• 5Best way to experience the Grand Canyon

  We can’t recommend this experience enough. Our guide, Dave, was awesome: warm, funny, and super knowledgeable. He made the hike come alive with stories about the area’s archaeology, early explorers and writers, and the Indigenous history of the canyon. The lunch was delicious, everything was flawlessly organized, and there’s no way we could’ve gotten this much out of the day on our own. Absolutely worth every penny

  Patrick was the best guide we’ve ever had on a tour. He’s extremely knowledgeable, loves sharing his experiences in the Grand Canyon and makes the day fly by. Would recommend him highly for this trip!

• 5So glad I chose this company

  Our guides were great! We had a large group and two guides. Some kids struggled with the 3 mile, 2000 vertical foot hike back and Ben was just superb with them. They provided everything including water, trail snacks that were awesome, and hiking poles which were clutch for the hike back up the canyon. The food was great! I hate deli meat, but this wasn’t Slimy gross deli meat, it was fresh turkey and ham on delicious bread. They took note that one child had gluten-free bread, and then brought her a salad instead of pasta salad and a bag of gluten-free Tates cookies. The entire team was so thoughtful and the experience overall was smooth and just made our trip perfect. I would definitely recommend. It’s expensive but you get what you pay for.

• 5A Trip-Maker -- Don't Visit the Grand Canyon Without Doing This

  We just got back from a trip to the Grand Canyon, and hands down the highlight was our private hike with All Star Grand Canyon Tours -- specifically, our guide, Dave. If we hadn't booked this guided hike, I think the Grand Canyon would have been a bit of a letdown. Like most visitors, we probably would have parked, taken a few photos from the rim, and driven away saying, "Wow, that was big," without ever really experiencing it. Dave changed everything. He made the Canyon feel like ours. The hike was quiet and uncrowded -- he found us a route where it felt like we had one of the most visited national parks in the world all to ourselves. And he knew so much about -- my family learned a ton about the history of the canyon. Plus, he's just a great person to spend the day with. Funny and incredibly passionate about what he does. The lunch he provided was delicious too! Again, this wasn't just a tour. It was an experience that made our trip.

• 5A phenomenal memorable day!!!!!

  What an amazing experience we had!!! It was just my wife and me for the full day hike. Dave was our guide, and I cannot imagine a more knowledgeable and insightful leader - - he took us to some fantastic places, and made us wish that we could have continued for another ten days! If anyone tells me that they are planning a trip to the Grand Canyon, I will push them to get in touch with the All-Stars, and to ask for Dave! Thank you!!

• 5Terrific Grand Canyon Tour

  Tremendous day with All Star in the Grand Canyon. Dave was our guide and could not have provided us with a better day. Its clear that Dave is passionate about the Canyon and showing groups around. We learned a great deal. I would highly recommend this guide, tour outfit, tour. First rate.

About Flagstaff

Flagstaff is a high Arizona town among ponderosa pines beneath the San Francisco Peaks, a base for the Grand Canyon, Sedona and volcanic landscapes.

Flagstaff sits at about 2,100 metres on the Colorado Plateau, in one of the largest ponderosa pine forests in the United States, below the San Francisco Peaks, a volcanic mountain group whose Humphreys Peak is the highest point in Arizona. The historic downtown grew along the railroad and old Route 66, with brick buildings, breweries and a university. Lowell Observatory, on a hill above the town, is where Pluto was discovered in 1930.
