Itinerary

  • Sedona Chamber of Commerce

    This quirky, drop-dead gorgeous town has tons to offer, from shops and galleries to unbelievable red rock hikes. But itā€™s also packed with unique, surprising history, as youā€™re about to discover. I hope youā€™re ready to explore a place like no other! Note: This 60+mile-long tour covers the essentials of Grand Canyon and Sedona in 2-3 hours

    10 minutes

  • N/A

    Find a spot to park, then hop out of the car and head for the Tlaquepaque Arts Shopping Village. This market is a Sedona must-see. Itā€™s absolutely full of shops and galleries featuring local arts and crafts, as well as plentiful food offerings if youā€™re feeling peckish.

    10 minutes

  • N/A

    At the bend in this road, youā€™ll find Margā€™s Draw Trail, one of Sedonaā€™s mid-length trails at 4 miles out and back. This trailā€™s famous for offering up-close views of Sedonaā€™s famous red rocks. If youā€™re here in the spring, you can also catch cactus flowers blooming along the trail!

    10 minutes

  • N/A

    The trail name has nothing to do with some unearthed Sinagua artifact. Itā€™s actually the title of a movie filmed in Sedona! See, long after the Sinagua vanished, Sedona became home to a handful of pioneer families. Among them: T.C. Schnebly, who saw a bright future for the community, even though it could barely even be called a community when he arrived. Schnebly built the areaā€™s first hotel and general store, and created the first post office in 1902 to put it on the grid! The problem? This place didnā€™t even have a name yet!

    10 minutes

  • Call Of The Canyon Picnic Site

    Sedona changed forever in 1923, when filmmaker Zane Grey arrived with a film crew and a dream. Here, Zane shot the silent film Call of the Canyon, a western about a soldier returning from war. He wanted creative freedom he couldnā€™t get in LA, and was captivated by Sedonaā€™s landscape.

    10 minutes

  • Chapel of the Holy Cross

    Back in 1931, the Empire State Building finished construction in New York. Uhhh soā€¦ what does that have to do with Sedona? Well, local rancher and sculptor Marguerite Staude saw that skyscraper and was so inspired she simply had to create something just as impressive in her home state of Arizona.

    10 minutes

  • N/A

    This is the trailhead for Cathedral Rock Trail, a steep 1.2-mile trek offering phenomenal vistas. Itā€™s considered a challenging hike, with 800 feet of elevation gain, so make sure youā€™re prepared if you decide to make the journey. Otherwise, you can simply enjoy the views of Cathedral Rock!

    5 minutes

  • N/A

    From here, you can get a great look at Courthouse Butte. These majestic formations were one of the main reasons Hollywood came to Sedona in the first place. They just seem to scream ā€œwild west,ā€ donā€™t they? If youā€™d like to get a closer look, you can access a couple of different trails from this parking lot.

    10 minutes

  • Village of Oak Creek

    Village of Oak Creek, known to locals as ā€œThe Village,ā€ this unincorporated community is chock full of shops and restaurants perfect for a post-tour break. The Village also boasts three huge golf courses for those who like to hit the links!

    5 minutes

  • N/A

    The easy-to-access, scenic vista of Loverā€™s Knoll is the perfect spot for a romantic photo op. For some folks, itā€™s also the ultimate outdoor wedding destination!

    10 minutes

  • N/A

    Here, youā€™ll find Pyramid Mountain Trailā€”named, of course, for that pyramid-shaped mountain directly in front of us. This 2-mile loop takes about an hour to hike and offers stupendous scenery the whole time. It also presents some insight into why some people consider this land sacred.

    5 minutes

  • N/A

    Itā€™s definitely worth the price, but if youā€™d rather not pay, youā€™ll have an option to turn around before the ticket booth.

    5 minutes

  • N/A

    This Crescent Moon Picnic Site, offers much more than just a great place for a snack. This creekside sanctuary boasts spectacular views and swimming as well! Cathedral Rock is clearly visible from here, and this is one of the most photographed views in Sedona! Chances are if youā€™ve seen photos of Sedona, one of them was shot from right here

    10 minutes

  • N/A

    This is Red Rock State Park, a small but mighty stretch of some of the prettiest wilderness in the Sedona area. This 286-acre park offers plentiful hiking and biking trails, picnic areas, and scenic vistas.

    10 minutes

    5 minutes

  • Lookout Studio

    Up ahead are two buildings perched on the canyonā€™s edge. The one you can see right now is Lookout Studio, and youā€™ll find one just a little beyond it called Kolb Studio.

    5 minutes

    For the next part of the tour, you'll hop on board the park's free shuttle. Don't worry, your audio tour guide will instruct you on exactly how to do this!

    5 minutes

    The next stop on your right is Pima Point, which sports one of the best views of Colorado. When youā€™re there, stop and listen. If the vistaā€™s quiet, you can hear the rushing sound of water moving along the river.

    10 minutes

  • Hermit's Rest

    So where does all this stuff get its name? Well, back in the mining days, one particular miner had no interest in being around other people. He far preferred the rhythms of nature. He spent most of his life living near this spot, content to while away his days with only the rocks and birds and squirrels to keep him company.

    5 minutes

Nice and easy

Published on Jul, 2024

Itā€™s easy and friendly, good narration and complete description of all the visited places, enough alternatives to make the tour.

Grand Canyon and Sedona Tour

Published on Jul, 2024

My family loves to do our own thing when we site see. This app allowed us to do just that without missing any of the popular parts of the attractions. It worked well for us and we will definitely use it again for our next vacation. I love the narration and the fact that I donā€™t have to click anything as we stroll along. It narrates automatically. Bring a charged battery pack for long tours as the gps may drain the battery.

Great way to see the Grand Canyon

Published on Feb, 2024

Walking the rim trail and seeing the sights was awe-inspiring. The stories on the audio tour were fun and engaging.

Great tour; easy to use.

Published on Feb, 2024

The app worked well. We didnā€™t follow it exactly because we didnā€™t know it included getting on a shuttle and riding. The stories were good, the directions were great, and itā€™s a favorable option to riding in a van with strangers for hours. For the price itā€™s a great value.

Great tour package

Published on Sep, 2023

Self-driving tour was easy to use and informative. My husband is very susceptible to motion sickness, so we did not want to book jeep tours or bus tours. We were able to have the "tour operator" in the car with us. You can stop as you like, or choose to continue on at each highlight. Highly recommend.
