We had a wonderful time on this trail. Catherine, our guide, was very knowledgeable and nice. She pointed out lots of interesting things. I highly recommend this company.

Excellent service all round. Our guide, Stephen, met us in the morning with equipment and snacks we would need. As we started on the descent, Stephen was able to narrate knowledge and stories about the Canyon, whilst keeping us on the safest path at all times and walking at a suitable pace. He was happy for us to stop and take pictures all along the way. When it came to lunch, Stephen handmade an excellent turkey wrap sandwich, and we were able to sit and eat over the spectacular views of the Canyon. As we came back up the path, Stephen ensured that we were stopping and drinking to keep us hydrated. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour, and would recommend to anyone considering a tour guide.

We really enjoyed our hike with Stephen. We was very well versed in the history and geology of the area. We also felt good about his professionalism and courtesy to other hikers on the trail. The trail is fairly busy and he made sure we stopped to let uphill hikers have the right of way. The trail was fairly easy to navigate.

Our guide Matt was great. He shared his vast knowledge of the canyon and the plant and animal life that dwell there. Matt has a personality that makes you enjoy spending the day with him. My wife and I had a wonderful day in the canyon. Matt was the perfect guide and Wildland Trekking made all arrangements go smoothly.

The hike was absolutely beautiful. It was an amazing way to see the Grand Canyon. Our guide (Dakota) was phenomenal. He was very knowledgeable about the Canyon and provided a lot of historical context to the hike. He also went at “our pace” and didn’t push too much. He cooked up a tasty quesadilla for us at the halfway point and entertained us with dad jokes on the hike back up. We’re excited to return and take a much longer hike into the canyon (hopefully with Dakota).

Excellent experience all around. Jeff was a perfect hike guide. My teen kids were kept engaged and encouraged for the entire 6 mile hike.

Amazing trip our guide Tolman was the best! He made the trip even more special with his incredible cooking skills, knowledge of the canyon, and great stories. My daughter, 14, and I had the best time. Thank you Tolman and Wildland Trekking. Bill

Our day hike with Chris delivered more than we expected. He was engaging and informative and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience around the Grand Canyon including taking the time to prepare lunch for us. We appreciated the hiking and the conversation! Great day.

Our tour guide Stephen was excellent. He was extremely knowledgable of the Grand Canyon and was motivating my wife and I the whole time. This was our first ever hike and he made the experience unforgettable. Thank you!

Great first hike in Grand Canyon. Our guide was Chris E, who was fabulous. He answered all of our dumb questions, was extremely knowledgeable, and had his eye on safety the whole time. We hiked in the midst of an extreme heat wave and he was very accommodating with water and carrything things that became to uncomfortable for us. If you get Chris as you're guide, you are in luck! He brought us to a great lunch spot on the trail and served us fruit, brie, and candied bacon. I mean, WOW!
