Hike the South Kaibab Trail to Cedar Ridge for sweeping canyon views and a guided biblical creation perspective on its geology and history.

About this tour

Hike below the rim and see the Grand Canyon from the South Kaibab Trail, where sweeping vistas and layered rock formations unfold with every step. This guided Grand Canyon hiking tour pairs dramatic scenery with a biblical creation perspective on the canyon’s geology and history.

Follow the historic ridgeline trail more than 1,000 feet down to Cedar Ridge, then return to the starting point for a 3-mile round trip. Along the way, your Canyon Ministries guide shares insights about the canyon’s features, fossils, and past. The route offers a close-up look at the landscape and panoramic views that are hard to appreciate from the rim alone.

Meet at the flagpole outside the Grand Canyon Visitor Center inside the park. Bring a packed lunch, sunscreen, comfortable hiking shoes, and at least 2 liters of water; park entry is not included.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.97 from 60 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Grand Canyon National Park
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 8.5. Top 19% in Grand Canyon National Park means it ranks in the top 19% of tours in Grand Canyon National Park by this score.
