Eric was organized, friendly, and informative. He knew so much about the Grand Canyon and took us to the best south rim spots to educate us and show us the best views. He supplies too notch binoculars for primo viewing well into the canyon. He provided snacks and drinks including hot fresh coffee that was better than the hotel coffee! He informed us about the geology, the flora and fauna, and the indigenous people of the area. The van was clean comfortable and organized. Five stars in every way—-we also ended with a tasty lunch at a restaurant that allowed for multiple options…. Thanks Eric!

Eric has such a wonderful set up with a comfortable air conditioned van. He also has a smart beverage and snack system in the back to fuel up during the trip. His enthusiasm and knowledge are top notch as he took us from stop to stop. My daughter and I learned so much on his tour. Highly recommend this more private approach to seeing the Grand Canyon.
