Itinerary

1
Grand Canyon South Rim
Our biblical creation tours of the Grand Canyon National Park's South Rim include multiple stops to the very best overlooks with tons of insightful teaching throughout the day. The order below is a "typical" route, focusing on the park's east side along Desert View Drive. Due to changing weather, seasons, or the people flow in the park that day, we may have alternate stops other than what we provide below. Our tours are not "scripted", so guides have the freedom and flexibility to respond to changes in the park as well as your own individual group dynamic. Our tour does not include entry fee into the Grand Canyon National Park, which you may pay at the gate or use a National Park Pass. Entry is good for 7 days of unlimited use.
· 5 min· Admission not included
2
Grand Canyon Visitor Center South Rim
Our tour meets at the flag pole just outside the Grand Canyon Visitor Center building INSIDE the park at tour start time. Plan extra arrival time during spring and summer. Holidays and spring break may have lines over an hour long getting into the park. We suggest you arrive early and enjoy views at the Grand Canyon Village or Mather Point or a Rim Trail walk before joining our tour.
· 10 min
3
Yavapai Point
Starting near the Grand Canyon Visitor Center, our first stop provides you with an introduction to the Grand Canyon and its geology. We will lay the foundation for the rest of the tour regarding the biblical events of the Flood found in Genesis and the significance of what we'll be exploring throughout our tour.
· 30 min
4
Grandview Point
Learn about the exciting Wild West people history at Grandview Point, with talks on mining both copper and tourist pockets in the early days of the Grand Canyon National Park development. Enjoy wide vistas and the distant Colorado River as we talk about the significance of the canyon and whether that river has the power to cut and remove this material.
· 30 min
5
Lipan Point
While taking in fantastic river views, including one of the canyon's largest rapids, we will talk about the Native American Ancestral Puebloans who lived far below on the Unkar Delta. At Lipan Point, we will also showcase the geological Great Unconformity, Cambrian Explosion, and the Tapeats Sandstone—all of which provide fantastic observable evidence for a global Flood. Learn about the mechanisms of the Flood from its onset, and how we believe the sedimentary rock layers were deposited through this year-long destructive event of biblical proportions!
· 45 min
6
Navajo Point
A lot of water, in a little bit of time. Learn about the carving of the Grand Canyon by what we call the "lake spillover" or "breached dam" model, something first proposed in geology all the way back in the 1800s and still held by both creation and some secular geologists alike today. See beyond the Grand Canyon to the distant Vermillion and Echo Cliffs of the Marble Platform and southeast to parts of the Painted Desert. Learn about the nearby historic Desert View Watchtower, completed in 1932.
· 30 min
7
Sunset Viewing
Concluding at one of the very best locations to watch the sun as it sets below the distant cliff walls to the west, close out the day with the One who made it. Adequate time will be given to sit, relax, and enjoy this special time. Blankets are available, as is the comfort and warmth of the vehicle should we be in cooler weather.
· 45 min
8
Grand Canyon Visitor Center South Rim
After the tour, our guide will drop you off back at your vehicle at the Grand Canyon National Park Visitor Center, or wherever else you may have parked that day. If you booked the Train & Sunset Tour (available on our website), we will return you to your vehicle in Williams.

Time Talent Testimony
Culture585361, October 2026
Dana was an amazing tour guide! Her knowledge and presentation were top notch. She was professional and personable. She had a great sense of humor and wonderful understanding of science and scripture. We never would have experienced the Grand Canyon in such a memorable way if we would have missed the opportunity to book with Canyon Ministries. There were so many spots to view everything and as first time visitors, we would have missed a lot if touring on our own. Thank you for this amazing experience!!

Would do again
chele8503, October 2026
This tour was amazing. Dana was our guide and she was fantastic. We had quite the weather experience with rain wind and 45 degree temperatures and yet the tour was still beyond our expectations. Dana provided so much information and gave us plenty of time to explore and ask questions.

Incredible from start to finish
Coastal66636888136, October 2026
Our Grand Canyon tour was an incredible experience from start to finish. Our guide shared a rich biblical perspective that added so much depth and meaning to what we were seeing. Emelia was extremely knowledgeable and clearly passionate about the canyon's history and the Gospel message. We appreciated how much information was packed into the four‑hour tour while still giving us plenty of time to explore, take pictures, and soak in the beauty of God’s creation. It was a truly memorable experience.
