⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐MUST DO TOUR! Let Sheldon be your guide!
I’ve never been to the Grand Canyon and knew that seeing such a large miracle of nature would be a daunting task. Over the years of traveling we’ve discovered guided tours are best. Well yesterday we experienced the greatest guided tour of all time. Quoting my favorite Yankee Yogi Berra, “When you come to a fork in the road, take it!”. That’s exactly what our tour guide Sheldon said and did to perfection. “Young Sheldon” expertly guided us through less known vantage points of view and attractions we could of never imagined. At each stop he offered his favorite less known viewpoints. We eagerly followed him and we were astonished with the secret views and insights he offered throughout the tour. He eagerly answered every question and even offered his explanation/interpresation regarding his D.U.D.E. Geological theory on the formation of the Grand Canyon. Every stop on this tour was extraordinary. We never would have been able to plan this ourselves. The tour was worth every penny. In addition “Young Sheldon” graciously provided unlimited bottles of water throughout the tour to ensure we stayed hydrated. Besides the canyon itself we were blessed with tours of indigenous ruins (1000-1200) and a wonderful lunch comprised of authentic Navajo fare, which was delicious. (Lunch is an additional cost, and there is American fare as well for those who are picky eaters). The restaurant was also one of the nicest gift shops in the area and included authentic handmade art/jewelry/etc.. Some of the pieces included an artisans name/trademark. I cannot stress enough how great this tour was. I can also tell you that Sheldon and his knowledge of the Grand Canyon and surrounding attractions were indeed invaluable. At each stop he allowed everyone to seek their own experience. I highly recommend you follow Sheldon at each stop for the greatest experience. The best advice I can give is take this tour and stick with Sheldon’s timeline. Wear a watch, be cognizant of his timeline and meet back at the van at his prescribed time. If your group follows the timeline, you’ll have additional stops and more unforgettable experiences. I also recommend booking this tour on your first day as Sheldon will present you with useful tips for all attractions in the area. If you read this review and take this tour you’ll be extremely pleased and ahead of the common tourist curve. Great job Sheldon, we are forever grateful!
