Things to do in Sedona, Arizona (AZ): The Best Bus Tours

April 21, 2022 Viva Honore

Sedona is a true oasis, a vacationer’s paradise in the middle of the Arizona desert. Here, you’ll find resorts and spas, canyons and red rock formations. Bell Rock and Oak Creek Canyon are great hiking spots, and the dramatic architecture of the Chapel of the Holy Cross is a religious experience itself. When the sun dips down below the horizon it introduces the best show in Sedona: the night sky.

Jeff was very helpful in planning everything. Aaron picked us up at our hotel and drove us up to the Grand Canyon with a few stops along the way. Aaron was a great guide. He had tons of knowledge, from plants to history and answered every question we had. He made sure that everything went smooth and that we would not miss any of our planned activities. We then took a helicopter back to Sedona where Jeff was waiting for us and drove us back to our hotel. Along the way he helped gives us some ideas of some other activities to do during our remaining stay in Sedona. Both vans were very nice and clean. Thank you Jeff and Aaron! Great Company!

Free Meditation CD download with this private tour. On this tour you will learn what vortexes are, and why we resonate with the energy here. You will also learn how this energy pertains in your life. It's one thing to feel energy but it's another thing to take it home with you for continued transformation. There is a reason people come here for personal and spiritual growth. EVERYONE does have an experience of Sedona, it's a matter of understanding what it is, and what it is utilized for in our lives. You will be meditating and experiencing the vortexes in the way that YOU experience it. You don't have to know how to meditate if you don't already. You will be guided. This tour is also great for picture taking. There is always time for pictures!!!!!! This is a fun, uplifting and unique tour. We also have a couples Vortex tour which is the same tour but with added emphasis on how the male and female energies play out in our lives.

Wow! Vishali does an amazing job with her private tours. She picked us up from our hotel in Sedona in her CRV and took us all around Sedona. She is a great driver. We saw ‘snoopy’, ‘Lucy’, ‘Schroeder’, ‘the percolator’, ‘holy cross chapel’, ‘lion king’ and many other rock formations. She sat in the chapel with us for as long as we wanted. She took photos of us and even showed how to get the best photo angle. She was very patient and knowledgeable about the area. Sharing lots of history and points of interest. I highly recommend taking the tour with her. It was the highlight of our stay in Sedona.

We had an amazing time on our private Grand Canyon tour. Chris was very accommodating of us. We started at 7:45 AM in Sedona and had a beautiful drive out to the Grand Canyon filled with great conversation & many interesting facts from Chris about the region. The van was clean, comfortable and spacious. The Grand Canyon tour was fantastic, we would not have seen as much had we driven there on our own. Chris optimized our time so that we had as much time as possible at the Canyon. Also the lunch was incredible, he somehow managed to get us a reservation at the El Tovar Dining Room! From start to finish a fantastic day that I would recommend to anyone looking to see the Grand Canyon.

The number of times I said, "WOOOOOW!" on this trip was insane. I couldn't get over the natural features of the landscape. Naala was so informative, attentive, and thoughtful. She made sure to communicate with me through the sixteen-hour trip (it was just the two of us.) I had the chance to see Red Rocks, Chapel of the Holy Cross, Sedona, scenic HWY 89a, Oak Creek Canyon, Flagstaff, and Horseshoe Bend at the Golden Hour and oh boy this is a trip that'll be hard to forget. On our way back to Phoenix, I tried sitting back and taking a nap, but I couldn't stop envisioning the beautiful scenery I had seen. Naala, thank you for a fantastic experience that I'll never forget, YOU ROCK and I'LL BE BACK!

Our group loved the wine tour. Jorge by far is the best!!! Very knowledgeable, and very funny. Kept our group entertained the entire trip. Keep in mind when you book that this is only for limo ride, and a charcuterie box for each person. If you are going to tastes at each winery count on $10-$15 for a flight of 4-6 pours. Some wineries are more generous than others on their pours!!! Over all I would recommend Bliss Wine tours.

**Private tour** This is a fantastic tour designed to focus solely on the Grand Canyon, the history, the geology, and the mystery. It's biggest advantage is less time spent on tour at stops along the way to obtain a shorter day at a more economical price. It's particularly better if a family has young kids. So we leave later in the morning and get back earlier in the evening. The tour includes the entrance fee to the park as well. The price of lunch is not included, and is the only dine in meal we stop for, bringing snacks is recommended. To experience this tour to its fullest, its best to start in Sedona.

Inclusions: Bottled water, Parking Fees

Our tour with Chad was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Sedona. It’s clear why private tours are his bread and butter - he tailored the experience to me and my husband and made it so memorable and special. On top of that, Chad was so knowledgeable in the history, culture, geography and geology of the area - we learned so much! We had the absolute pleasure of experiencing our tour with Juniper the Adventure Puppy on his maiden voyage which added an unexpected and much appreciated element of cuteness and cuddles. Chad should raise his prices because I can’t believe we had such a great experience for so little money! Truly cannot recommend this tour enough!!
