Grand Canyon weekend tour

Recommended Posts

We purchased this weekend tour from the Az Deer Assn Banquet, that Monty Parsons AKA Azsagebrush got donated. We had a wonderful time. We stayed at the Best Western Squire Inn, a very lovely hotel. On Saturday morning we started out with a flight to Page over the Grand Canyon. We got a breakfast at Page airport and then got picked up for a tour to Antelope canyon, that was awsome!! After leaving the Antelope canyon we were bussed down to the base of Glen Canyon Dam for the river tour. We stopped for a small hike to the Petroglyphs, pretty cool. We stopped on a beach to have lunch and continued on to Lees Ferry where a bus took us back to Tusyan with a stop at Cameron Trading Post, and they have some really good fudge there. We got back to the hotel about 6:30 pm and cleaned up for dinner. We went to a local restaurant - We cook pizza and pasta and not only did we get an excellent dinner, but had the pleasure of seeing and dining with good friends Jim (Pops) Mullins and his sidekick Gary. We had such a wonderful time and experience, all the guides we had were very knowledgable and friendly. We recommade that everyone should take this trip/tour at least once, if not more.

 

Thank you again Monty for getting the donation.

P.S. We used this as a late honeymoon trip.
