About

Sedona is all about the skylines. Towering spires jut spectacularly into the open sky in every direction you look. On the Skyline tour, we soar south off the airport mesa to view the incredible Cathedral Rock, then on towards the famous Bell Rock and Courthouse Butte. Turning north towards the Chapel of the Holy Cross, we wave “hello” to Snoopy Rock as we cross over Oak Creek Canyon making our way back to the airport mesa.
