Excellent tour if you want to do the Grand Canyon in one day. It’s a long trip (16h journey) and you have to leave early so be prepared. The guide Katie and the driver Michael were amazing!! Katie went through all the instructions, safety rules and timings. You also learn some history about Las Vegas and route 66! My pick up time was at 5:30am at the Bally’s hotel. You can pre order your breakfast and I went for the continental option which is a yogurt and a tasty muffin. For lunch you get a good sized sandwich and a pack of crisps. You can also order some diner on the way back. We stopped near Seligman (route 66) for a break and a gift shop. I didn’t take the option for the guided tour as I wanted to hike on my own and it was absolutely fine. It takes between 2 and 3 hours from Mather point to Bright angel depending on if you spend time taking photos! On a overall, long trip but worth it! I went during January so it was cold but sunny so absolutely fine!

Guide Robert is friendly and hospitalized! I thought it would give us more time to explore ourselves. But the guide said there are always missing people, so it would be better to stay with the crew. We took a lot of beautiful pictures! If you like picture taking, it’s 100% worth it! Don't even need to mention how breathtaking the national park is!

We had a good time. This trip became a wonderful memory thanks to Laila?Layla?Reila?! Thank you so much for the tour, you were fantastic. We can recommend this tour with confidence. We also appreciate a bus driver.

Awesome guide. Spent more time at Hoover dam than I expected and that was great. Had plenty of time to enjoy the Grand Canyon. Was wonderful. No complaints at all.

We had an amazing day visiting Antelope Canyon, Horseshoe Bend and Grand Canyon. Our guides Rigo and Tim were absolutely fab - thank you!
