What people are saying about Oak Creek Canyon

Scott Day, our guide picked us up right on time. We were the first to be picked up of our group of 10. Van was clean and comfortable. Great group of 10 people! Scott pointed out sights along the way to Horseshoe Bend and Antelope Canyon. He knew a lot about the Arizona countryside and the geology and plants of the region. Gaining this new knowledge from an expert guide/ outdoorsman made the entire excursion more enjoyable. There were adequate restroom breaks and even a stop for shopping for Navajo crafts and jewelry, as well as a stop for photos at Vermillion Cliffs. The trip was well orchestrated with lunch preordered off of a menu with several choices, scheduled between Horseshoe Bend and Antelope Canyon. The ride back to Sedona was exceedingly windy but we made it safely with Scott’s expert driving. We arrived back at the designated time. Scott was amazing and paid clise attention to everyone’s comfort and experience. Could not have asked for s better group or a better guide.

Al was informative, funny and very helpful. Lots of anecdotes and trivia made it interesting, start to finish. He kept us safe all day at every vantage point. Really enjoyed our day at the Grand Canyon.
