What a wonderful trip with Jim! We toured Sedona and all its sights with humour and interesting anecdotes everywhere we went. Jim was courteous, flexible to customise the tour to what we wanted, and tirelessly endured our chatter and questions. His bus was clean, USB ports everywhere and water on demand. I’d definitely recommend him for a private tour.

My wife and I spent the highlight of our vacation yesterday thanks to Jim of Vaughan’s Southwest Tours. It even outshone our much more expensive West Wind aerial + Hummer tour of the Grand Canyon, which we also loved. But Jim took such great care of us on the Sedona Tour that after a full day of sightseeing we were both awed by the magnificent scenery and grateful for having made a new friend. We will remember this experience forever.

Everything about this tour was amazing! You couldn’t possibly find a better tour guide than Jim Vaughan. He created the perfect itinerary for our family to see so many beautiful sites in one day. He knows so much about so many areas we wanted to see, he knows when and where to stop for the best food, what time to get to the grand canyon sites etc. We wouldn’t have seen half of what we did if we went on our own. Definitely the hightlight of our spring break trip!

We had a great day and tour of Sedona and the Grand Canyon. Mike was very knowledgeable and patient with 3 gabby women. It was a great tour and couldn't think of anything that would make it better

Jim is amazing! He took us to areas of the Grand Canyon that had amazing views and were not crowded. He added several other stops to show us things on the way. He took awesome pictures of our group and emailed them to us. I would definitely recommend him if you want to relax and enjoy the trip to and from the Grand Canyon and go to places at the Grand Canyon that many people are not aware of.

We spent the day with tour guide Mike and had an amazing adventure. Mike was full of so much information and great stories that the 12 hr day seemed to fly by! We were just a small group of just our family of three plus Mike and it couldn't have been better. The private tour was the way to go. Mike was also very prepared for just about anything, we underestimated how cold it would be and were grossly under dressed but lucky for us Mike had extra jackets with him. I highly recommend Southwest tours.

We traveled with a family 4// 2 teens. Jim was awesome. He kept everyone engaged.. even the teens. Jim is the best, very knowledgeable and the history of Arizona. He picked stops that he believed would interest us. We did a tour of Sedona/grand canyon/ Route 66, Excellent tour. Also liked that he emailed us personal pictures he took of us so we all could be in the pictures.
