This is the second tour we have taken with Rachel from Bindlestiff Tours and we are already planning our third. This year, our group of 8 did an overnight tenting/ hotel tour of the Grand Canyon. Rachel is incredibly knowledgeable and accom..modating. She always plans several different scenarios that will suit everyone within your group and contingencies for circumstances such as rain.
We left from Las Vegas and on the way stopped at two different mining towns. El Dorado where we enjoyed a guided tour of a no longer functioning mine and the surrounding area; then quirky Oatman, a ghost town where we had fun exploring, amazed at the wild burros roaming throughout and had lunch at a historic inn.
At the Grand Canyon we were able to experience both sunrise and sunset. It was a fantastic experience. Some of our group chose to do a short hike down into the Canyon with Rachel while others walked on a path along the rim. As with all of our stops, you never feel rushed and have plenty of time experience everything and to take all the pictures you might want. On way back to Vegas we made one more stop along Rt. 66 in Seligman, Arizona the inspiration for the movie “Cars”.
If you are planning on doing any sight seeing, Rachel and XXXXX Tours is a must. The van is extremely comfortable and everything for your tour will been well thought out in advance. Tours with Rachel are amazing!Read full review
Nuestro guía turistico lo fue Wesley y hizo muy buen trabajo. Lo único malo de esta excursión es que no hacen parada en todos los hoteles y tienes que llegar a una de las paradas ya establecidas. El MGM no es una de ellas. Todo lo demás.. muy bueno relacionado a la visita al Gran Cañon. Recomendada la excursión para todo el que visita Las Vegas!!!Read full review
The tour was generally well guided and organised. It would be considered to be well worth the money, however, exclusion of Arches National Park in the 6 days package tour is a major let down.
We enjoyed the trip and the Hualapai indian lunch and view.What we didnt like was being asked to also tip the operator.Who?Did not mind tipping the guide and driver.
Tour is well with the price! You get to see many places in such a short time. The drawback is the trip is rushed and you start very early in the morning. There isn't much time for shopping and souvenirs. But if your looking to see many cool.. places and start in good accomadations this is the tour for you!Read full review
I recently went on a 3 day tour of some pretty spectacular National Parks with Bindlestiff Tours. Given the limited time, we managed to visit some incredible places that included Zion, Bryce, Antelope Canyon, Monument Valley and Grand Canyo..n. Each is so different from the other and well worth a visit (or many!) Our tour leader, Joel was an excellent guide who shared his passion for the back country, knowledge about the land, its history and people and always had quotations from literature and poetry that were relevant to the region. He played his guitar while the group sat around the campfire and shared his stories and insights about the geographical landscape, the native people and anecdotes and stories about the places we visited - things you won't find very easily (or at all) in a guide book! The van is comfortable, camp sites are great (amenities and views!) and I'd recommend all the additional activities that come with the tour. You won't regret having a meal with a Navajo family or flying over the Grand Canyon in a helicopter!Read full review
My husband and I had a wonderful time! It was our first time to try a bus tour, major props to our tour guide Benny and our bus driver Carlos! They made the trip all the more fun! Hoping to get then next time we avail a bus tour from Tours4..Fun. The hotel accomodations were surprisingly good, considering the tour price, definitely worth it! And the tour view points, beautiful! Not to mention the absence of stress of thinking about the drive, gas, accomodations... Just get on the bus, relax, sight-see, and enjoy!Read full review
it was well organized and minus the zoo all attraction were interesting and worth spending time and money. I just wish we could spend more time in Acadia National park.

Generally we were happy with what we got from what we had paid for in this trip. The following are a few suggestions that could have made our trip more enjoyable:
1. shorter bus time: Our daily bus time was from 6 am or 6: 30 am to at lea..st 9:30 pm.
2. longer sleep time: Our daily sleep was about 5.5 hours only. We woke up before 5 am in order to get on the bus on time and arrived at our hotels after 9:30 pm either before or after dinner.
3. longer meal time: Each of our meal time was so short and so rush that many co-passengers had no time to sit down for meals but had to pack to eat in the bus to avoid lateness.
4. the interpretation on points of interests by the tour guide be increased: the voice could be clearer and louder, too.Read full review
This 3 day tour took us to places we would not have seen by ourselves including Zion and Bryce Canyons, Antelope Canyon and Monument Valley and also the Grand Canyon. Mike's extensive knowledge of the history, geology and landscapes found i..n these areas really made the tour for us. This is a fast paced tour seeing a lot in 3 days, however Mike had everything well organised to give us ample time to explore at our own pace in each place. The sights we saw were absolutely spectacular and the local people we met added further to our experience. We will fondly remember our time in this part of the United States.Read full review
I went on the 3-day national park tour to Zion, Bryce, Monument Valley, Antelope Canyon and Grand Canyon in May and it was one of the best things I've ever done. Absolutely amazing itinerary that packed so many things into 3 days without it.. feeling too rushed. If you have limited time but want to do as many things as possible do this tour! If you are looking to do the big hikes in the national parks like Angels Landing or the Narrows you won't have time so keep that in mind. Jenny was our guide and was so incredibly patient and well organised, really appreciate everything she did for us. Camp sites were great and the included food was also really good. would recommend this tour to anyone! 5 STARS!!Read full review
