Overview

This private tour is a reflection of years of guiding culminating in an opportunity for the guests to both experience and learn about the history, facts and theories of the Vortex phenomena. The concept is that the more one learns about the Vortex, the more one is able to connect to it and Sedona, thus deepening the experience of both.
The potential geological influence is astounding and is part of a very unique anomaly that geologists come from all over the world to observe first hand. This is believed to be most prominent reason special energies exist here. This in turn has created a draw to the area for eons for people wanting to do spirit/vision quests, learn, heal, strengthen and tap into their creative side.
This in turn might be the biggest reason why a certain unique ancient ancestral history evolved here and was preserved.... a history connecting and potentially helping to unite all of humanity.

    Airport Mesa

    At Airport Mesa Vortex. Guests will get to experience its energy as well as take in the spectacular view overlaying many other formations. From this vantage point we will see the layout of the town and what's called The Four Directions of Sedona. You will then be able to visualize how the rest of your tour will proceed. Key geological insights will be pointed out that potentially contribute to the Vortex Energy. Key locations to the Vortex history will also be pointed out here. Please note I'm adding additional information here because there wasn't a place to add it elsewhere on this site. The name of my company is Adventure Explore and Soar. I started it in July, 2021. There was a non correctable computer error made when setting up this site that resulted in me having to name this site after my name instead of my company name. Thank you for your interest :)

    Chapel of the Holy Cross

    This Vortex site has an amazing energy to feel and an incredible story behind it. Most leave with a great feeling after hearing the story and experiencing this site :) Please note here is some more additional information I could not add elsewhere on this site: I have been a guide since 2005 and have done thousands of tours in Sedona, Grand Canyon, Antelope Canyon, Lake Powell, and other areas of Arizona and the South West. I estimate I've done about 500 vortex tours for other companies and trained many guides for these tours as well. Thank you again for your interest ☺

    Sedona

    This is a local secret Vortex Site, so I cannot publish its name, hence the location being "Sedona, Sedona, Arizona." This site is my personal favorite of the acclaimed Vortexes. The views from it are incredible and there will be few people there. I witness many people having amazing positive feelings and reactions to this place, especially at its pinnacle spot.P.S. If you are unable to book this tour because I'm already booked up during your stay, I recommend these companies as an alternative: 1. Lisa Brewer of Oak Creek Canyon Tour Co 2. Tara Golden of Sedona Scavenger Hunts 3.. Robert Jackson of Blue Bear Tours 4. Chris and Neena of Grand Canyon Journeys

    Sedona

    This is also a local secret Vortex Site, so once again, the name is not published. This site has a spectacular indigenous ceremonial medicine wheel and labyrinth both built by local acclaimed medicine persons. I will do a calling of directions ceremony and afterwards guests can walk the labyrinth. We will then sit at a picnic table there and I will explain the "Grand Finally" of what is believed to make Sedona unique of the acclaimed energetic areas of the Southwest and why it was therefore given its unique indigenous name.Note: Guests are free to eat and drink in the vehicle and at some of the sites SO PLEASE PACK YOUR FAVORITE FOOD/LUNCH AND DRINKS WITH YOU :) You will probably need them to keep your energy up throughout tour. It's an adventure! :))
