There was no excitement or welcome attitude from the tour guide Dennis. Explanations were not clear. He presumed that we know the area, but we don't.He gavel us limited informations on what we have to do on the bus stopped area. Lunch box ..was incomplete, missing the dessert fruit and the water was given only when I asked about it. No apology was expressed. He also did not dress up as a tour guide. He was dressed like going to a ball game. The driver was also speeding and it was pretty scary because it was a long stretched of winding roads and humpy roadRead full review
We arrived safely & upper Antelope Canyon & Horseshoe bend was great, but the bus was old & didn't have a working bathroom and the tour guide was either insensitive or a little ignorant of Native American culture. Also, they had us travel ..to meet up with the bus only to be transported by a van to the bus which later made a pick up at the hotel we were staying at. When we informed the tour guide of this she asked why we traveled so far. We explained that that was the pick up stop that we were texted. She did apologize, but upon returning we had to ask to get off at a closer stop to our hotel.Read full review
100% National Park 3 Day Tour - Great trip - really enjoyable
By: Anonymous | Sun Sep 29, 2019 at 12.00 AM
We chose the lodging option so stayed in hotels for the 2 nights of this trip. We had a great bunch of people on the tour from the UK, US, Australia and NZ and Chris was our tour leader. He was great, provided loads of great information and.. brought fun to the tour. We really enjoyed seeing Zion National Park, Bryce Canyon, Glen Canyon, Monument Valley, Grand Canyon and parts of Route 66 on our way back to Las Vegas.
The days are full on - early starts with days finishing about 7pm - apart from last day which is about 8-8.30 pm. However there are loads of opportunities during the day to stretch legs and have a break from the minibus - this is in addition to the longer breaks for going on trails/walks at the National Parks/Canyons. We did not do any of the optional tours but Antelope Canyon seemed to have been really good,
The pre-tour communication from them was really good and helpful in terms of clothing to bring and what to pack. The bags go in a trailer behind the bus - so I would recommend keeping suitcase sizes small if possible. I know that some tour members kept their main suitcases at their respective hotels in Las Vegas and just brought the equivalent of carry on suitcases on the tour. Chris arranged for all the suitcases to be delivered to our hotel room both nights which was really helpful.
We are new to doing tours but delighted that we found Tours and highly recommend them.Read full review

It was a great tour! Yes, it was a long day but the canyons and views along the way were totally worth the long bus ride. My initial thought was that I wished we had a smaller group but then I realized that the tour bus we were on was proba..bly much more comfortable than a 14 passenger van! The size of our group turned out to be a non-issue anyway. At Horseshoe Bend, you hike the trail at your own pace and view the canyon on your own. Once at Antelope Canyon, they take you in groups of 14 and there is one group after another entering the canyon. At both attractions, there were many other tourists there from other tour operators and those who had driven on their own - so there's really no way of avoiding crowds at peak viewing times anyway. Our tour was well organized. Our guide Eva was very pleasant and kept the tour moving smoothly and on schedule.. The bus is showing its age a bit but was fine for the day. The Navajo guides at Antelope were excellent as well. Really glad we took this tour!Read full review
I did not get an updated itinerary before we departed. Therefore I had different expectations of where we would stay etc.
Our driver (Miles) was excellent, very calm, courteous, personable and an excellent driver. He drove over a thousand.. miles and stayed cheerful at all times!
The guides Stefano and Hiro were helpful and knowledgeable. It was noticeable that Hiro’s Japanese tourists received resources and maps that we didn’t receive. Stefano was exceptionally patient and gave interesting information.
Overall the tour was excellent value for money.
In Page there are restaurants within walking distance of the hotel but we were advised to buy supermarket food and eat in our bedrooms which was unnecessary. There is a Marriot courtyard bistro just 10m away and other places within 15 m walk. This is not the guide’s fault, as a company you could provide a local map with eating places and distances marked. Too much reliance on fast food outlets isn’t healthy.
The Valley of Fire was excellent and we would have happily stayed longer.Read full review
Joseph Paul Olguin was an excellent,fun, and knowledgeable tour guide. He is priceless! We were 12 people from 8 different countries. I was the only American citizen born in the U.S. It was a fabulous time together.We learned a lot about ea..ch other. We became close like family. We enjoyed participating in the work and camping out . Everywhere we went we met fine people. The native american guides at each place we visited (Monument Valley and Antelope Canyon) knew so much and brought the place to life . At the Grand Canyon the information we learned about geology, minerals and the erosion time line was inspiring to me. I am part native american and cajun, so I appreciated the history being told to us. Joseph did a superb job helping us appreciate what we were seeing.There is too much that we enjoyed that i can not really write about it all. It would take too much time. Good Job! I will try to take more small tour trips in the future.Thanks !!!Read full review
La compra fue buena y sencilla, lo único es que en el momento del tour, el conductor iba bastante rápido y de golpe frenaba (incluso nuestro guía se cayó 2 veces). Y la única cosa que no me gusto para nada es que el guía casi deja a d..os clientes en el horse bend. Por lo demás, todo bien!Read full review
The tour was well organized and there was sufficient time to enjoy every location we visited. The tour is great for people who want to see these parks but do not have the time to take a week off. No time is wasted during the trip, start to ..finish. Our guide Bradley was awesome. If you are not into camping, I recommend the lodging option.Read full review
Frank our tour guide was very very good.
Our driver was aggressive. Frank fell twice when he made sudden stop. At least we came back safe and sound.
I wish we had more time walking to the horseshoe bend.
An hour is not enough.
I love Lowe..r Antelope Canyon. The tour guide was so good spending time to take pictures for all of usRead full review

Excellent circuit, dense, very well organized. The camping formula allows you to be closer to the parks and to live in Monumental Valley an unforgettable sunset and sunrise. Our guide Brad has taken the history and geology of these parks, a..ll with anecdotes and lots of humor. It is strongly recommended to visit Anteloppe Canyon and to participate in the meals offered.
