Privé-dagtour naar Grand Canyon

Wow! He’s amazing. Chris was so informative, flexible with children, and knowledgeable . He had so many snacks available for kids. He took us to the secret spots and gave us VIP treatment at EL Tovar restaurant. He recommended places that supported small business or native made items. 1000/10 stars!

Our family has a fantastic day on the private tour with Chris. He had water, Gatorade and snacks. He was very informative and took us to some amazing spots where he captured photos of our family! His knowledge of the area and the history was something we appreciated. Lunch at El Tovar was delicious and we even got to see a piece of culture with a performance of the Hoop Dance outside. Truly a bucket list and memorable day for our family!

My wife and I had the extreme privilege of spending an amazing day with Chris Kelly from Grand Canyon Journeys. Chris picked us up from our hotel in Sedona promptly at 7 am and we headed up to the Grand Canyon through Oak Creek canyon. Chris had plenty of water, Gatorade, and snacks for us and stopped at clean bathrooms along the way. He is so personable and shared his incredible depth of knowledge throughout the day. We stopped at many overlooks with beautiful views of the canyon and were able to get so many great photos. The trip is absolutely worth it and we had the best experience possible! Chris is such a professional and we look forward to our next trip to Sedona and another adventure with Chris.

My family and I booked a private, full-day tour with Grand Canyon Journeys from Sedona to the Grand Canyon—and it exceeded every expectation. Our guide, Nina, was nothing short of incredible. Her knowledge is truly remarkable—she brought every part of the journey to life, from the landscapes of Sedona to the awe-inspiring vistas of the Grand Canyon and everything in between. We made a stop at a local trading post, where Nina thoughtfully guided us on what to look for—no pressure, no sales pitch, just helpful context. Throughout the day, she kept us comfortable and prepared with drinks and snacks. She even arranged a lovely lunch for us at the historic El Tovar restaurant. Wasn’t sure what to expect food-wise, and we were pleasantly surprised by how delicious everything was. At the canyon, she curated several perfectly timed stops, each offering a different breathtaking perspective. And as a bonus—she’s a phenomenal photographer. She captured our family in ways we never could have on our own (our next holiday card photo is officially taken care of!). Nina also went above and beyond to accommodate my 77-year-old mom, who has limited mobility and some difficulty with higher elevations. At the same time, she made sure my husband, daughter, and I had opportunities to explore and walk a bit more. Net net, she made the day enjoyable for all of us. And while a two-hour drive each way might sound long, Nina made it fly by. Her stories, knowledge, and warm personality kept us completely engaged—you truly lose track of time. This was more than just a tour—it was a meaningful, unforgettable experience that our family will forever remember. Definitely the highlight of our trip. Highly recommend!

Our day started bright and early with a prompt pickup from our hotel in Sedona — and Chris set the tone perfectly from the very first mile. On the drive up to the Grand Canyon, he shared fascinating knowledge about the extinct volcanoes near Flagstaff, the Little Colorado River Gorge, and the extraordinary geology of the Canyon itself. He clearly knows and loves this landscape, and it shows. Every stop along the way felt thoughtfully planned — from the overlooks to his spot-on lunch recommendations at the El Tovar in Grand Canyon Village. What really made the trip special was Chris himself. He's knowledgeable but completely laid-back, easy to talk to, and genuinely fun to spend a day with. If you're looking for the perfect day trip from Sedona to the Grand Canyon, stop searching and book with Chris at Grand Canyon Journeys. You'll be glad you did.

My experience was fantastic. Chris was very knowledgeable and treated us very well. Took us to the best lookouts at the canyon and best spots for pictures. Booked us a great lunch. Took us to Williams out of his way so we could see the town. We appreciated very much. Was very kind of him. You can't go wrong with his tour.

My experience was exceptional from start to finish. We had the pleasure of Nina as our tour guide and I could not have asked for a better experience. Nina was an amazing guide, very knowledgeable, open to any and all questions, and a fabulous story teller. She has immense knowledge of the Grand Canyon and history of the area which was invaluable to our experience.

Nina was our tour guide and she was amazing!! Incredibly knowledgeable and accommodating. Made the 2 hour trip from Sedona to the Grand Canyon entertaining with historical stories and facts about the area we were located in. I would 1000% do another tour with this company and Nina!

My family and I had a wonderful time together. Nina was awesome. Very informative and we learned a lot.

First time out west with the family. Chris took care of all the logistics and Nina picked us up right on time at our resort in Sedona. We had a spectacular day with Nina who was so attentive to our needs the entire day. On top of that she was informative, insightful and best of all, she made it fun and educational. Worth every penny and wouldn't hesitate for a second to strongly recommend Grand Canyon Journeys for a truly memorable experience.
