EXPERIENCE the Grand Canyon!
Daily tours of the South Rim with a Biblical creation perspective. See Flood geology for yourself on our Grand Canyon Rim Tours with a Different View!
We offer Morning, Full-day, and Sunset tours of Arizona’s Grand Canyon in a 13-guest air-conditioned bus, or in a 7-guest SUV, with pick-up locations at the Grand Hotel in Tusayan, Grand Canyon Railway Hotel in Williams, and the Little America Hotel in Flagstaff.
We can also pick you up in the park at the Grand Canyon Visitor Center if you plan on being in the park before or after our tour!
We now also offer Train & Sunset Tours, where you can ride the train from Williams up the park and then experience the beauty of a Grand Canyon sunset!
We are also able to provide a guide for private tours in your vehicle or ours, as well as step-on guides for large bus tours. Gift certificates are available for our tours which allow friends and family to schedule their own tour date.
The tour includes a complimentary copy of the True North Series guide book, Your Guide to the Grand Canyon: a Different Perspective (one copy per family/group).
A rim tour with Canyon Ministries is an experience you will treasure for a lifetime. This claim may seem overstated, however it is not based on how great we think we are, but on God’s grandeur and the dramatic testimony of His power, judgment, and mercy He has left for us to behold. “The whole earth is full of His glory.” Isaiah 6:3

GRAND CANYON RIM TOURS
Morning Tours
Our Morning Tours begin at 8am and spend approximately 4 hours in the park, plus the transportation time between your pick-up location and the park entrance. Your guide will take you to several locations along the rim and will spend time explaining the geology and natural history of the canyon. Tour fee discounts apply to groups of 4 or more.** Bottled water is provided.
Full-day Tours
Join us for a Full-day Grand Canyon tour which include everything the morning tour does, but spends approximately 8 hours in the park. This additional time allows you to see more views of the Grand Canyon, more time with the guide to discuss the Biblical significance of the canyon, and fun stops at various historic locations where we share about the “people history” that took place during the early days of the Grand Canyon and Arizona’s wild west. A stop will be made at one of the cafeterias in the park for lunch (price of lunch not included). The same discounts apply as for the half-day tours.**
Sunset Tours
Witness the beauty of a changing colors during our Sunset Tour, which begins about 4 hours before the sun sets at the Grand Canyon. Your guide will take you to several locations along the rim and will spend time explaining the geology and natural history of the canyon. Near the end of the tour we will stop to watch the amazing colors of the setting sun as it closes out another day at the canyon. Starting time may vary depending on the time of year. Tour fee discounts apply to groups of 4 or more.** Bottled water is provided.
Train & Sunset Tours
Climb aboard the historic Grand Canyon Railway train for a truly immersive Wild West experience. Ride the same route folks have been using since the train first came to the Grand Canyon over 117 years ago! This special package tour includes a historic train in the morning up to the Grand Canyon from Williams, with plenty of time to explore the Village area for lunch, souvenirs, and beautiful canyon vistas. Then join us for a 4-hour tour culminating with a Grand Canyon sunset. Afterwards we will drive you back down to Williams in our tour vehicle. Sure to create memories for the whole family!
Private Tours
A private Grand Canyon tour with Canyon Ministries can be an exciting way for your family or group of friends to really dig into the details of the testimony provided by the canyon in a personal way. A private tour allows you to help set the agenda and length of the tour and can be done in your vehicle or ours. Click the button below for more information on our private tours.
Besides the fact that you will receive a different view on the canyon and its formation, note the length of our tours when comparing with other companies. With Canyon Ministries, the length of your tours is measured by “hours in the park,” not including transportation time to and from the park.
For example, if we meet you in Williams, it is an hour’s drive to the park, which will extend your 4-hour half-day tour to approximately 6 hours (round trip) and allows for further discussion, Q&A, or watching an exciting Grand Canyon related film while traveling to or from the park. This is unique to Canyon Ministries, providing more value for your investment!
