Roadrunner Shuttle Grand Canyon Tours:

See the red rock country of Sedona as you head towards Grand Canyon National Park in a beautiful brand new Mercedes Benz Sprinter Van. There see the beautiful views from at the canyon's South and East rims. The steep-sided Grand canyon was carved out by the Colorado River in the Sedonas of the state of Arizona.

Nearly two billion years of the Earth's geological history has been exposed as the Colorado River and its tributaries cut their channels through layer after layer of rock while the Colorado Plateau was uplifted. The Grand Canyon is 277 miles long, up to 18 miles wide and attains a depth of over a mile (6,000 feet / 1,800 meters.

President Theodore Roosevelt was a major proponent of preservation of the Grand Canyon area, and visited it on numerous occasions to hunt and enjoy the scenery. It is considered one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World.

While the specific geologic processes and timing that formed the Grand Canyon are the subject of debate by geologists, recent evidence suggests the Colorado River established its course through the canyon at least 17 million years ago. Since that time, the Colorado River continued to erode and form the canyon to its present-day configuration.

You will see that for thousands of years, the area has been continuously inhabited by Native Americans who built settlements within the canyon and its many caves. The Pueblo people considered the Grand Canyon ("Ongtupqa" in Hopi language) a holy site and made pilgrimages to it. The first European known to have viewed the Grand Canyon was García López de Cárdenas from Spain, who arrived in 1540.
