Pick up and drop off is at any lodging in or near Flagstaff, Williams, Valle, Grand Canyon, or Sedona (Sedona guests will drive to Flagstaff).

Because it is one of our Private Grand Canyon Tours, you may call the shots. Where to visit, what to talk about, where to have lunch (not included), and when to pick you up and drop you off--it is up to you. But if you like, we can just do our awesome usual tour! We will gladly take the reins.

Bruce A. — October 2024

"What an amazing day with Canyon Cody! My wife and I had Cody as our guide for a private day-long tour. Cody has an in-depth knowledge of pretty much everything canyon related — the geology, the archeology, the plants, the indigenous people. We have used guides at several parks. Cody was five star with us!"

Frequently Asked Questions

What is included in a private tour price?

The Private Tour price includes all National Park entry fees for US citizens, snacks and beverages throughout the day, use of binoculars and rock samples. Colorful take-home geology, nature, native American and wildlife handouts.

How many people can fit in one van?

In our 15-passenger vans, we limit seating to 9 guests so that everyone gets a window seat. For larger groups we can arrange multiple vans. Children 12 and under are free on private tours and do not count toward the per-person pricing.

Can we customize the itinerary?

Absolutely — that is the whole point of a private tour. You can choose which viewpoints to visit, what topics to focus on, where to have lunch (not included), and when to be picked up and dropped off. Or if you prefer, just tell us to do our usual awesome tour and we will take the reins.

Are children free on private tours?

Yes — all children aged 12 and under ride free on private tours. You pay the base van price and per-adult pricing above the base group size, but children never add to the cost. A school group with 2 teachers and 12 children for example would pay only the base price of $795.

Can we book a private Half Day Tour?

Yes — private Half Day Tours start at $795 for up to 3 guests with a maximum price of $1,495 regardless of group size. Toggle the Make it Private button on the Half Day Tour booking page to see pricing for your group size.
