FAQ
--What kind of vehicles will I be traveling on?

We are proud to offer the finest fleet in the Phoenix area. Our brand new, full sized maxi-vans are all customized for touring, including individual seating, a center aisle, state of the art public address systems, hydraulic steps and many of them have video players. The windows are oversized for great views and all the vans are fully climate controlled. Our fleet also includes a 2000 model 24 passenger mini bus which is handicapped accessible. We have deluxe motor coaches available to accommodate large custom groups when necessary.

--What items can I bring on board?

Our vans are designed for 12 to 14 passengers. We have limited space for luggage and allow small overnight bags only on overnight tours. Any bags larger than 9 inches x 14 inches x 22 inches should be left with your hotel. We appreciate your cooperation in this matter. If you have a wheelchair or other necessary equipment, please notify us at the time of booking so we may make arrangements for your special needs. We have a cooler on board that small items such as medication or snacks may be refrigerated for your convenience. Anything you bring should be able to fit under your seat for the comfort and safety of everyone on board.

--What kind of weather should I expect?

Arizona's desert areas experience a warm, dry climate with only 7 inches of rainfall annually. Summer daytime temperatures average 95 to 102 degrees (35 to 39 Celsius); spring and autumn average 75 to 88 (24 to 31 Celsius) and winter, 65 to 70 (18 to 21 Celsius). Northern Arizona and the Grand Canyon range from 72 to 82 degrees in the summer (22 to 28 Celsius) to 25 to 45 degrees in the winter (-3 to 7 Celsius). Such diversity means great weather for touring any time of the year!

We want you to be as comfortable as possible. Casual dress is suggested on all tours (shorts, jeans, comfortable shoes). Remember that the Grand Canyon is 20 to 25 degrees cooler than Phoenix, so layered clothing is suggested for winter months.
