Great Venture Tours - Sedona, Arizona

Daniel Reed

Tour guide Mark Friedman gave us an over the top experience on our tour of the Grand Canyon. We stopped at multiple places along the way including a lava field park which was incredible in itself. Another stop was an ancient Pueblo museum and lunch (provided by Great Venture) at an Indian reservation. A way over the top experience! Would be a must for anyone traveling in the area. Way more to say but it’s a review

Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bend from Sedona. Our tour of Antelope Canyon with Sheldon was nothing short of fantastic. His informative and passionate guiding transformed a beautiful location into a deeply enriching experience. He is very knowledgeable and we learned a lot. He was so attentive throughout. Thank you Sheldon for helping create a lifelong memory. If you’re planning a trip to Antelope Canyon, I highly recommend requesting Sheldon as your guide. He is simply fabulous!

Stanton was a great guide! He was knowledgeable, funny, and very kind. We did the Antelope Canyon tour that included Horseshoe Bend and Glen Canyon Dam and it was so much fun! I loved that we were offered water, snacks, and our price included a light lunch at Gone West in Page, AZ. Leland was our Navajo guide in Antelope Canyon and he helped capture beautiful photos for us!

We also joined a second tour, South Rim Grand Canyon and our guide, Brian, was the coolest person I've ever met. He shared some stories about growing up on the reservation, some lovely anecdotes, and he was so hilarious and kind! We made a bunch of stops along the south rim and the Grand Canyon literally took my breath away.

Both trips included stops at Cameron Trading Post so it was fun to window shop during the first tour and then actually buying things during the next tour ? Don't forget to get some Navajo fry bread. Yum.

I felt very safe and felt my personal items were safe during both tours. I would highly recommend Great Venture Tours!

We signed up for the hiking tour of the Grand Canyon and went last Sunday. Karen and I had a ‘private tour’ as no one else signed up. Sheldon picked us up at The Pines early in the morning and we were on our way. He truly wanted to make this experience the best it could be for us. Sheldon was so knowledgeable about the many areas we passed through on our journey, including our destination. We had a phenomenal day of hiking to Ooh Ahh Point and back. We saw a family of Big Horn Sheep right on the trail with us AND a family of Elk enjoying greenery along the parking lot. Sheldon was a fantastic guide and he made our experience so memorable!!

I was very pleased with my sightseeing tour overall. There is so much to know about Sedona, its history and many landmarks. Our tour guide, Mark Friedman was very knowledgeable and purposeful to teach us all we needed to know along the way. He was also thoughtful of our needs and fun to be around. I would recommend this tour before doing others and going out on you own. The adventure gave us a lot to go on for the rest of our trip.

I had a great time seeing Northern Arizona and the Grand Canyon with our small group. Our guide, Sheldon, was unwavering in his ability to provide information and exposition about the Canyon and the many wonderful experiences along the way. He was also endlessly accommodating to me and the rest of the group and provided a fun, friendly and casual environment for all of us. It is clear that, although he has guided many groups on many tours, his favorite tour is the one he is doing at the time he is doing it. It was a truly enriching experience on many levels and I will be forever grateful for it.

I’m from Japan.
First of all,this tour was so excellent awesome especially the guide whose name Brian Benally from Navaho. Pretty much knowledge and his experiences mixed up and talked us while driving us to each spot.
Also their staff quickly response from my suddenly request which is rescheduled tour the day before.
I’ll definitely recommend this tour company.

The trip was fantastic. I was picked up in Sedona and we made our to Flagstaff for the other participants. The tour guide was Andrea, she was great. She shared knowledge about Arizona vegetation, topography, rock and volcanic formation and much more. She is very knowledgeable. And also has great personality. I enjoyed the small group size versus large tour I took from Las Vegas. I recommend the tour and if Andrea is your guide you will love love love it
