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.
