Just wanted to say thank you for the tour we completed today. Chris did a great job
keeping us all on schedule and more importantly safe throughout. Even last night
when we were hit by a sandstorm while camping! Great tour and scenery ‘..Grand’
does not do the canyon justice! Bryce and antelope canyons were certainly our
unexpected highlights.Read full review
Always wanted to see monument valley but never been camping before I had some
trepidation, I needn't have concerned myself , it was brilliant, made exciting and fun
by our amazing guide Bradley, the guy is totally cool, helpful, friendly ..and
knowledgeable. The canyons were everything I could have wished for and I even got
to see condors in flight! Even the meals were good and the rest breaks on the
longish drives perfectly positioned, all in all a wonderful experience, thank you
Bradley and Bindlestiff tours, highly recommendedRead full review
At first I was a bit skeptical because I had never been camping and as a solo traveler
could not assess what to expect. These thoughts quickly disappeared when I met the
guide and the group. We all got along right away and apart from a co..uple, they were
all solo travelers. When you book this tour, you have to be aware that you spend a
lot of time in the van. But that makes the beautiful walks, for example, through the
Bryce Canyon National Park or the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone again. Also the
camping is great: no hotel can keep up with the evening campfire and cooking
together. To stay in the great outdoors was the icing on the cake. Finally, one would
like to visit the wonders of nature (National Parks) - it is all the better if you can also
see sunrise and sunset without further efforts. The tour is highly recommended.Read full review
3 day national parks tour from Las Vegas - Karen
We recently took the 3 day park explorer tour and had the trip of a lifetime! This
was due in no small part to our tour guide, Chris. He was there at every step of the
way to take care of us ..and make sure that we all had an amazing trip. Chris
consistently went above and beyond all day (and night!) including rescuing us from
a surprise 2 am sandstorm and helping us batten down the hatches on our tents. No
matter what the situation (or hour), he always had a positive, warm and
enthusiastic attitude. We always felt safe in his hands despite encountering three
bouts of sudden extreme weather. (He guided us through two sandstorms and a
giant hail storm!) We also particularly appreciated the fact that he made sure that
we had vegan fare at breakfast, lunch and dinner. ( We actually came prepared with
our own freeze dried camping food just in case, but never needed to touch it.) He
took us to some bonus sites of interest to our group and always made sure that 14
diverse individuals with different needs and interests had an amazing time. I would
definitely book any other tour he was leading without hesitation!
Thank you again for an amazing time! We hope to travel again with you in the
future!Read full review

I had a great time with a group of people. Joe is a wonderful tour guide, he is funny but very responsible for the driving and the safety issues of us. I also enrolled in another camping tour of another company. I have to say your company i..s much much better. Also, the views from these national parks were amazing.Read full review
We loved this tour! We got to discover breathtaking places and see beautiful landscapes with the trails and hikes we did. We highly recommend this tour specially thanks to our guide, Evan! He was thoughtful, caring and responsible and alway..s met the group's needs. He made great meals and with him we got to enjoy the most authentic american flavours — from an amazing dinnner at a Diné family's home to a burger on the side of Route 66! — Evan was always ready to answer all our questions with super nice story telling skills, as well as leadership to create a team spirit in the group. Thank you Evan for the great adventure with fantastic soundtrack.Read full review
This was truly an unforgettable experience from start to finish. Chris, our tour guide, was beyond amazing. He really seemed to go out of his way to ensure that we all had a memorable experience, and we certainly did. I was blown away by ho..w knowledgeable Chris was about every location we visited. I could probably go on and on, but Chris was just all around great--very friendly, hardworking, and attentive. The tour itself was one that I will never forget. I was so happy that we got to see all that we did in just 3 days. That being said, the trip didn't feel rushed or hectic; everything was perfect. I can't stop raving about your tour to my friends and family and I 100% look forward to touring with them in the future. After such an incredible experience, I cannot imagine touring with anyone else!Read full review
An excellent tour, with travel times and well-planned visits that allowed us to know and enjoy the natural beauties of the parks visited. Our guide, Brad, always proactive in providing information, greatly contributed to making the most of ..the tour (thank you Brad). The optional visit to Antelope Canyon is a must. A great tour that I strongly advise anyone who wants to know this area of the USA.Read full review
My wife and I crowned our 7-week round the world trip with this most memorable tour.
As Australian, we love camping and great outdoors. Bindlestiff Tours went beyond our expectations.
Our diverse group of 11 came from the US, Germany, ..Switzerland, Korea and Australia and we soon became friends.
I couldn’t thank Joel our friendly guide enough. He is very well organised and thorough in planning ahead. His advance briefing gave us interesting options on how best to enjoy each site within our physical limit and time allowed. He is most knowledgeable in history, geology, geography and legends of the canyon country. I find it very entertaining as he related stories and shared his experience and quoted from a rare book, The Desert. Obviously he loves the awesome ancient landscape and the Navajo people.
In summary - great adventure, best tour guide, balanced and well paced and value for money. Highly recommended.Read full review
We had so much fun! It was very educational. I enjoyed all the parks and even enjoyed the hiking and camping too. I bought a book at the visitor center. Grand Canyon rim trail hike showed samples of different rock formations that are very o..ld. The oldest was 1.7 billion yrs old! Yes billion. Our tour guide was awesome. He was very knowledgeable about the history of the area. He was also funny and approachable. Also enthusiastic. Please don’t forget to tip your guide. Everything was so worth it!!!Read full review
This trip was a great way to experience the beauty of these parks! Our whole family really enjoyed this trip. The visits to the parks were made easy for us, including suggestions about the activities we would have time for at each of our st..ops. We enjoyed meeting the other people in our group and hearing the stories from our guide Evan. We would definitely recommend this company!Read full review
The trip was extremely well run, organised and a very busy itinerary. The tour leader Evan was fantastic and extremely knowledgeable. The hikes and camping at monument valley is a once in a lifetime experience!
We just got back from the 3 day tour and we had an amazing time! Joel, our guide was wonderful and made the trip so special! He is so knowledgeable and My whole family learned so much from him. You made everything so easy and we are all so ..pleased with the experience, the tour group size was perfect and all the details of the three days could not have gone better! So happy and just wanted to let you know how thankful we are for a lifelong full of memories of this trip! It is rare that we find something that the whole family loves and this was it hands down.Read full review
We did this tour recently - it was excellent in all respects. The tour guide was very competent and professional, the fifteen seater coach comfortable, accommodation more than adequate and the itinerary well paced.
