Guide was very knowledgeable of the area. Gave plenty of time to view the areas. More space was needed in the van
This was a fun tour. Cody is a professional and knowledgeable guide. The tour was timely, plenty of snack and bathroom breaks, plenty of historical facts, and awesome views of the South Rim of the Grand Canyon with bonus stops in Sedona to see the Red Rocks. Overall great experience.
This day trip was absolutely fantastic! Cody was prompt for pickup. The ride was smooth allowing for quick relief stops and informative history along the way. The canyons and Sedona were very beautiful! Cody was very clear with instructions and time frame expectations. It was a great experience!
Cody was very professional and knowledgeable.
This was a long but amazing experience with Cody running the show. Because there were 3 couples in the van everything ran smoothly and on time.
Amazing trip from beginning to end! Excellent and experienced tour guide/driver/day planner/fellow adventurer!! Unforgettable sights. Highly recommended.
Amazing tour! Be prepared for a long day, but well worth it! Cody was very knowledgeable about the area!
Great tour! Our tour was with 6 other tourists in a small luxury van (8 total - room for 12) Cody was the best! Very knowledgeable and friendly. Also very efficient. He monitored road construction traffic to find the fastest routes so we could enjoy the most time at the Grand Canyon and in Sedona. Tour even included one of the most scenic routes from the Grand Canyon and Sedona. Simply beautiful! Drop off and pick up at our hotel was so convenient. Rest stops were plenty. It was so nice to just leave the driving and logistics to Cody so that we can enjoy the Grand Canyon and Sedona worry-free! A full size lunch was included! Wraps, sandwiches or salads with a drink. Nap on the way back to your hotel was also included! If you want to experience one of the seven wonders of the world, this tour is the one you want! Thanks, Cody, for making our tour so memorable!
