Desert View Tour (departs from Tusayan, AZ National Geographic Visitor Center)

Climb aboard The Grand Deluxe Tour if you want the total East Rim Drive experience. On the Grand Canyon Tour we’ll stop at many prominent vistas, some more remote the farther east from Grand Canyon Village to the Desert View Watchtower. Your Pink Jeep Tour guide will interpret the indigenous fauna, flora and provide captivating geological and human history. As an option we can stop at an Indian ruin site where you’ll learn about some of the first peoples and their fascinating lives. At the Desert View Watchtower be sure to look at the murals depicting scenes of Hopi culture. Then peer down thousands of feet and witness the mighty Colorado River where it curves and heads to the west. On a clear day you can see over 100 miles!
