Archeology tour was great - JC was amazing. He was super knowledgeable and experienced. He made the past come to life and pointed out ancient markings on rocks, remains of kitchens, homes and history of the people who lived there 13,000 years ago. The owner of Safari is the only tour company that has access to this area. The limited access allows for preservation. We highly recommend JC. He is passionate in sharing.

greta learning experience - Our guide was fantastic and very knowledgable. We learned a lot, and enjoyed the tour very much. I wa sconcerned about the "hiking" , but if you bring hiking poles you will be fine.

Stepping into the past - The area was amazing, if you love diving into the past, this one is for you. The tour guide, CK, really made you feel like you were there experiencing what the people might have been doing at the time. This is one trip you want to take.

Archeology jeep tour in Sedona - The Arizona Safari Jeep archeology tour was fascinating! Doc, our guide, shared information about the geology , botany, and indigenous history, as well as recommending other fun sites to explore in Sedona. My husband and I were the only people signed up for the tour that day, so there was plenty of time to ask questions and explore during our “private” tour. The hike to explore the region is not too difficult for active seniors, but would also be fun in a family group. The jeep ride was all on paved or gravel surfaces. Walking sticks and water were provided. Doc even took a small detour on the way back to show us how to get to the Amitabha Stupa and Peace Park, after we expressed an interest in visiting it. One of the most interesting activities we did in Sedona. Doc was an exceptional guide.

Unique tour of Sedona area prehistory - Great narration and points of interest on the way to and from the actual site in the Jeep as well as during the actual site tour. This is the only tour operator with permission to the private land where the site is located — so no other distractions while on the tour.

Sedona’s Ancient Past Comes Alive - We were fortunate to book this tour at a very busy time in Sedona. We were even more fortunate to have JC as our driver/guide. He was knowledgeable and very conversant on the artifacts and petroglyphs of the private area we hiked. It was an educational and rewarding experience. Thanks!
