Joseph was an amazing tour guide for my trip to Zion, Bryce Canyon, Monument Valley, and Grand Canyon. You can feel his passion for traveling because of how special he made this trip for my group. He’s a really awesome dude that isn’t i..n it for the money, and he has inspired me to travel the world. Thank you Joseph!Read full review
I enjoyed every minute of this fast paced trip that goes to Zion, Bryce Canyon, Antelope Canyon, Monument Valley and the Grand Canyon. Our guide, Jill, was incredibly knowledgeable about the areas we were traveling. She was very organized a..nd kept everyone on track so we were able to see everything. It was a group of many different ages and abilities and she managed to make sure everyone was enjoying themselves. We opted for the hotel lodging instead of camping, but we did spend time at the campgrounds and they seemed clean and in good locations. I have taken many group tours before and I can say that Jill was amongst the best of my guides.
I also had several chances to interact with Becky and Cindy before the tour and found them to be very responsive. I had some flight issues that caused me to almost miss the tour and they were kind and sympathetic to my situation.
I would not hesitate to recommend this tour company to people of all ages. This particular tour was fast paced so be prepared for that if you sign up. However, I can assure you that you will not be disappointed in the destinations included on this tour.Read full review
This is actually a review of the Western USA National Parks Loop tour. I can't tell you how impressed I was both with the sites we saw along the way (i.e., Zion, Bryce, Lake Powell, Monument Valley, and the Grand Canyon) and the excellence ..of our guide Indy.
Imagine if Santa Claus lost a few pounds and decided to make a career change. That's Indy. He was always upbeat and always interesting, taking care to interact with every passenger and dealing with changing circumstances with aplomb. When it rained, Indy was quick to come up with Plan B, and if that didn't work out Plan C or D. He was always able to pivot and salvage a bad situation, making it look easy. He did all of this while juggling a demanding schedule, driving, and giving us plenty of extras along the way. Indy genuinely enjoys people, and it really comes across in the way that he treats his passengers.
I always felt safe when Indy was driving or leading a hike. He would make sure that the person trailing at the end of the group (usually me!) was looked after, either by waiting at a fork in the trail to make sure that no one missed the right turnoff or hanging back to be the "sweeper." Not all tour leaders do this, but the good ones do - and it makes a big difference.
Indy was very engaging and made everyone feel welcome. I feel incredibly luck to have had him as my tour leader.Read full review
We had a fantastic 7 day trip to Yellowstone, Grand Tetons & Bryce. Our guide was informative and super friendly. The campsites had great views and overall, the trip was spectacular! Highly recommend!
Really breath-taking scenery. Our tour guide, Chris, is awesome as well. He took very good care us and made sure we were enjoying the tour to its fullest. Chris is a quality guide with lots of info. If you get him, you're lucky.
This tour was perfect for our family - including our 2 adult kids (age 23 & 25). The group size is
good - no more than 14. Our guide Chris really made the trip ideal. He
was entertaining, knowledgeable, and courteous. He went out of his w..ay
to make sure each guest was enjoying the experience. Our one afternoon
of free time he spent driving up and down main street in Moab offering
to pick up and drop off guests since the heat was so intense. He always
was there when you needed him! We used the hotel option and were happy
with the accommodations. We never had to deal with check in or check
out. The luggage was already in the room when we arrived at each
location. The extra options are worth it. We went on the Hummer ride in
Moab and a helicopter ride over the Grand Canyon. Both were exceptional.
Due to Covid some events had to be shuffled but we never had to deal
with any problems - Chris took care of everything. We would definitely
recommend the tour and hope to go on another tour in the
future!Read full review

I just recently completed the 3 day National Parks tour with Chelsea as our tour guide.
I just wanted to reach out here and let you guys know how much of a fantastic job she did. This trip was truly one of the best experiences of my life.
..
I met some great people on the tour, but most importantly, Chelsea clearly loved teaching us, showing us around, and sharing her overall knowledge of the parks. Everything was greatly organized and the transitions between parks were seamless.
My expectations were exceeded ten-fold.
Just thought I'd reach out and give my feedback because I know how useful it can be. And thanks again to Chelsea for such a fantastic time!Read full review
This is one of the best trips I have ever done! It was packed full of experiences and a wealth of knowledge, all due to our FANTASTIC tour guide, Chelsea! She was personable, kind, and patient as there was several different levels of abilit..ies on the trip. She didn't hesitate to say she didn't have an answer but quickly got an answer. She made the trip (other than the beautiful parks!)!!Read full review
We a group of 4 friends and just returned from a great national parks tour. We were looking for something self drive and covid friendly l. We booked last minute with Bindlestiff. The tour was seamless from start to finish. We took the 3 day.. version to Zion, Bryce, Horseshoe Bend, Monument Valley and the Grand Canyon from Las Vegas. We chose the camping option and were blown away by our tour! There was a long drive on day 3 but we opted to extend in the Grand Canyon to make it 4 days. A great suggestion - thank you Bindlestiff! We were one of 3 groups self driving this tour and were met at each national park by our expert guide for optional walks and talks. It was so easy. We could opt in or out of whatever we wanted. Our guide met us each night to set up camp and we had some great campfires and star gazing. One family opted to stay in hotels but joined us both nights for the campfire. We received all of our route planning and the whole tour was very easy. Camping equipment was top notch and our guide was 5 star! We will be back for sure to take more tours in the future. Highly recommended!
