the places we visited were great and also the accomodations during the tour are good. Ingrid the guide for english people well prepared and a very sweet person. Unfortunately in Sedona we couldn't visit the vortex because no tour was availa..ble. maybe it could be organized in advance by tour operator and add to the tour. Even if I don't need it, the guide for Italian people did some not properly professional comments on his colleagues and didn't translated all.Read full review
My tourguide Ho wu. He is nice person, and he take care everyone in the bus even people from different county. The Cadillac peck so beautiful. And bar harbor lobster so good. Thank you time to remember every menmnt !
This is amazing trip. I m so glad. I met my tourguide Hao wu who from LL tour. He was funny guy. I interduce food ice cream and the place where take picture better to us. Thanks for everything.
The driver was difficult to understand. I understood maybe half of what he said. Others on the bus agreed with me.
Why tell us something is up ahead or on the right or on the left and drive too fast for us to actually see it?
Bay crui..se was much better, with good narration. Very long line to get on boat - not a good thing.Read full review
It was our family's first time to the Grand Canyon. For the amount of hours on the bus, the seats were snug and there was not a lot of foot room to move around. When sandwiches were given, eating on the bus was not very easy due to the la..p space. The sandwiches were good, but giving us 15 min to eat a sandwich like a human on a table at the stop on Route 66, would have been perfect and the weather was so fantastic too. But putting all aside, the driver was ok, he did not give any historical info on Hoover Dam but emphasized "numerous" times the Grand Canyon 3 mile trail and to be by the bus no later than 3PM. We got back to our hotel around 8:30'ish.
The bus ran out of water by the time we reached the Canyon. That is when the water was needed. This bus did not go to the Depot and we were picked up late.
Putting everything aside, the Grand Canyon South Rim is magnificent, majestic and just fantastic. It is a Wonder of the World!Read full review
This 7 day trip (August 6th-13th) in the Southwest canyons was simply amazing. It was our first experience camping and it will definitely not be the last! The landscapes that surrounded us during our hikes were breathtaking. We often got to.. see the sun set behind the mountains, displaying a fantastic range of colors.
Among my numerous favorite moments: the time Joel -our guide- took us to Dead horse point where we watched the night fall from a ledge overlooking the vast landscape before us, while listening to him reading some extracts from one of his favorite books, capturing the quiet but captivating beauty of the desert.
Another highlight would be the hike in the middle of the hoodoos in Bryce canyon: the warm orange colors are really unique. But every other place was spectacular as well: admiring Zion canyon from a high viewpoint at Angel’s landing was totally worth the climbing! We also got to see a few massive arches in Canyonlands, not to mention the impressive landscape in Monument Valley. I especially appreciated the hospitality of the Navajo family who welcomed us into their home to enjoy a traditional taco, while learning more about their culture.
I would also recommend the optional activities: Antelope canyon is the ideal place to take artistic pictures; the Hummer tour is awesome for those who like the thrill of a bumpy ride and the helicopter tour allows you to fully realize and admire the majesty of the Grand Canyon.
I really want to thank Joel who turned this amazing trip into an unforgettable experience, with his usual good humor. He shared his passion for the desert and the canyons as well as his knowledge of the region in history and geology, which was much appreciated during the car rides. I particularly enjoyed the night when we sat around a campfire, listening to him singing old songs while playing the guitar…
Everyone in the group was very friendly and our week was full of memorable moments.
I would highly recommend this tour with Bindlestiff and I myself sincerely wish to discover another part of the US with this wonderful company!

It was a very interesting tour. Ingrid the guide for english speaking people highly professional and adorable. The driver Mel a great guy. He drove very well and really friendly and professional. Some negative points for the guide for Itali..an people Alessio because he didn't translated properly what Ingrid told and I cannot define him so professional towards his colleagues. I didn't need any translation so I got all exhaustive explanations during the tour.Read full review
