Pink Jeep Tours marks nearly 25 years of exploring Southern Nevada, area attractions

Tourists stop to take photos of Pink Jeep Tours vehicles parked in the visitor center parking lot, Friday, Oct. 4, 2013, in Tusayan, Ariz. As a government shutdown caused the main attraction Grand Canyon National Park closure two miles away, Pink Jeep Tours have ceased to operate through the park, and other local business owners say they have scaled back to winter hours and staffing levels a month early.

Headquartered in Sedona, Ariz., and owned by Herschend — the company behind Dollywood, Silver Dollar City and the Harlem Globetrotters — Pink Jeep Tours first came to Southern Nevada in 2001, said Carol Keane, a senior guide who has been with Pink Jeep Tours for nearly two decades.
