Such a perfect way to hike Grand Canyon
Kevin was a fantastic guide, and my husband, my 17 year old son, and I all agree our day couldn’t have been better. He paced our hike perfectly, and kept us going at a pace which somehow worked for all of us, taught us a bunch, and the food!!! We all were well fed w snacks and lunch, even the gluten free and dairy free folks.
I’ve hiked Grand Canyon years ago and still to this day remember being terrified. Not today!! I felt safe every step of the way. If you are thinking of hiking with them, DO IT!! You will be so glad you did.

Kevin said he was impressed that everybody did so well. Thanks so much for spending your vacation time with us, and we really hope those photos will last a lifetime.

A fantastic experience from start to finish
The perfect way to experience the Grand Canyon! From start to finish every detail was perfect. Jon answered all of our questions before booking and was flexible when we asked to change the date of our hike. Kevin, our guide was on time, provided good background details, made sure we were comfortable and safe throughout our hike. The scenery, the day, the hike all amazing!
Operator response

Amazing and Breathtaking - worth every penny
We signed up to take a private day hike (me, my wife and 25 year old daughter). All of us are inexperienced hikers, but in relatively good shape. Kevin was our guide and he was absolutely incredible. Experienced, funny, kind and 100% focused on us having a great experience. We were so lucky to have him as he expertly navigated us through a trail that was covered in ice and snow at the top and then mostly mud. His humor and knowledge made the entire hike one of the most memorable experiences we have had. I cannot recommend Only Grand Canyon enough.

July South Rim Grand Canyon Tour
This was the highlight of our trip! We are a family of five, 2 adults and 3 boys all in their early twenties/late teens and we all agreed this tour is the only way to hike the Grand Canyon. Our tour guide, Kevin, was amazing & made sure we had a great experience. He provided tons of information & facts along the hike & also kept us well hydrated, well fed & safe. We celebrated a big birthday & Kevin had a nice surprise for us at sunset. He was a great guide and extra bonus was that he was a great chef & photographer as well!
Operator response
Kevin said the birthday party was really really great and that you guys enjoyed the sunset. Thanks so much for spending your vacation time with us and we appreciate your generosity.

Incredible Family Hike Experience
I can’t express how amazing our experience was from start to finish. My mom has always loved the Grand Canyon and we thought it would be really special to have all 3 generations of us hike into it together for my daughter’s first trip to see it. Jon walked me through everything and made us feel that the trip would be catered to suit us as the ages range from 11-73. When we met on the day of the trip I could tell he had remembered all of the details I had told him over the phone.
He truly cares that you have a safe and wonderful time. They also have backpacks with everything you could possibly need with amazing snacks! Our guide picked us up in Flagstaff and was with us the whole time. Kristen was truly awesome looking out for us, walking us through any points that made us nervous or were a little harder (going up), and she is just fun to be around. Hiking into the canyon is alone an awe inspiring experience but Jon and his crew still managed to make it even better. Thank you so much from our family for this memorable and perfect day!
Operator response
That really was a perfect day and I'm so glad you appreciate our attention to detail. Just trying to give you the best vacation ever. Enjoy those crazy photos and I know the kids will remember this forever, JON
