Hosted by local owner opereror Dynamic Journey Tours.
For those that are seeking a more genuine tour, with a locally based tour company, this day is designed to focus solely on the Grand Canyon coming from Sedona, along the way up we drive within the glorious Oak Creek Canyon, passing through Flagstaff while sharing geology and history info the entire way. We then stop for lunch at Cameron Trading post within the historic Dine' (Navajo) reservation then enter first into the East Gate. We then visit 4 points of interests along the canyon and learn the geology, geography, and history/mystery of the Natives and settlers, finally exiting the park at the South Gate. It's biggest advantage is a local guide that has studied all the relevant subjects, making the tour as comprehensive as possible and visiting more sites than most other tours, thus having the most amount of experience one could have while visiting the Grand Canyon!
Pickup included
A quick drive and geologic and historical lesson while we travel onto the Colorado Plateau. We discuss the settler history, unique geology and experience a major climate change in less than 20 minutes.
Experience the wonderful colors of the painted desert while we drive across the Navajo nation to the East entrance of the Park. We talk about how this seemingly barren, yet beautiful land, is home to the oldest group of natives in North America, and the legends that unfold.
A break for lunch. As well as the best place to buy native art and see souviners.
