The Chapel of the Holy Cross rises straight out of Sedona's red rock walls, a striking modernist sanctuary cradled between twin sandstone spires just south of the main town. Built into the cliffs in 1956, this iconic landmark is one of the most photographed sites in Arizona, and seeing it framed by the surrounding buttes from the open-air Jeep is an experience that postcards simply cannot capture. The Ultimate Sedona Experience Jeep Tour weaves the Chapel of the Holy Cross into a larger story of geology, faith, and frontier history, giving you context that a quick roadside stop would never reveal.
From the comfort of the Jeep, your guide points out the vantage points where the Chapel of the Holy Cross seems to emerge organically from the rust-colored stone, glowing warm in the desert sun. You will hear how the chapel's bold cross-shaped facade was designed to harmonize with the cathedral-like formations around it, and how the surrounding landscape of juniper, manzanita, and towering red rock has drawn pilgrims, artists, and seekers for generations. The contrast between the rugged backcountry trails earlier in the tour and the serene, sculptural presence of the chapel makes this stretch of the journey especially memorable, with the scent of warm earth and pinyon pine drifting through the open vehicle.
This tour is ideal for travelers who want more than scenery: families looking for a smooth introduction to Sedona, couples chasing dramatic photo moments, and history and architecture lovers who appreciate places with a story. Anyone drawn to the spiritual energy that Sedona is known for will find the Chapel of the Holy Cross to be a quiet, grounding highlight among the towering vistas. Settle into the Jeep, let the red rocks roll past, and let the Chapel of the Holy Cross show you a side of Sedona that stays with you long after the dust settles.

The tour was fantastic—such a fun, bumpy adventure! Anders, our guide, made the experience even better. He was engaging and great with the kids, kept us entertained with his jokes, and answered all of our questions. He was incredibly friendly and very knowledgeable throughout the entire tour.
