5.00There are not enough positive words in the dictionary to adequately describe our experience. Fourteen seniors from our church flew from Florida to participate in this tour. From our first email inquiry to the parting at the end of the tour - everything was excellent and professional. Our guide (Dana) was outstanding and the information she shared was both accurate and Biblical. I loved the way she infused Scripture into her explanations of what we were seeing and her knowledge of science allowed us to see how God's creation reveals Him as our creator. Our entire experience was fabulous!
Great all day experience

5.00Our guide, Luke, was fantastic, and this and the other Canyon Ministries tour we took, (the sunset tour with Dana), were the highlight of our trip! The personal attention and the knowledge of the guides make Canyon Ministries tours the very best option for seeing the Grand Canyon.
Biblically accurate, true to science, a wonderful tour!

5.00We had the most amazing experience ever! Our tour guide Dana was incredibly knowledgeable, thoughtful, gracious, and funny! I love how she used the bible to reference each of the sites we visited while staying true to true scientific principles. As a Christian biologist who also works in the medical field, her descriptions and explanations were on point. I totally recommend this tour. It is a must book, do it now!
Lord show me who You are? Open up my eyes in wonder! Go see the Grand Canyon with a Biblical Worldview!

5.00Our Biblical Creation Tour was absolutely incredible, and that’s thanks in large part to our guide, Eddy. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and had a real passion for both the science and the Scripture that brought the canyon’s story to life in a completely new way. Eddy struck the perfect balance between education and inspiration—his explanations made complex geological features easy to understand while connecting them beautifully to the Biblical narrative. He answered every question with enthusiasm, and his sense of humor kept the whole group smiling all day long. From breathtaking viewpoints to fascinating geological insights, every stop felt meaningful. You could tell Eddy truly loves what he does, and that made the experience even more special. If you want to see the Grand Canyon through fresh eyes and walk away both awed by nature and inspired by faith, this is the tour to take. Highly recommend—five stars all the way! 🌄🙏
Much more than just sightseeing!

5.00Our family came from South Carolina to see the Grand Canyon and surrounding features. I had contacted Canyon Ministries to see about what they offered given we are followers of the LORD Jesus Christ. Everyone I was in contact with was more than helpful and very patient with all of our (many!) inquiries. Our tour leader, Dana, was a joy to be with and was also very patient with our questions, answering them well and from a Biblical perspective each time. We had a wonderful, as well as educational, experience with Canyon Ministries and we would certainly recommend them to anyone we know coming out to the Flagstaff area to see the many natural wonders that are here.
Fantastic Family Adventure

5.00Our family has to give a huge shout out to Canyon Ministries for a fantastic family adventure! It was the highlight of our family vacation across several stops in Arizona. Dana was an awesome guide and took the time to point out many of the features of specific interest to the family throughout the different tours or hikes! She took the time to keep the family engaged throughout the day and shared her passion to help us understand how the geography and geology fits best with a Biblical worldview!
Seeing God's glorious creation through a biblical world view.

5.00We greatly enjoyed being led by our tour guide Luke. Luke was very personable and knowledgeable of history, science, and the Bible. The scenery was breath taking, and it was just the right amount of walking and driving.
A superbly engaging and Biblically-informative experience.

5.00My wife and I were so looking forward to the experience of having a Bible-based and scientifically-sound excursion/experience with Canyon Ministries. This trip did NOT disappoint! Our guide was outstanding in both her competence and was also very engaging. We highly reommend this trip/experience to others.
