Join us on Christian tour of the Grand Canyon, featuring a biblical creation perspective!
A Grand Canyon morning rim tour offers fewer crowds and a quieter landscape. Watch as long shadows of deep blues and purples give way to richer reds and oranges as the sun moves higher in the sky, providing more direct light into its depths.
During the tour, your guide will take you to several locations along the South Rim's Desert View Drive and will spend time sharing about the geology, plants, animals, and people's history of the canyon—and, of course, the biblical message of Creation and the Flood as recorded in the book of Genesis.
Start the day with the One who made it on a Grand Canyon Morning Rim Tour.
The meeting location is in the park, at the flag pole just outside the Grand National Park Visitor Center building. The Grand Canyon Visitor Center is the main one inside the park, not the IMAX building outside the park in Tusayan. After entry, follow the signs or park map to the Visitor Center.
08:00 AM
This activity ends back at the meeting point.
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 Minutes • Admission Ticket Not Included
Our tour meets at the flag pole just outside the Grand Canyon Visitor Center building INSIDE the park at tour start time.
10 Minutes • Admission Ticket Free
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 Minutes • Admission Ticket Free
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 Minutes • Admission Ticket Free
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 Minutes • Admission Ticket Free
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 Vermilion 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.
