To sum up or experience with Clint in one word…Amazing. My girlfriend and I visited Sedona for the first time in March. It was the first time either of us had been to Arizona, so our knowledge of the area was limited to what we read ahead of time. We started looking for tours because we really wanted to learn... More

My Sacred Earth Tour was a memorable experience to say the least. Clint reassured me that I could explore some awesome areas of Sedona, even with my bum knee. Since this was my first experience in Sedona I wanted to know about the flora and fauna and, of course, the history of the vortex phenomenon. He was very informative and... More

Thank you Sunlight! I enjoyed showing you my favorite spots around Sedona, and appreciate your willingness to venture intio the lesser-trodden zones, where some of the best niches can be found for peace and reflection/meditation. I am thankful for the trust you placed in me to guide you, and hope that you return to Sedona/Grand Canyon for a new adventure... More

I was thrilled with finding just what i needed out of my trip to Sedona. I felt that it was a true genuine experiences with Clint vs a overly touristy one. I loved that each day planned was a wonderful journey to new places. Clint was very flexible and easy going to make any changes that would enhance or ease... More

Dear Sarabeth, Your willingness to show up and be fully present and receptive for your four day retreat is the main reason it was a success. Your absorption of the plant medicines, sacred sites work and interpreting your own experience with penetrating insight made it easy for me to guide you and facilitate your retreat. It is my sincere hope... More

Last week, a group of women friends and I did a “Sacred Earth” day-trip to the Grand Canyon. We left our rental cars at our hotel in Flagstaff and Clint picked us up in a van, which enabled us to stay together. The day was glorious from start to finish. We travelled along the rim and stopped at several locations... More

Dear Carla, I had great fun with you and your friends, and you made it easy to be enthusiastic about the entire day! Thank you for your open-mindedness and your complete embrace of our beautiful land of Northern Arizona. It was fun getting away from the tourists and finding our little private secluded spots to enjoy some silence in the... More

Clint arranged multiple experiences for our family during our 4 day journey into Sedona. His spirit association with the land, and the people who provide spiritual ecperiences was a true blessing. I can not imagine why anyone would want to experience, not ony Sedona, but every day life, in any other way. To be guided to beauty, and through beauty... More

Dear Marylou, It was a profoundly gratifying experience to design a four-day retreat for you and your family! I feel an increasingly strong calling to work on these deeper levels, and was inspired by your receptivity and sincerity in terms of connecting with the spirit of the land here--and more importantly--your own spirit. How lucky I was (and all of... More

Our Grand Canyon tour with Clint Frakes was the perfect addition to our stay in the Sedona area. Not only did we get to see the gorgeous Canyon but Clint's knowledge of the area, its history, geology, wildlife and Native American customs added that extra special touch we were hoping for. The day was not rushed and totally geared to... More

Our tour experience with Mr. Frakes was well worth the time, the effort, and the expense. While the Jeep tours have a lot of press, we did not regret choosing the approach with Mr. Frakes. He completely tailored the outing to our interests - scenery, digital photography opportunities, history, geology, flora and fauna, and culture of the local people. His... More

Thank you Mamarino for allowing me to show you some of the hidden and overlooked parts of the Sedona Red Rock Country. There are so many layers and different types of beauty here that most casual visitors overlook, or simply never get the opportunity to see.

My recent afternoon with Clint Frakes was truly a cornerstone of my Sedona experience. I've taken more home from my afternoon with Clint than from the rest of my several enjoyable days in Sedona - and that is saying a lot. My trip began with an email confirmation of availability. From that moment forward, Clint worked with me to plan... More

Kia ora! Clint brings a great deal of wisdom, insight and sensitivity to his journeys. What I liked the most is he knows how to approach the spiritual places he takes people appropriately and respectfully. He honors all paths and it is clear he has a deep love of nature and people. The knowledge he shares is real and not... More

As a life long traveler, I've had my fair share of tour guides - both good and bad. Clint Frakes rates as one of the best. Seekers come to him for spiritual guidance, others for Native American history in the area, and all for his breadth of knowledge. This gentle man sees life as a published poet would - in... More
