Grand Canyon Day Trips

The Grand Canyon is 2.5 hours from Sedona. Let someone else drive.

Sedona is the closest resort town to the South Rim, and a guided day trip means no rental-car logistics, no park entrance lines, and a guide who knows which viewpoints are worth your limited hours. Every tour below departs from Sedona — most with hotel pickup. Going further north instead? See our Antelope Canyon & Horseshoe Bend day trips.
