 | | ..WHAT IS THE MAIN DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE WALKING TOUR AND SUNSET TOUR? |
|---|
|
|---|
The main difference between the GRAND CANYON WALKING TOUR and the GRAND CANYON SUNSET TOUR is that the sunset tour starts later and gets back later. The sunset tour starts between 7-7:30AM in the winter time and between 9-9:30AM in the summer time. It also follows a different walking route. The GRAND CANYON SUNSET TOUR walking route begins at EL TOVAR hotel and walks EAST to Mather Point. You'll watch the sunset at YAVAPAI OBSERVATION STATION(Granger Point). The GRAND CAYON WALKING TOUR walks WEST of Grand Canyon Village and goes to HOPI POINT. The reason we do not watch the sunset at HOPI POINT is because the GRAND CANYON NATIONAL PARK shuttle system is too unreliable after sunset and it takes an hour to get off of the point. HOPI POINT is too far to walk back, especially in the dark! |  | | ..WHAT DO WE DO FOR DINNER ON THE SUNSET TOUR?grand canyon sunset tours |

|
|---|
Do not hesitate to ask the driver to stop at any of the restaurants right outside of Grand Canyon National Park or at In-and-Out Burger in Kingman. We can also call an order into Pizza Hut in Kingman too if you'd like to get something to eat. Of course, I totally recommend In-and-Out Burger. Some people who complain about the "fast food meals" of McDonald's,Arby's, and In-and-Out but it doesn't get any more American that the Southwest, fast food, and good company! |  | | ..WHAT PAYMENT METHOD DO YOU PREFER?for all of your las vegas tours |

|---|
| |
|---|
Unfortunately,we can't pick up at private residences. A service like this, even free, is considered a taxi cab service and we do not have a taxi cab license. It's also a safety issue too so we can't pick up at homes, apartments, or private residences due to safety and security. We can meet you at any casino adjacent to the Strip. |

 | | ..HOW LONG ARE YOUR TOURS? |
|---|
|
|---|
The Grand Canyon Walking Tour and Grand Canyon Sunset Tour are both 15 HOURS in length. The Hoover Dam Kayaking Tour is 10 HOURS in length. The Red Rock Hiking Tour is 10 HOURS in length. The kayaking and red rock hike may run a bit shorter depending on the speed,ability,and interest of the group. It is a very long ride to and from all of the parks but definitely worth the time investment! |

 | | ..HOW HARD IS THE WALK AT THE GRAND CANYON? for the grand canyon tours |
|---|
|
|---|
The walk is easy but the altitude is what effects the people the most. We've had guests with canes take the walking tour. The trail is flat and paved like a sidewalk. We walk on the trail west of Grand Canyon Village. This part of the trail is not accessible to all of the big bus tours so we won't have 200 people at every lookout point. It is remote,quiet,and very peaceful. |
|---|
 | | ..HOW HARD IS THE HIKE AT RED ROCK? for your red rock hiking tour |
|---|
|
|---|
The hike at Red Rock is for moderate to skilled hikers. We won't get tired or lose our breath but it's nice to have a great sense of balance since we'll be hiking on rough desert terrain. A good gauge is if you are able to staggar back to your hotel room at 4am without the aid of railings,strangers,or wheel chairs than your balance is good enough for this hike!It can get hot during the summer months too and so you should factor that into this as well,especially if you are sensative to extreme heat. |
|---|
 | | ..HOW HARD IS THE PADDLING ON THE HOOVER DAM KAYAKING TOUR? hoover kayaking |
|---|
|
|---|
The paddling is easy and we'll be traveling with the river current. We actually use 30" wide, 18ft tandam sea kayaks for these tours. The reason is they are longer and narrower and carry much less drag than a shorter, wider kayak. The tandams cut the water extremely well and are fast, especially with two people paddling! Now, if you are smart you'll offer the front to your partner so they won't see you when you stop paddling. You'll catch on quickly that this trip was made for you! You can relax, take in the sun, and ponder all of lifes great mysteries while your partner paddles you around! |
|---|
 | | ..ARE THERE SNAKES AT RED ROCK? for your red rock tours |
|---|
|
|---|
Yes, there are snakes at Red Rock and they purr pretty as a kitten! The truth is that the western diamondback is very anti-social and wants nothing to do with us. I've only seen one out there out of about 50 hikes and it was trying to escape into some shade. They really hate our company and will make every effort to escape us. They also don't gravitate towards heavily populated areas and so it's doubtful that we'll see one at Calico Tanks because it's so heavily hiked. You jokers, no rubber snakes either - not funny! |
|---|
 |
| ..DO YOU HAVE A TOUR MINIMUM? for your grand canyon, red rock, and hoover dam kayaking tours |
|
|---|
We'll take anyone out that books with us, regardless of the number of people in that tour group. However, we will try to consolidate the tours if possilbe by moving people. This RARELY happens and only does when a party of 4-6 people cancels or changes dates at the last second. We'll always call each customer and let them know if we need to make this change. Again ,it's very rare that this happens though. |
