Hello and welcome! I'm excited that you found me. It is in our nature to long to experience "awe, " which is what draws us to beautiful sunsets, majestic mountains and cavernous canyons. To be overwhelmed by something greater than ourselves drives us to connect with the expanse of nature. To share these experiences with you is why I guide. A little bit about my background. I am an adventure guide with over twenty years of experience. As an adventure racer, I've journeyed around the world doing some really crazy stuff like racing camels in Morocco, white water rafting in New Zealand, mountain biking through British Columbia and rappelling into icy canyons in Switzerland. As a mountain climber, I've been to the roof of Africa on Mt. Kilimanjaro (19, 341 feet) in 2014, as well as to the highest point in South America—Aconcagua (22, 838 feet) in 2016. I've also trekked to Everest base camp, Machu Picchu and climbed volcanoes in Mexico. Arizona has been my home for the past 15 years. In addition to the Phoenix area, my favorite locations to share with you are Grand Canyon and the red rocks of Sedona. I've guided internationally and throughout the southwest United States for over 20 years. I love creating custom trips to share my passion for Phoenix, Arizona and the great outdoors. Giving you memorable, once in a life time adventures is my goal! Let;s get outside together! Certifications: Wilderness First Responder, Wilderness First Aid, CPR I do not have any restrictions in regard to my guiding, I can offer a full range of experiences. If I lack expertise for certain activities, I have local contacts to join us for those portions of the tours, although I will still be leading you.

Book Will B if you are looking for an organized, memorable and fun experience in Sedona & the Grand Canyon. We had a fantastic two day tour with him, Day 1-Sedona Highlights, national monuments & other main attractions. Day 2 - Grand Canyon, where we stopped in areas not a lot of people know about. We had a nice cool hike which opened up to breathtaking and stunning views followed by a special picnic. He is punctual, friendly, professional and possesses an abundance of knowledge! Thank you so very much!
Trevor B.Australia
Having often used Tours By Locals for over 10 years, Will B would have to be among the best guides we have ever engaged. With his local knowledge & experience, he helped us plan a 5-day Phoenix Airport & return tour taking in Sedona, 2 days/nights at Grand Canyon (you CANNOT properly taste GC in less than this) & Phoenix attractions of interest to us. Throughout our tour Will was a great conversationist and fully attentive to our needs and pace as a couple aged in their 70s. He is a great asset to TBL.
Margie D.United States
The trip was AMAZING. Will B was perfect in every way! He made the trip so much fun!!! He had so much knowledge of the areas that we visited. He took special care of my 78 year old father and made the experience so memorable for him! I will be forever grateful. What an amazing adventure!!
Rose S.United States
Exactly what we were looking for! Will was a great guide that gave us enough info but didn't overdo it. We saw sites that were off the beaten path and enjoyed good conversation. Highly recommended.

Your Phoenix tour itinerary
-Our trip begins at 6:30 in the morning at our mutually agreed upon pick-up location. Day one will be spent in Sedona. We will arrive in the Sedona area by 9 am and have a full morning of sight seeing, hiking or other activities prior to lunch. After lunch we will continue our exploration of the area until we check into our hotel and have dinner. -After a good night sleep, we will have breakfast before departing for Grand Canyon. We will arrive in Grand Canyon by 9 am and have another full morning of sight seeing, hiking or other activities before lunch. After lunch we will have until around 2 pm to finish up our exploration of the south rim, at which time we will depart for Phoenix with an approximate 6 pm arrival time. -Special gear recommendations: I strongly suggest wearing a hat, sun glasses and sun screen. Good hiking shoes and a day pack for water and lunch is also necessary.
