What people are saying about Scottsdale, Arizona

Bobby was a great tour guide. He knew all the best places to pull off for picture-taking. When we got up to Sedona, he pointed out the t-shirt shop with the best selection & prices, the restaurant with the best sweet potato fries and even the best bathrooms on the strip. He was always there offering to take our picture. On the drive up, he kept us entertained with stories of past tour guests and tips & tricks for visiting Sedona. 5 stars!

Even though it was raining pretty hard, Frank did an excellent job of staying ahead of the rain and getting us outside. He showed us native Arizona cacti and other plants. We then went on the Dolly for a trip around Canyon Lake. It was awesome even in the rain. Finally we stopped at a wonderful restaurant in Tortilla Flats that had prickly pear lemonade and prickly pear ice cream! Just a wonderful day.

Our guide Frank was great explaining about Phoenix's natural habitat and the different tribes while going to this Apache Trail & steamboat excursion. It was beautiful & relaxing. Happy I picked this. Enjoy!

The entire day was very enjoyable. Our driver, Noel was a wealth of knowledge and very accommodating. Sedona is so beautiful and so much to see, but with Noel help we accomplished what we could.

Tayler was excellent! Very informative! Learned a lot!
