Grand Canyon tours from Flagstaff

One long day that takes in the whole drive: the canyon from the East Rim and the South Rim, ancient ruins, lava fields and the volcanoes north of Flagstaff, with a stop at the Cameron Trading Post on the Navajo Nation.

You're picked up at your hotel in Flagstaff or Sedona, so nobody has to drive or find parking at the rim.

Several viewpoints inside the national park, plus the sights on the way: ancient Native ruins, a volcanic lava field and the historic Cameron Trading Post.

Pickup and drop-off at hotels within Flagstaff or Sedona city limits, and water is on board.

The National Park entrance fee, lunch, snacks and drinks are all in the price, and the group stays small, with no more than 10 people in the van.

The guide drives the whole way and talks you through each viewpoint.

A narrated day trip to the South Rim in an air-conditioned vehicle, with binoculars, snacks, bottled water and handouts to take home.

The guide explains the geology and history at each stop.

A smaller group, usually no more than 10 guests, with a professional guide, hotel pickup in Sedona or Flagstaff and water along the way.

One day covers the Grand Canyon, Wupatki's ancient pueblos and Sunset Crater Volcano, and entry fees to all three are included.

The operator runs it as a Christian tour.

Several stops along the South Rim and time for souvenir shopping at the historic Navajo trading post at Cameron, fully narrated by your guide.

The vehicle seats no more than 14, and you're picked up at your hotel.
