This quirky, drop-dead gorgeous town has tons to offer, from shops and galleries to unbelievable red rock hikes. But it’s also packed with unique, surprising history, as you’re about to discover. I hope you’re ready to explore a place like no other! Note: This 60+mile-long tour covers the essentials of Grand Canyon and Sedona in 2-3 hours

Find a spot to park, then hop out of the car and head for the Tlaquepaque Arts Shopping Village. This market is a Sedona must-see. It’s absolutely full of shops and galleries featuring local arts and crafts, as well as plentiful food offerings if you’re feeling peckish.

At the bend in this road, you’ll find Marg’s Draw Trail, one of Sedona’s mid-length trails at 4 miles out and back. This trail’s famous for offering up-close views of Sedona’s famous red rocks. If you’re here in the spring, you can also catch cactus flowers blooming along the trail!

The trail name has nothing to do with some unearthed Sinagua artifact. It’s actually the title of a movie filmed in Sedona! See, long after the Sinagua vanished, Sedona became home to a handful of pioneer families. Among them: T.C. Schnebly, who saw a bright future for the community, even though it could barely even be called a community when he arrived. Schnebly built the area’s first hotel and general store, and created the first post office in 1902 to put it on the grid! The problem? This place didn’t even have a name yet!

Sedona changed forever in 1923, when filmmaker Zane Grey arrived with a film crew and a dream. Here, Zane shot the silent film Call of the Canyon, a western about a soldier returning from war. He wanted creative freedom he couldn’t get in LA, and was captivated by Sedona’s landscape.

Back in 1931, the Empire State Building finished construction in New York. Uhhh so… what does that have to do with Sedona? Well, local rancher and sculptor Marguerite Staude saw that skyscraper and was so inspired she simply had to create something just as impressive in her home state of Arizona.

This is the trailhead for Cathedral Rock Trail, a steep 1.2-mile trek offering phenomenal vistas. It’s considered a challenging hike, with 800 feet of elevation gain, so make sure you’re prepared if you decide to make the journey. Otherwise, you can simply enjoy the views of Cathedral Rock!

From here, you can get a great look at Courthouse Butte. These majestic formations were one of the main reasons Hollywood came to Sedona in the first place. They just seem to scream “wild west,” don’t they? If you’d like to get a closer look, you can access a couple of different trails from this parking lot.

Village of Oak Creek, known to locals as “The Village,” this unincorporated community is chock full of shops and restaurants perfect for a post-tour break. The Village also boasts three huge golf courses for those who like to hit the links!

The easy-to-access, scenic vista of Lover’s Knoll is the perfect spot for a romantic photo op. For some folks, it’s also the ultimate outdoor wedding destination!

Here, you’ll find Pyramid Mountain Trail—named, of course, for that pyramid-shaped mountain directly in front of us. This 2-mile loop takes about an hour to hike and offers stupendous scenery the whole time. It also presents some insight into why some people consider this land sacred.

It’s definitely worth the price, but if you’d rather not pay, you’ll have an option to turn around before the ticket booth.

This Crescent Moon Picnic Site, offers much more than just a great place for a snack. This creekside sanctuary boasts spectacular views and swimming as well! Cathedral Rock is clearly visible from here, and this is one of the most photographed views in Sedona! Chances are if you’ve seen photos of Sedona, one of them was shot from right here

This is Red Rock State Park, a small but mighty stretch of some of the prettiest wilderness in the Sedona area. This 286-acre park offers plentiful hiking and biking trails, picnic areas, and scenic vistas.

Welcome to Grand Canyon National Park! This awe-inspiring natural wonder is unlike any other place on earth, and your narrated driving tour will make sure you get the most out of your visit.
