We had a great trip on this Grand Canyon tour yesterday. There was enough time for everything, and we'll never forget this awesome tour. I have already recommended it to friends and family.
The tour was great! I took my parents to go, the bus is new and clean, about 2.5 hour to GRAND CANYON, the view is great! can not forget in my life. and our driver was great, he drive safely! Thank you for a great day!
100% This was definitely a trip to remember forever

This was definitely a trip to remember forever. From the very beginning our tour
guide Evan appeared to be a fun, knowledgeable guide and I knew this trip was
going to be fun and exciting.
Day 1:
Driving about 3+ hours
Hiking about 4+ ..hours
Evan picked up our group in Stratosphere on Sunday July 1. We decided to fly in
from NY and stay in the Stratosphere just for convenience which was cool because
we got our first taste of Las Vegas. Evan was right on time and ready to go. As soon
as everyone was settled in the van and introduced ourselves, Evan gave us the
choice of music: either Elvis or Sinatra: Our group selected Sinatra. Throughout the
day Evan told us exciting facts about Las Vegas, its origins and what makes it unique.
We also stopped by a gas station/convenience store to buy things and use the
bathroom.
When we finally arrived to our first hiking stop Zion National Park, Evan already
informed us of its creation and landscape and also of the water refill location,
museum and bathroom. He gave us our lunch which consisted of assorted sandwiches, chips and fruit and gave us about 3 hours to just hike, which we took
full advantage of and it was AMAZING!!! Be sure to take lots of pictures, rest and
drink water whenever needed. We followed the Emerald Trail which takes you on
top of a mountain and the end is a natural beach/lake. I immediately took my
sneakers off and walked into the water to cool off.
Afterwards, we drove for a while and began hiking in Bryce Canyon which was again
filled with amazing and unforgettable views. Please take your time and take a lot of
pictures!!! When we finished with Bryce Canyon we set off to our camp ground and
ate dinner. We had to pay for dinner, which was I believe $12. After we ate we
prepared for the cold night ahead as it was reported to be 40 degrees F. I came
prepared…I wore a sweater, fuzzy socks, pajama pants and stayed pretty warm
especially with the provided tent and sleeping bag.
Day 2:
Ate breakfast (cereal, muffins, peanut butter jelly sandwiches, fruit, chips, orange
juice, coffee)
Sirius music stations varied from acoustic rock to rock…basically slow jams.
We opted to do the Antelope Canyon trail and let me tell you it was worth the $50 I
spent. The views were AMAZING and your tour guide will know what angles work to
take the best picture so just give him/her the camera whenever they ask for it.
Lunch: Evan allowed us to make our own sandwiches: turkey, ham, different
cheeses, fruit, chips, bread. Amazing Tour – Amazing Guide!Read full review
This was definitely the highlight of our three weeks tour through the Southwest. Our tour guide Mike was extremely knowledgeable and helpful, the campgrounds also excellent, the route well chosen. We felt so privileged to see Antelope Canyo..n with just a couple of dozen people and to do the jeep tour in Monument Valley with a very moving Navajo experience. We will never forget it. The 3-day-tour is rather expensive for families with teens. Still worthwhile by any means!Read full review
The 7 day SW camping tour was amazing, well-planned! The guide Mike was thoughtful, efficient, flexible, friendly and an excellent planner. My teenage son and I tremendously enjoyed the tour he leaded. The scenery of every place we visited ..was overwhelming, beautiful and majestic. Bring good hiking boots (lots of hiking), water shoes, a hat with a string (wind from the cliff/canyons can blow away your hat), swimwear and some clothes pins. Pack light. Getting to know other passengers was another special part of the trip. I made good friends. It was the most memorable 7 days of my life. Thank you!! Read full review
Even though we chose the option to camp, my daughter, and my friend and I had a
blast. We made new friends. Everyone in our group was really friendly. Our tour
guide Bradley M. Was also very cool. Enthusiastic, funny, smart, and most of a..ll
approachable. I felt so smart by the time the tour was finished. Bradley shared a lot
of amazing information and stories that’s related to this tour. the second night, we
were lazy to pitch the tent so we decided, all three of us and another girl who was
traveling solo, to sleep in one tent!!!! That was more fun! It was so worth it.Read full review
Was well organized and done. Appreciate the driver and his patience. Highly recommend for people who want to visit Grand Canyon in 1 day.
We had lunch at the restaurant with the most amazing views of the canyon and skywalk. food is just ok.. but the prices are well worth the view and not outrageous by any means. I’d go again! The Guano stop was by far the most expansive view with great hiking opportunities
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
"Why we have this wonderful trip? We want to thank our driver John and the tour guide Danial, and they were just wonderful, we would like to compliment them on their courteous friendly personality for a wonderful time."
A solo traveller, I joined 11 travellers plus our guide for your 3-day Southwest tour.
From the start our guide, Jon, welcomed us with friendliness and care. Along the way, off and on, he kept us entertained with fascinating stories about t..he area. He's a true raconteur. From
Zion and Bryce day one, to Antelope Canyon and Monument Valley day two and Grand Canyon day three, there were regular comfort stops along the way to stretch our legs and get some snacks. While many in the van chose the camping option, I chose the lodging option and rooms were good quality. Jon is a qualified and experienced guide who ensured we all had the right information about optional short hikes, stops and meeting points. He quietly kept us all to schedule so we arrived at each destination at the right time. The two highlights for me were Antelope Canyon and Monument Valley, although all destinations inspired awe. I also enjoyed the camaraderie between travellers in the van.

I recommend this trip. It was great, and tour guide IVAN was very kind. Even Toursforfun's customer service was very helpful, since I decided and booked at the last minute but everything worked out!

Wonderful 3 day national parks tour from Las Vegas - excellent value. Highly recommend We wanted to book the 7 day national parks tour and it was full, so we booked the 3 day tour instead and it was fantastic from start to finish. The itine..rary is packed, make no mistake about that, but our guide know about tours and what works. There was never a dull moment and we traveled with two other families and a couple, 13 of us in all, lovely people from around the world. Our guide was Brad, a 40 something well traveled, quirky, funny, friendly guy who knows his stuff and shares as much or as little as you want. He has great life stories to share, too. The route was well planned. The locations, stops and everything were excellent. All the recommended walks/ trail routes were perfect. Our routing was scenic throughout, departing from Las Vegas to Zion (via Glen Canyon/Dam), Bryce Canyon, Monument Valley and Grand Canyon, also stopping along Route 66. We added on the optional Antelope Canyon which was mesmerising, plus a 25 minute helicopter ride over the Grand Canyon, which was fabulous. The vehicle, tents, sleeping bags and equipment were in excellent condition. The tents were new and easy to put up/pack up. Sleeping bags / sleep sheets were spotlessly clean and in excellent condition. Very clean hot shower and toilet/washing facilities. Camping locations were perfect (the second night with a clear view of Monument Valley for sunset and sunrise). The trip stops were all amazing and wonderful each in their own way and it’s not possible to say one is better than the other! We highly recommend this trip and Brad.Read full review
