Amazing Experience! - First off, I booked our reservation for Wednesday, plans changed and needed to reschedule for thursday. He accommodated us with no issue. Upon arrival at the pickup point. He has morning refreshments laid out on a table coffee/tea/water snacks etc. prior to our departure. The van is extremely comfortable and has wifi too! Then he asked if we would like to have breakfast or lunch, we chose breakfast and it was included as well. He took us to the best spots/views of the Grand Canyon. On top of that his knowledge/history of the park is refreshing. He mentioned so many facts that blew our minds away. Overall, this was an amazing experience with such a passionate person. 5 out of 5! Definitely recommend to others!

Private, intimate tour, tailored to your needs - I can’t recommend GC explorer tours and Eric enough. First, he was so accommodating with us in rescheduling from a night to the following morning due to flight delays. Second, he took care of all the details of our meal, coffee, tea, snacks, WiFi, blankets, binoculars. He made it effortless and enjoyable with no stone left unturned. Third, he was extremely knowledgeable and was able to tailor the tour to meet our desires and scheduling needs. I’d give him 6 stars if I could!
