Overview

Take a tour that lets you immerse yourself in the park. Our guides are master naturalists, botanists, geologists, historians, and - most importantly - relentlessly curious! This is not just a sightseeing tour, it's a day all about learning and connection.

Marvel at the vastness of the Grand Canyon's panoramic vistas, the stunning layers of colorful rock formations, and the sheer magnitude of its cliffs.

Learn about how the canyon was formed, the park’s flora and fauna, park history, and indigenous people! Highlights may include Yavapai Point, Mather Point, Grandview Point, Moran Point, Tusayan Ruins, & Desert View and more!

Groups are capped at 8 hikers. If we don't meet the minimum number of spots booked, registrants will be offered an option to make the tour private for an additional charge or cancel for a full refund.

Please note that new National Park fees may apply for international visitors. If applicable, this fee is collected in-destination, not when you book.
