My wife (Kathy) and I went on this tour on June 24th. We had read quite a few reviews about this tour so we booked it right away (3 weeks before our trip). We wanted to take the daytime tour, but ended up going on the sunset tour which is about $50 dollars more a person. From the previous reviews and email confirmation, we were excited to meet Daryl (the owner). However, the day of our trip our guide was George. George was actually very funny. He had me (and the group) laughing throughout the entire tour. He was also very knowledgable about facts about Las Vegas, Boulder City (NV), Hoover Dam, Route 66, and the Grand Canyon (all of the places along the way). He also happens to be a professional photographer and he gave our group pointers about taking photos (like creating depth..haha). And, he took a few nice photos too. We checked out his webpage...nice photos by the way. So, just in case you're looking for a true photographer and getting married in Vegas....you may want to inquire about George. It so happens that there were three people in our group whose names are Kathy (my wife being one of them). The $150 price for the Sunset tour was well worth it. Why? Small group. Our group was a total of nine. Breakfast at Mickey D's that gave the group an opportunity to mingle and get to know each other. Delicious lunch (huge sandwiches, grapes, cookies, and triscuits (biscuits for you brits out there) with cheese...yummy. The walk wasn't anything strenuous ... it was a leisurely walk with a bunch of stops for photos along the way. We all sat together to watch the sunset. Unfortunately there were a few clouds which prevented us from seeing a true sunset. We had a blast none-the-less. George...Mahalo...thank you for a great tour!

My boyfriend and I took the Sunset Tour on June 24, 2009. We figured this leg of our Las Vegas trip would be a once-in-a-lifetime thing and we wanted to find the best company to show it to us. Thanks to the reviews on this site, we chose Grand Adventures, and it was worth every penny! Our tour guide, George Wolf, led everything efficiently and had a wonderful personality - not to mention his photography background, which was just icing on the cake. The walking tour was a great way to experience the canyon, as it was amazing being able to take pictures on the edge without even a guardrail behind us, as a lot of the touristy lookout points had.The size of the group was perfect, and it was nice chatting with so many people from various backgrounds. It was a long day, but it was totally worth it. The stops at Hoover Dam and Seligman, AZ broke up the drive there and were awesome photo opportunities, too. I will definitely recommend Grand Adventures to anyone I know travelling to Las Vegas who wants a top-notch tour company!

The key to our entire day, and it is a long day (we left at 9:30am and got back at midnight), was our guide George Wolf. We was fun, energetic and was more than willing to share any and all info he had about our tour and Las Vegas in general. He took pictures for us and really made it a great trip.

We traveled in a van with 2 other families from England. We actually got to know one of the fams very well by the end of the trip.

Our sunset that day was less than spectacular, but all in all, it was a great day! Don't hesistate to book a trip, but book early, they fill up fast.

After reading many glowing recommendations about this walking tour I booked it and can honestly say that it was worth every penny. The company only takes a max of 10 people on each tour so you don't spend ages waiting for tons of people to get back on the bus! Our trip started with a prompt pick up at our hotel by Alphonso in an air conditioned mini bus which was spacious and very comfortable. We headed off to Boulder City for breakfast at McDonalds where we told to order whatever we wanted ( included in the cost of the tour ) we then stopped at Lake Mead and the Hoover Dam for photos. From there we headed off on the long drive to the Grand Canyon ( with stops for restroom breaks ) - although it is a long drive Alphonso kept us all entertained with information and pointing out various landmarks along the way.We also stopped on Route 66 for a short time - long enough to stretch your legs and buy a few souvenirs etc.
The Grand Canyon is truly spectacular - well worth the long journey - Alphonso was a great guide - always ensuring that everyone was happy and taking photos for all of us.The walk itself is done at a leisurely pace so you don't need to be an Olympic athelete to do it - we had a great picnic lunch ( supplied by the company - HUGE deli sandwich,grapes,cheese and cookies ) at a really scenic spot. Alphonso knew all the best spots for great views and photos. I would recommend this trip to anyone who wants to avoid the huge mass crowds - you really do get to see much more if you are walking with an experienced guide - you also get a chance to chat to the other people on your trip ( Hi to the Texas 3 and South Carolina 4 !!! ) which makes it more fun.
Well done Grand Adventures - a really memorable day out and great value for money!
