My husband Don surprised my girlfriends and I with this excursion. It was the perfect amount of time for the sights we saw. Our guide Frank Salle, is a very interesting person to spend the day with. He uses his knowledge and passion for Arizona to ensure you have a terrific experience. I have been to AZ many times, and learned a lot of things I never knew before. He pointed out the old stage coach trail that I passed many times never knowing about its history. Talked about all the dessert plants, and the history of all the places we visited. He even showed us how to take great panoramic photos with our phones. He definitely enjoys what he is doing and didn’t rush the stops at all. I would definitely ask for him on our next adventure! - Denise P

We originally did this tour last year through another company but the weather put a damper on our tour. This year was better! Our group first went to Montezuma Castle, and then we toured Sedona a bit. The Red Rocks are beautiful when the weather is good. We ended the day in Jerome. Our guide, Jeff, also showed us some scenic views so we appreciated that! Definitely a must-do!

We had a brilliant time. It was helped by reading the information given before going, like take some warm clothing with you as it could be chilly.

Frank was an amazing tour guide! He was very knowledgeable about the history of Arizona, the native plants, the land formations, restaurants, and just about everything related to our tour. Montezuma's Castle was fascinating, Sedona - simply gorgeous, the Chapel of the Holy Cross - breathtaking, and Jerome at the top of the mountain - quaint with incredible views! We all enjoyed the entire tour and felt completely safe with Frank behind the wheel. A must do if you are visiting the Phoenix area.

It’s amazing journey and breathtaking experience in sedona, jerome and other places. We went to see the Montezuma castle and discovered the way ancient civilisation used to live and castle is testament to it. Amazing place

If your latin, middle eastern or black, don’t even think about booking Jeff from Across Arizona Tours. He is so condescending and RACIST. 5 mins within meeting us asked us where we were “actually from” and hoped that “we weren’t thinking of staying.” The funniest part is that we are two big city gals originally from Toronto, Canada and appreciate our big city alot more than the vast wasteland of Phoenix and neighboring areas. Theres nothing to do incomparison and the tour was a huge money grab. You have zero time to actually hike up the trails at the vortex of sedona. Your longest time spent is at the souvenir shops and even that isn’t long. Max 20mins in each spot. They spent more time driving us than sightseeing. Your better off driving yourself!!! The best part was when I confronted Carole Stapleton about the racist remarks she played stupid and gaslit us about what actually transpired. I normally don’t write reviews but he was atrocious. NEVER AGAIN!
