  • Yes we CANyon!!!!!! Only people to hike with!

    I’m not sure there are words I can use to describe how amazing our experience was. It truly beat all expectations! From the first check in with owner John describing our day, talking through options, and making recommendations for our family to enjoy the other days we would be in the area; to meeting up with Kevin and Christy the day of the hike and oh my lands - what an adventure we will never forget. These two truly love the canyon and their jobs and it showed. Their enthusiasm was contagious. When they say they have everything you’ll need - believe them. (We are still eating off the amazing snack bags two days later!!). They work at your pace and abilities and whether you do 1 mile or 10 miles… they make sure it’s magical and you leave with your heart, soul, and body full! By the time we left them, I felt like they were part of our family. Another thing we would recommend is late Aug - Sept for weather. It was warm at times but the night time was absolutely perfect! Giving an idea of the dynamic in our family - we were a party of 6 with ages ranging from 9 to 70 years old. We aren’t particularly as active as we should be and I was a little nervous going into this adventure. Kevin and Christy worked together to ensure everyone was safe and having a good time. Took as many breaks as needed - especially on the way back up - and kept conversations, Grand Canyon facts and stories (even if some of them were old liar legends), and some sing alongs through the adventure. (Not required but helped with distractions during the hard times.) Oh and the photos you will get! Kevin is a wizard with the panos and amazing family/canyon photos. The icing on the cake was when my 9-year-old was struggling and done at the end (his body on eastern time zone, he had pushed himself through every step, and it was dark) but we still had about 20 mins left up to the rim - Kevin and Christy we’re supportive, patient, encouraging, and helped everyone make it through. He was inconsolable but that didn’t stop them from trying! So amazing! I literally could use all 20k characters to brag on these two but I’m sure people have already stopped reading. LOL. I would literally hire them on each and every hike we ever do. I hope they stop by when they get a chance to make it out to the Smoky Mountains one day! Seriously - hire them now!!

    I have hiked many times prior to this trip, although I was traveling with young adults and wanted a local professional to lead the way. It was a great decision. The summer temperature was very moderate but the sun is strong. Doing a late afternoon hike until sunset was ideal. Our guide Kevin was more than perfect!

    Entire experience was absolutely incredible. If we could rate higher than 5 stars, we would. Jon and his staff and guides provided the highest level of care and commitment to ensuring a great environment with spectacular views and hiking for different levels of hiking experience.

  • Best way to experience the Grand Canyon!

    Everything about this experience was thoughtful and well done. From John’s phone call right after booking where he gave us great tips for our trip as a whole, to our guide Kevin who picked us up and made sure we had an amazing Canyon experience. Highly, highly recommend!

    Trip description promises a lot, and then delivers more. John took us on a hike of a lifetime, and entertained us the whole time. This is a rigorously fun experience. High expectations will be met, and in our experience, expounded upon. Grand Canyon is on the top of the list of places to experience in the world, and this is a highly recommended way to do it.
