My sister and I were going to book another tour with another company but thought the attractions would be too rushed luckily we found this company and it was excellent value for money. We weren't sure if we would be able to fit so much in ..3 days but it worked out fantastic we got to see so much with enough time at the places and our guide mike was full of so much knowledge and great stories and gave us pointers on where the best walking trails were and even gave us pointers for the rest of our trip as it was our first time to the states. We loved the fact it was a small group and Mike made the group feel like we were apart of his family or close friends. He also gave us an option of going to antelope canyon and organized it all for us at last minute. We also stopped at route 66 and at the las vegas sign. Mike would also stop if we asked, for other great photo opportunities. The places we went to eat were also really good and they were local businesses. I would definitely recommend Bindlestiff Tours to anyone as it isn't just another company looking to get money out of people like big companies they take pride in helping people to get the best value and time spent at the canyons and having a great time! It was the highlight of my 3 month trip to the USA.

Thank you so much to Rachel, Vernaroo and all the team at Bindlestiff Tours. Those three days absolutely blew my mind, it was jam packed with action and adventure and there was certainly never a dull moment. Our guide was a super guy, incre..dibly easy going yet professional and was able to accommodate for everyones needs. I couldn't recommend this trip enough, it was a great way to see a huge amount in a three day period. Read full review
Remarkable! Extraordinary value! I booked this tour from Australia hoping it would live up to its advertising blurb. I can happily report that it not only did that, it provided experiences, vistas, sights, information, efficiency and attent..ion to detail beyond my expectations. Mike, our extraordinarily gifted and proficient guide, ensured that each person on the tour was invited to the highest enjoyment of their own personal experiences through attention to detail and using his wide experience to meet the level of need each person individually displayed. Then the actual tour lived up to everything it promised with the places we visited. What excellent choices! What variety and interst was packed into this time! Every stop was worthwhile, exciting and splendid, breathtaking and unique. Zion, the Hoodoos, Monument Valley, Antelope Canyon, the Grand Canyon amongst other remarkable sights, brought huge satisfaction and accompanying awe!
I shall certainly recommend this tour to other travellers and congratulate Bindlestiff for its excellent delivery of their promises. Thank you.
Thank you again.

This is the best tour for the price:
* Seven states in 7 days, enjoyed a lot but not rushing, had enough time to enjoy sightseeing, took 3000+ beautiful pictures.
* TIM (the tour guide) is a gentleman, polite, and handsome too. TIM took t..ime to narrate the itinerary (clearly in English and Chinese) ahead of time so we enjoyed and learned a lot.
* Tim was so caring, he planned ahead for almost everything, especially for the meals on the trip, stopped at good places for reasonable meals, with variety choices for Asian, American, Italian, all you can eat Asian buffets, Mc Donald, Arby’s, even stopped at supermarkets.
* Andy, the bus driver, was a little quiet but a good driver, we felt safe and comfortable.
* All the 3STAR hotel, motel, inn, and cabin whichever we stayed were safe, comfortable, clean...
So many good things to mention, this trip is a must. My wife wants to have another trip right away with Tours4Fun.
Thanks TIM, Andy and Tours4Fun

I went on the 7-Day Bus Tour to Mt. Rushmore & Yellowstone. I can see so many places in 7 days. The most interesting place was Yellowstone National Park, the Old Failfull, the Geysers, the Mouth Rushmore. I wish the tour in the park was lo..nger and I could spend a night in the hotel inside the park. But the tour spend a night at the hotel outside the gate. The bus riding hours are very long. I recomment to take some games and books with you. The hotel in Denver, QV in sport center was bad. The bed sheets, blankets, and covers were dirty. Luckily I brought a light blanket with me. Other hotels were good. We went on the tour in mid May so the weather was very comfortable not too cold not too hot. Recommend to wear layer so you can take off if it's hot specially in Las Vegas. Due to the bear danger I could not go to the trail in Grand Teton. I only took the picture from outside. The tour guide speak a lot of Chinese language but did not translate much in English and I do not know Chinese language. I am Asian and people assume I am Chinese. So I see others were laughing and I do not know what they are laughing about. Recommend the tour guide translate all the conversation to English so the non Chineese speakers can enjoy the tour.Read full review
For Memorial Day weekend, me and my friends were looking for something fun and adventurous to do. Since Bindlestiff's 3 Day National Parks Tour only starts on Mondays, I sent them an e-mail asking if there would be a possibility to do a pri..vate tour a few days earlier. Rachel, my contact person at Bindlestiff who also turned out to be our tour guide, helped me organize everything and was so patient and helpful with the planning, I cannot stress enough.
The tour itself was completely packed with attractions, we saw Zion Canyon, Bryce Canyon, Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bend/Lake Powell within only two days! Rachel made it possible for us to enjoy each stop to its fullest, and we had a great time. We chose to camp for the night and, even though we had no experience camping and slightly dreaded spending a night outside, my friends and I sincerely loved our stay. The camping equipment that Bindlestiff had provided for us were rather new, and the camping ground had an amazing view over the landscape and all of its amenities were very clean. At night, we made a little campfire and ate some s'mores in the light of the full moon.
I seriously recommend planning a trip with Bindlestiff Tours. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable, experienced and friendly. We learned a lot about the geographical circumstances under which these canyons were created and she also knew a lot of fun facts, which I personally love to know :)
If you should need to alter the itinerary, just ask them! They are very accommodating will try hard to still make the trip happen! Our tour was one of my highlights of my stay in the US and I would definitely use Bindlestiff again if I were to come back!

Without the power pass I would have spent $173.30 on all the attractions I enjoyed on the strip and downtown. Some of the attractions I thought the admission price was to high but, with the power pass no problem
I visited the West side of US from Italy and had very few days available. I was so lucky to find Bindlestiff Tours. In 3 days, departing from Las Vegas I visited Zion Park, Bryce Canyon, Lake Powell, Grand Canyon and Monument Valley. I had ..the chance to hike in Zion Park, Bryce canyon at sunrise, and also had a helicopter tour over the grand Canyon. Rachel our tour guide was so nice that she even accommodated special requests and took us to extra spots like Antelope Canyon and Horsehoe Bend. AMAZING! The best thing about this tour is that it small groups-we had 9 and the tour was perfect we all go on really well and the evenings around the campfire were so much fun. The campground were super modern, hot showers, swimming pools and WIFI! We had a BBQ one night and a steak dinner the next-everyone chipped in to help and it was a great fun evening. The tents are top of the line REI tents and really comfy-they even provide air mattresses! Rachel also really knew her history-clearly an expert on the area which also meant we got to go off the beaten path....SERIOUSLY GREAT TOUR! I cant recommend this tour strongly enough.Read full review
This tour is a really high quality tour-small group touring at its best. It does not even compare to the big coach tours that you will mostly find on this site.
Our guide was outstanding, hotels high quality and the itinerary incredible...
The food is included in this tour making it amazing value for money.
Highly recommended

We joined the 7 day tour to Mt. Rushmore and Yellow Stone Sep.29- Oct.5. The tour was magnificent/spectacular/amazing. The driver was tireless he always had a smile on his face and the tour guide,Zach was a genius. He knew his history and ..geography w/o blinking. But what spoiled the trip was we we`re in the company of very rude no manners women from China. They pushed and shoved just to be the first to get off from the bus, not giving respect to one handicapped passenger in a wheelchair. My sister was hit in the head by one of them, with the woman`s backpack but no apology rendered. We suggest that the tour should give lessons or briefings on good manners and right conduct. Including covering your mouth when your coughing.Read full review
This was an amazing tour that covered more than 3000 miles and seven states in seven days. The tour guide Marc and driver Danny were great. Marc has provided lot of in depth and interesting information at every location. Hotel accommodati..on, breakfast, and lunch arrangements were excellent. This tour provided more value for the money.Read full review

A well organised tour which took us to all the sights I hoped to see (and more!). Our guide was very friendly and knew the places well; she even put up our tent for us (just as well as I had never camped before). If you are looking for a to..ur which takes you to the National Parks, I would thoroughly recommend this trip.

?Everything you could possibly need in a 3 day national park tour.?
The tour was fantastic. You see such amazing places in the simplest form. The camping was fun and the sights clean and scenic. Its a rush from place to place but Rachel ou..r tour guide was so organized that it was a smooth transition each time. Make sure there is lots of space on your camera. Your going to need it!

I just took this tour and it was amazing, its well worth spending the night here as the drive is 5 hours each way-we though about a one day tour but they only offer 3 hours in the park and that 's definitely not enough time.
We got to see ..a once in a lifetime sun rise and sunset and also had a really fun evening with a fun group around the campfire.
Our tour guide was really really fun and made a few additional stops which someone else in the group had requested whcih was really nice of him.
Excellent gear and brand new bus which was awesome!
AMAZING AMAZING AMAZINGRead full review
