No judges and no pay-to-play: just real reviews from travelers on our private Grand Canyon, Sedona and Antelope Canyon tours.
Some of the darkest skies in America
Sedona and Flagstaff sit beneath some of the darkest, clearest night skies in the country — Flagstaff was the world's first International Dark Sky City. On this private tour, your guide drives you to a dark-sky site and sets up a professional telescope for an unhurried night under the stars.
Trace the Milky Way overhead, find planets and deep-sky objects through the eyepiece, and learn the constellations and the stories behind them. It's an intimate, fully private experience — best from late spring through early fall when skies are clearest. Door-to-door hotel pick-up included.
