Private Montezuma Castle - Tuzigoot National Mont.

Miguel was very knowledgeable about the history of the area and the indigenous people of the southwest.

Great experience and lots of knowledge about the area from our guide Bob. Comfortable ride and went at our pace. Recommended places for our later touring as well! Highly recommend

My friend and I went on a private tour of Montezuma's Castle and the Tuzigoot National Monument. We went through TripAdvisor, which booked our tour with First Class Charters and Guide Miguel Montoya. We booked a private tour because we are seniors, and I have an issue walking. These sites are very easy walking as both have maintained trails or paved walkways. It was a rainy day, but that provided a beautiful sky in contrast to all the red rocks, and we managed to dodge most of the raindrops! Miguel was an exceptional guide. Great knowledge of the history of all the areas we visited. He also provided us with a wonderful ride around Sedona when we opted not to go to the Well because of the rain. He also plays the flute and he can sing, having recorded many songs he has written. It was a lovely experience to have him play several songs of his while we were riding around. I would highly recommend Miguel.

Marc was so good at explaining the history and structure of the ruins and gave us a luxury experience like no other. Thoroughly enjoyable, very educational and very fun!

Miguel was our guide and he was really good. We enjoyed the heritage sites and he was very cognizant of the heat and trying to mitigate it. He was sensitive to my wife’s bad knee and was willing to change the venue to another but that one was closed so he went back to Montezuma's well which he thought would be more rigorous but it turned out ok. He is very knowledgeable about the local history and the various sites. He has many years of experience. He is always reading and studying deeper into the history of these sites. At the sites he played his two types of flutes. We enjoyed the adventure very much.

Our tour guide Bob was amazing and had so much information! We would even ask him questions, and he had the answer to all of them. He was funny and a joy to be around. To see the montezuma castles & tuzigoot was a experience I’ll never forget!

We had an excellent tour of Montezuma's Castle and Tuzigoot. Our guide, Bob was so informative and also so entertaining!

Mark was very knowledgeable and very professional. He loves his life and where he lives and it shows.

This was an awesome tour. Our guide, Bob, made the tour exceptional. His knowledge and presentations made the tour, the most memorable tour we have ever taken. It covered two site, the Tuzigoot National Monument and Montezuma's Castle. The tour of Tuzigoot allowed for a close of look at the architecture of small settlements. Giving us the opportunity to have an understanding of how the Sinaqua would build for survival, daily living and protection. This was followed by visiting the second site Montezuma's Castle. The one thing that was out of everyone's control was not being able to see inside the Castle. Unfortunately, only archaeologist have been able to physically be in the structure since 1951. It is still an amazing site to see.

Breath taking. Not sure how they did that without technology!! Walking thru was really beautiful! Take a mask if you want a souvenir!

Ken was a wonderful guide! We really appreciated his flexibility and insight into the Native American ruins we visited while on our trip to AZ. When our daughter expressed interest in seeing a particular town, he rearranged the route to include a quick mini-adventure to a mine, and drove us through that town to we could see it. Excellent trip and guide!

The guide, Bob, was impressively knowledgeable and shared his love of history with great enthusiasm. My husband and I truly enjoyed our experience and will definitely recommend this excursion to all who are heading this way!!

This was a great trip. We had our own private car and Bob our guide was great. Personal and knowledgeable. I never new these sites where there and they are something to see especially Montezumaz castle. You can do these sites on your own but you won’t get as much out of without a tour.

Bob our guide was great. We had a wonderful time. Tour was informative and entertaining. We highly recommend

Montezuma's castle and Tuzigoot show two different Indian dwellings of the past. Both are interesting in their complexity of construction, and their glimpse into the life of these local tribes. Definitely worth the visit.

This is a small park with quite a bit to see if you keep your eyes open. Look around the display in the visitor center first. The castle is quite something. The area was alive with animal life and interesting plants when we were there. Plenty happening in the creek. Best go in the morning for photos of the castle.

Bob was an excellent tour guide and was both fun to talk with as well as very knowledgeable about the history of the sites. Well worth the money and time.

We went with First class tours of Sedona. Driver/guide was excellent. Very informative about the sites. Lovely little museum at Tuzigoot and facinating cliff dwelling. Easy walking on paved paths to and around all the sites from car parks We included Montezumo Well in this trip - some steps at this site. Would definitely recommend a visit
