Have you ever been on a tour bus seeing the sights? The tour guide points to the scenery, as the bus keeps moving along, and exclaims, “Look at the mountain over there!”  Did you want to just look or did you want to get out and hike that mountain? I want to hike that mountain. I know you do, too. That’s what an active and adventurous vacation is all about. It is getting out and exploring under your own power. Whether it’s hiking up a mountain or kayaking a river, you will be immersed in the destination. 

I am a Certified Active and Adventure Vacation Designer.  I specialize in custom designed vacations that get you out of the tour bus so you can get up close to the scenery in an active way. I know your life is busy. The dizzying amount of internet search results can be daunting. I’ll work with you to design a trip itinerary to your liking saving you time and no head spinning. Let’s make your next trip the best it can be. I’m ready to custom design your next active vacation.

Grand Canyon Concierge

North Kaibab Trail

The Grand Canyon National Park is a spectacular destination that offers something for every traveler. Whether you're drawn to its sweeping vistas, challenging hikes, or rich geological history, there's an adventure waiting for you.

Hiking into the Grand Canyon is like stepping back in time. Each rock layer reveals millions of years of Earth’s history. Even casual hikers descending just a short way on the Bright Angel or South Kaibab trails will notice the changing colors beneath their feet. For experienced hikers, reaching the Colorado River and Phantom Ranch is a rewarding challenge that requires preparation and endurance.

I've explored both the South and North Rims, and the differences are striking. The South Rim offers breathtaking scenery and the historic Desert View Watchtower, where you can take in the panoramic canyon and river views. Meanwhile, the North Rim feels more remote, and rock formations so close it feels like you can reach out and touch them. Each side provides a unique perspective of this natural wonder.

Whether you’re a hiker looking for the best trails or a geology buff eager to uncover the canyon’s past, I’ll craft a Grand Canyon adventure tailored to your interests, ensuring you experience the National Park at its fullest. Let's plan your Grand Canyon adventure. Contact me today.
