Absolutely fantastic! Our guide was so friendly and knowledgeable, and he went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience. The van was comfortable and he gave us the perfect mix of time sharing knowledge, and also time to just relax and enjoy the ride. As a solo traveler I felt safe, welcome, and cared for… I even made friends with my fellow travelers. Booking this was my best decision so far on this trip!

My husband and I had a blast! Jay was very knowledgeable, funny and just an all around great tour guide. We saw some beautiful sites, and Jay took us to the best spots so we can have the best views. This is my birthday trip, and they all sang me Happy birthday!!!!! A memorable tour! Thank you 😊

The tour guide Elmer arrived promptly. The tour bus was clean and comfortable. Elmer gave us an overview of what was to come. He was very pleasant and knowledgeable. Unfortunately, the weather for our tour wasn’t the greatest, but everyone made the best of it. All the spots we saw were incredible. We enjoyed wandering and eating lunch in downtown Sedona. We would highly recommend Detours.

The tour guide Vincent was nice but he made up stories about some sites. Lucille Ball did not live & die in the house of 6 Columns. Ozzie Osborne died. The pie place he took us to has not been visited by Guy Fieri of DDD. We weren't informed prior to the tour that one of the sites re the ruins ( which was the main reason for booking this tour) was not open. I feel scammed!

Love the chapel. It has very peaceful energy around it and inside. Beautiful surroundings of red mountains. Also Our group guide Nathan was very knowledgeable and entertaining. He’s jokes made us laugh and trip there did not feel that long😊

Got picked up in a minibus at 6.40am. There were 7 people on the tour as well as Nate - our driver and tour guide. The drive to Sedona took about 2 hours with one stop. Nate spoke the whole way, entertaining us with facts and stories of high interest to all. Sedona was amazing. The environment was stunning. Points of interest were the Chapel of the holy Cross and various viewing points of the red rocks and mountains. Unfortunately due to the government lockdown we were unable to see Montezuma's castle. However we made other stops in town, having lunch, checking out shops and galleries and the Centre for the New age, where I indulged in some reflexology. Back to Scottsdale for about 6pm. Nate was highly charismatic and exuded great energy. A wonderful tour guide who undoubtedly took a great tour to the next level. Thank you Nate!

The tour was so beautiful and extensive. It was about a 10 hour tour with a full shuttle. Vince was very informative and funny. Lovely to be around. Montezuma Castle was closed but it was still worth the trip. I would definitely do it again.
