Overview

Join Canyon Ministries on a Christian tour of the Grand Canyon, featuring a biblical creation perspective! A Grand Canyon morning rim tour offers a peaceful escape with fewer crowds and a tranquil landscape. Witness the canyon’s transformation as soft blues and purples from early morning shadows shift to vibrant reds and oranges, with sunlight gradually revealing its breathtaking depths. This tour includes stops at 4–5 of the most stunning locations along the South Rim’s east side along Desert View Drive. Travel in comfort aboard our well-equipped tour van, designed to access every viewpoint in the park. At each stop, step out to take in awe-inspiring views, explore the overlooks, and engage in insightful teaching that connects what you see with the canyon’s story. Your guide will share fascinating details about the Grand Canyon’s geology, flora, fauna, and human history, all interwoven with the biblical account of Creation and the Flood as recorded in the Bible's book of Genesis.

Meeting points

The meeting location is in the park, at the flag pole just outside the Grand National Park Visitor Center building. The Grand Canyon Visitor Center is the main one inside the park, not the IMAX building outside the park in Tusayan. After entry, follow the signs or park map to the Visitor Center.

End point

This activity ends back at the meeting point.

Itinerary

  • Grand Canyon South Rim

    Our biblical creation tours of the Grand Canyon National Park's South Rim include multiple stops to the very best overlooks with tons of insightful teaching throughout the day. The order below is a "typical" route, focusing on the park's east side along Desert View Drive. Due to changing weather, seasons, or the people flow in the park that day, we may have alternate stops other than what we provide below. Our tours are not "scripted", so guides have the freedom and flexibility to respond to changes in the park as well as your own individual group dynamic. Our tour does not include entry fee into the Grand Canyon National Park, which you may pay at the gate or use a National Park Pass. Entry is good for 7 days of unlimited use.

    5 minutes

  • Grand Canyon Visitor Center South Rim

    Our tour meets at the flag pole just outside the Grand Canyon Visitor Center building INSIDE the park at tour start time.

    10 minutes

  • Yavapai Point

    Starting near the Grand Canyon Visitor Center, our first stop provides you with an introduction to the Grand Canyon and its geology. We will lay the foundation for the rest of the tour regarding the biblical events of the Flood found in Genesis and the significance of what we'll be exploring throughout our tour.

    30 minutes

  • Grandview Point

    Learn about the exciting Wild West people history at Grandview Point, with talks on mining both copper and tourist pockets in the early days of the Grand Canyon National Park development. Enjoy wide vistas and the distant Colorado River as we talk about the significance of the canyon and whether that river has the power to cut and remove this material.

    30 minutes

  • Lipan Point

    While taking in fantastic river views, including one of the canyon's largest rapids, we will talk about the Native American Ancestral Puebloans who lived far below on the Unkar Delta. At Lipan Point, we will also showcase the geological Great Unconformity, Cambrian Explosion, and the Tapeats Sandstone—all of which provide fantastic observable evidence for a global Flood. Learn about the mechanisms of the Flood from its onset, and how we believe the sedimentary rock layers were deposited through this year-long destructive event of biblical proportions!

    45 minutes

  • Navajo Point

    A lot of water, in a little bit of time. Learn about the carving of the Grand Canyon by what we call the "lake spillover" or "breached dam" model, something first proposed in geology all the way back in the 1800s and still held by both creation and some secular geologists alike today. See beyond the Grand Canyon to the distant Vermilion and Echo Cliffs of the Marble Platform and southeast to parts of the Painted Desert. Learn about the nearby historic Desert View Watchtower, completed in 1932.

    30 minutes

  • N/A

    Conclude our tour with a stop at Moran Point, with views of the river, rapids, and a beautiful landscape before heading back to the Visitor Center to drop you off.

    45 minutes

  • Grand Canyon Visitor Center South Rim

    After the tour, our guide will drop you off back at your vehicle at the Grand Canyon National Park Visitor Center, or wherever else you may have parked that day.

Just exactly what I was looking for..

Published on Oct, 2024

This tour was an absolutely amazing experience and just what I was looking for! Luke was a wealth of knowledge and shared with such enthusiasm! He engaged the group in encouraging our participation! I learned important facts about the Bible that I didn't know or didn't remember! The whole tour was so incredibly thought-provoking and perfect!

Great tour from a biblical perspective

This was like 4 hour tour. Our driver was Diana and she was fantastic. I am visually impaired she was very helpful and made sure I seen as much as I could besides were beautiful. A little bit of rough walking but not too bad. I would certainly do this again everything about it was positive

Highly Recommend

It was a great experience for our family. Our guide was warm, friendly, and knowledgeable. We definitely recommend using the Canyon Ministries to be your tour guide at the GC.

Must do!!

Published on Oct, 2024

Luke gave us a very detailed history of the canyon and was friendly and helpful in every way. It was my second visit to GC but this time was so much more enlightening and will long stick in my memory!
