Andrew was a phenomenal driver. He went above and beyond to take photos of our family at multiple stops, help my elderly mother up and down the few stairs in and out of the pink jeep, customize our trip to our likings, take us on small trails to special lookout points for little-known photo opportunities, and he was very knowledgeable and passionate about the park history. We were comfortable with the cooler temperatures at the end of our journey thanks to the Jeep zipper flaps being shut and by wearing layers. He had the heater on as well. Our small lap dog (in her carrier) was welcomed. All around, a 5-star experience! Worth the money. Be sure to bring some cash on you to tip your driver if you’d like.
Wonderful experience

We only had a day to explore the Grand Canyon and didn’t know where to start so we chose this tour and we were very pleasantly surprised. Our guide Frank was a walking encyclopedia!!! He was a wealth of knowledge and we seen way more than we could’ve on our own. I highly recommend this tour but I’d ask for Frank!
A Great time
