My family did a private Grand Canyon tour and it was an easy going day with added entertainment from Chris. Lots of time spent driving, nothing strenuous. We made about 5-6 stops, some walking. Chris was very informative and kept us laughing, he also provided water and snacks. Lunch was nice and cozy. Gift shops were nice as well. The vehicle was comfortable. Thank you Chris for a lovely day!

Chris is an amazing, experienced guide and I cannot recommend him enough. He knew all the great spots to visit, how to manage the Park at an insanely busy time of year and was great company for me and my kideos.

Don’t think twice!! We have such a fun and engaging day with Chris this past November. He knows so much about everything, and he does a great job at giving you flexibility to explore on your own, while also managing a packed schedule and staying on time. There’s no way you can have a bad day with Chris!

This is definitely the way to go especially if traveling with aging Parents. Chris knows almost everyone and everything about the Grand Canyon, even the servers at El Tovar. Do yourself a favor and let Chris pick you up, drive, narrate, take you to the best spots and then drive you back. Well worth the expense, just in time saved researching everything he knew to do.

Chris was a great tour guide. He had our meal planned to avoid getting stuck in crowds. He was very knowledgeable and even kept our 3 teens entertained. The views of Grand Canyon and from the switchbacks between Flagstaff and Sedona were beautiful
