CairnThe Sedona Index

What is the cheapest way to take a guided tour of Sedona?

The least expensive guided tour of Sedona in this index is a trolley seat: the Boynton Canyon Trolley Tour from Red Rock Magic Trolley (from $22.95 USD per adult, 55 minutes). Jeep tours start at the Call of the Canyon Jeep Tour from Arizona Safari Jeep Tours ($59 USD per adult, 1 hour 30 minutes). Trolleys stay on paved roads with narration; jeeps cost more and go off-pavement into the Coconino National Forest backcountry. If the goal is simply to see the town with narration, the trolley is the budget answer; the jeep premium buys the backcountry itself. Every figure here was read from the operators' own websites and carries the date it was checked; none of these Sedona listings has been independently verified yet. This answer was last reviewed on August 29, 2026.

What the cheap seat does not include

A trolley stays on pavement. None of the red rock trail country — Broken Arrow, Diamondback Gulch, Soldier's Pass — is reachable by trolley; those are jeep trails under Coconino National Forest permits. The full side-by-side of both categories is on the jeep-or-trolley comparison page.
