It was a perfect day. We were picked up in Flagstaff. Loved that we could just enjoy the trip and not worry about driving 2 1/2 hrs. Our driver ( Kurt, I think) was so knowledgeable about the area and history. Also made good stops along the way and always made sure our bathroom stops were nice for the ladies. No outhouses for us. Felt like we were taking a road trip with a friend. Definitely, recommend it.
