5.00This is a lovely trip. Take your camera and lots of SD space! I ran out. Kind, caring and our guide was quite full nof knowledge. You can do this solo or with a group. We even had time for a little stop that I found exactly what I wanted to buy for my granddkids. Also, I found 3 Penny Press Machines in the desert. this was a bonus for me. Also had the best Prickley Pear Lemonade and Peanut Butter Cup Cookie from the Cantina and Bakery.
A must do tour

5.00This tour and tour company was the best private excursion our group has ever had. Our tour guide Eddie was very attentive, respectful, accommodating to any needs we had. Eddie was very knowledgeable about the sites and provided a lot of information which was very interesting. We believe this tour company and tour guide should be a must to see the sites in Arizona.
