Bright Angel Trail Tours

This was my first time to the Grand Canyon. Loved my tour of the Grand Canyon. Our guide was very knowledgeable humorous. Thank you to the tour Back Road Safari company.

Amazing experience! Jon was our guide - with 28 years experience leading groups into the canyon, he had it spot on. From pre-trip communication to pick-up to the hike itself, everything was fantastic. We couldn't have asked for more. If you're thinking about doing it, JUST BOOK IT. You won't regret it.

We had an absolutely fantastic time hiking the Grand Canyon! The weather couldn’t have been more beautiful, with passing thunderstorms and the most incredible rainbows adding to the experience. Our guide, Kevin, was a true wealth of knowledge and so gracious about letting us go at our own pace. The breathtaking views, unforgettable adventure, and time together as a family created memories we’ll cherish forever. Truly an experience we’ll never forget!

This was the highlight of my vacation. Jon was an incredibly knowledgeable and experienced guide. He provided all the equipment needed for the hike and gave tips on how and why to use all the equipment.Along with equipment expert knowledge of the canyon and the best picture spots were provided all throughout the hike.He provided a one of a kind experience, you'd be crazy not to take this offer if youve never hiked the grand canyon before.The only regret I have is I cant give more than 5 stars!Truly an unforgettable experience, thank you for the wonderful time!

Excellent service from our driver Carlos and our guide Scarlett, highly recommended.

Trip of a lifetime. Worth every penny to see a world wonder. Brandon and Glyn were excellent and their hospitality was great and very knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend for anyone who plans to take this trip

The canyon is just spectacular. And the audioguide is really good - I’d recommend to pre-download it as there is not always connection.

Werner was our guide and he was great . Nice ride through the forest. It was just us and saw no other people. Took a short hike where there were no other people where we ended up. Very knowledgeable. Great way to see the Grand Canyon! We are in sixties and hike was doable!

We were with Francesca for a hike down into the canyon (about a mile) and we stopped at Dessert view for a relaxing lunch and sight seeing, with several more iconic views along the south rim. Francesca is extremely familiar with both the canyon and the local Navajo history along with several species of plant life and how they rejuvenate the forest after a wildfire along with how these plants can help your personal health, both mental and physical. She was great to spend the day with.

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.

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!

My hike with Jon Shkolnik on Tuesday, August 18, was an extraordinary experience—far more powerful and memorable than I had anticipated.From beginning to end, Jon was exceptional. We started promptly at 2:00 p.m. and finished exactly on schedule at 9:00 p.m. Throughout the hike, he established a pace that seemed perfectly calibrated to me, both during the descent into the canyon and, more importantly, during the demanding climb back out. I never felt rushed, yet we kept moving steadily and efficiently.The scenery was magnificent, but what struck me just as deeply was the extraordinary stillness of the canyon. At times, the silence was almost deafening. Jon understood when to provide insight and when simply to allow the canyon to speak for itself.He kept me well fed and properly hydrated throughout the hike and continually demonstrated both professionalism and sound judgment. His knowledge of the canyon—its geology, natural history, environment, and character—added enormously to the experience. His explanations during both the descent and ascent gave me a much deeper appreciation of what I was seeing.Most importantly, Jon made a challenging hike feel safe, well managed, and thoroughly enjoyable. He was attentive without hovering, knowledgeable without lecturing, and personable throughout seven remarkable hours.The views were unforgettable, but Jon’s skill, preparation, and understanding of his guest made the experience exceptional. I could not recommend him more highly.

We had an amazing experience hiking the Grand Canyon with Kevin from Only Grand Canyon. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the canyon, its history, geology, and wildlife, but what really stood out was how fun and personable he was throughout the entire hike. I was especially nervous about some of the drop-offs, and he was unbelievably patient and reassuring with me. He never made me feel embarrassed or rushed and took the time to make sure I felt comfortable and safe every step of the way. That made such a difference and allowed me to actually relax and enjoy the experience. Besides bringing gear for us to use, Kevin gave us extra water and incredible snack bags!!! He didn't leave one stone unturned! Having dinner in the canyon was really special and the wraps Kevin prepared were fresh and delicious! It was such a unique and memorable experience and definitely something we will never forget! I would highly recommend the sunset hike with Kevin from Only Grand Canyon. He made our Grand Canyon hike truly unforgettable!

It was a magical day! The scenery is incredible and the guides Gia and Branden are great! I highly recommend this activity!

Taylor was our guide and was informative, friendly and knowledgeable. The scenes were breathtaking of course. Would highly recommend!
