We had an absolutely wonderful time with Jon. Not only did he take us to
many spectacular places he also knew about the local community and had a lot of fun stuff to
tell. We can only recommend this three days tour. We got much more than ex..pected.Read full review
Bindlestiffs 3 Day National Park Tour was one of the best experiences during our four week trip to North America! Especially because of our awesome guide Jon, who has a incredible knowledge. He told the group a lot of interesting stories ab..out his country and personal experiences. Even on longer bus rides it never got boring with him.
We loved the unique nature and spending time in the National Parks. The tour was organized very well.Though we only had three days, the time was filled with one of a kind experiences. In most of the parks we had two to three hours to discover the area by ourselves. The optional tour in Antelope Canyon was lead by a local guide and lasted about an hour. In Monument Valley a fun and informative Jeep-Tour with a local Navajo guide was included. After that we had a traditional dinner at a Navajo family's home which
was one of my favorite stops because we got a chance to see how some of the locals live.
During this tour my sister and I slept in a tent for the first time. I needed some time to get used to it (I slept better the second night :D) but it was totally worth it! The view from the campground in Monument Valley was just breathtaking! The supplied tents were spacious and easy to put up, the campgrounds and washing facilities were clean.
I can highly recommend this tour and wish I could do it again someday!

This trip was exceptionally great. One to put on your bucket list.
Mike, our guide was particularly professional in the way he communicated
with the group including 3 teenagers.
His manner was easy going yet he got all information across to.. us with any
silly jokes but yet was humorous. No loud shouting or load music.
Just perfect in my sons and my opinion.Read full review
I am happy to express my gratitude for the wonderful 3 day tour I did
with my two children (10 and 14). We had a great adventure through the most fascinating
National Parks.
Our tour guide, Evan, was amazing. He has an incredible knowledge ..of history, geography and
he made the driving parts interesting and fun.
The whole organization was perfect. Driving, stops, picnics, time at the parks.... We were a
group of 12 and Evan made us all feel comfortable and welcome. He was always helpful, polite,
kind even after a long and tiring day.
The camping was great, the equipment perfectly fine, in good condition.
Thank you, Evan for creating a memorable and beautiful experience.Read full review

It was first camping in my life and could be the best! Every day and everything is well arranged.
Mike Brown makes me realize how crucial the role of a tour guide is. Unlike other tour guides
before, Mike is very organized and patient. He d..rives all the way without any words like tired or
unhappy. He is a good leader to the team, a very helpful friend on the way, a nice driver aware
everyone's safety, and last but not the least, he is an excellent storyteller, very informative. All
that makes me a kind of enjoy in the van, although felt nauseous because of too busy with our
schedule every minute. Mike shared stories about American Indian, the Hoover Dam, Vegas
and the Historical Route 66 when we are driving through. There were surprises everyday, every
place was different. By the way, the meals are good with many choices, and water are provided
sufficiently every dayRead full review
It was an incredible journey. We visited Monument Valley, Zion, Bryce, Grand Canyon and Antelope Canyon. The guide Chris Patrick was a genius, super attentive and helped us in everything we needed. Very polite and with a lot to tell about e..ach place. Because there are many Chris Patrick is worth clarifying that I speak of "The real Chris Patrick". Very good quality and price ratio. It is a tour that should be done if you are in Las Vegas--Read full review
This trip was planned to perfection and I am still amazed how much of the canyonlands we saw
in three days. Zion and Bryce were stunning, Antelope Canyon was just surreal and Monument
Valley and Grand Canyon were awesome. An absolute bonus ..was the jeep tour across the
Navajo Reservation and the unexpected evening meal at the home of a very hospitable Navajo
Indian family.
Our driver and guide,Jon, was superb. From the moment we left Las Vegas he entertained us
with his wealth of factual information and his personal anecdotes. Good timing was essential
with so much to see in such a short time and Jon managed this to perfection with ample time to
see the sights and take advantage of the comfort breaks en route.
My wife and I ,being senior citizens, chose the overnight lodge option rather than the camping
and our accommodation on both nights was comfortable and acceptable.
Overall this small group tour enabled us to experience a great deal in a short space of time in
good company and with a very professional tour guideRead full review
This 7 day trip from Vegas through all those National Parks and Monuments in the Southwest
was amazing. Our guide Jon was very knowledgeable about the area as he did wilderness trips
in the area before becoming a tour guide.
The drives thro..ugh this incredible sceneries never felt long and the trip despite being only 7
days long didn't feel rushed at all (but not saying you couldn't spend months in this area).
I definitely enjoyed every bit of this trip: our diverse group, the peaceful campsites and
camping-spirit, the early rising for amazing hikes, the things learnt and the passion shown from
our tour guide, and of course the incredible places visited.
This was definitely my 1 year US highlight so far and I am looking forward for other tours! 110% recommendation!Read full review
3 days and 2 nights.
This was the most amazing tour I have ever done.
Organisation was fantastic.
The places we saw were incredible- with side tours and dinners added on just made the trip.
Our guide Marie was awesome- so knowledgeable, pro..fessional, organised, safe and lots of
fun.
I’m going to send my parents on this tour.
I’d even do it a second time myself!
Loved every moment of it.
Thank you.Read full review
I strongly concur with the other reviewers who did this incredible tour. Our tour guide Mike
Brown was excellent - very knowledgeable, friendly and an excellent driver. He took a laid back
approach which we appreciated. The whole tour was w..ell organised and we had frequent stops
on the way. Being retirees we opted to stay in hotels rather than camping and both were good
with excellent dining options and shops. We enjoyed meeting some lovely young people from all
over the world.
Lunch on the first day was quite basic but was much better on the next two days when we had a
huge array of cold meats, salad, dips, fresh fruit and bread to select from.
We really enjoyed our hike along the river in Zion Canyon and Bryce Canyon was truly stunning.
Antelope Canyon was a magical experience and our young Navajo guide was good at helping
us to get the best shots. We also enjoyed our Navajo guided tour to Monument Valley. Our
guide was warm and friendly and told us interesting stories about her family and her people. We
also enjoyed our unexpected stop at Horseshoe Bend although the trek to see it was quite
difficult in the extreme heat. We loved seeing the amazing Grand Canyon and doing the 5 km
walk along the rim. Our 25 min helicopter trip over the Grand Canyon was just incredible. It
really was the highlight of our whole 5 week trip to North America.
On our way back to Las Vegas we had a fun stop at a quirky cafe on historic Route 66 at
Seligman, Arizona called Delgadillo's Snow Cap. We enjoyed a delicious strawberry malted milk
and french fries. This family business was established in 1953 and is still going strong.
I highly recommend this tour. Each day is very full so you need to be prepared for that. You
need a reasonable level of fitness to do the walks although easier options are always given and
there is of a hotel version available.Read full review

This trip was a fabulous experience for both my son and me. We saw just about everything we
would want to see in the Southwest in one week but despite the quick pace we never felt
rushed. The hiking was truly memorable and the parks were st..unning. Our wonderful guide, Jon
Maret, was knowledgeable, funny and relaxed. He was extremely kind to my 15 year-old son
and helped him with a photography project. In addition to all of Jon’s amusing stories about the
region, I particularly enjoyed visiting the Navajo Nation and joining a local family for dinner. I'm a
56 year old woman who has never traveled as part of a tour, nor camped out. Needless to say, I
was a little apprehensive about both of these things. Much to my delight, our group of 14 got
along very well and camping was fun and easy. Several of the campgrounds we stayed in were
lovely. The food was filling and tasty – quite an accomplishment considering Jon was cooking
for 14 on a camp stove! For the price, this tour was a great value. My son is already looking
forward to next summer when we’d like to visit the RockiesRead full review
