I recently took the three-day Canyon-lands tour, which started and ended in Las Vegas. It is a whirlwind, as you cover 1,100 miles in the three-days, so if you’re not up to a fast pace this isn’t the tour for you, but I truly had a blas..t. We visited Zion and Bryce National Parks the first day, which were breathtaking. The next day we went to Antelope Canyon, which is just mind-blowing and can only be visited with a Navajo Guide, which was all arranged. Then on to Monument Valley where many of the old Westerns were filmed, again with a Navajo Guide. We even had dinner at a Navajo home and were treated to Navajo tacos (on flatbread). The final day is the Grand Canyon, which made me feel very, very small and took my breath away. I opted for the helicopter flight over the canyon, which was totally worth it. With my 11 new friends, we hiked, ate, laughed and just had a great time thanks to our trusty guide Marie, who is absolutely wonderful. She kept us all going and truly knew the history of the area. She was also an excellent driver of the very nice, new van we were in. I would highly recommend it.Read full review
Bus is very old and plastic pieces from the roof falling apart. Also, why offer the subway lunch if guide is going to sell the chinese buffet option? Your description should state that the tour will stop at a plaza where there are plenty of.. restaurants not just subway.Read full review
From the guide being so well organized to the included food options, everything was so wonderfully prepared. It was my first real multiday camping in the southwest. The equipment and food were quality and the campsites were more than accomm..odating. We were promised a fast-paced and fun trip and Marie definitely did not disappoint. She was so knowledgeable about her American History and geology and even about the religious aspects of the toured sites. The hikes were moderately challenging but had options to go a little easier. Definitely shouldnt be too delicate on this trip as its dusty and dirty and you will help with the gear. All around amazing experience and thankful to have booked with them!Read full review
We chose the camping option and we are so glad we did. Tents were easy to set up and everyone helped with camp setup and take down. You just got to know everyone better sitting around the campfire , sharing stories. A few nights got rather ..cold and Marie was on top of getting us other sleeping options for our comfort. Tour bus was comfortable for the 13 of us and Marie was an exceptional driver especially with cargo trailer in tow. She was full of info for each spot we headed to . All destinations were beautiful and had the wow factor . You could choose the level or amount of hiking you wished to do and had more than enough time at each spot. Definitely some early mornings and very busy days so if your into sleeping in and lounging around maybe not the best choice for you. This is one of the best tours we've ever done and would recommend them to our friends. The destinations, our guide Marie and our 11 new friends made it a trip to rememberRead full review
This Lower Antelope Canyon trip is a wonderful tour in my life! It is worth the money! The tour price is great value for all the sights. Thank you for your service.
Every place we went to was breath-taking. Amongst my favorite moments was hiking through Antelope Canyon. Jeeping through Monument Valley and learning all about this Native American land. The Grand Canyon took my breath away. And the Route ..66 drive back to Vegas was awesome, and so much fun. Must be said though that our tour guide and minibus driver, Brad, had a lot to do with the tour being amazing. He gave so much of himself, gave us heaps of interesting info about all the places, and was a great bloke and amazing American. Thank you Brad!Read full review
We had a great time during these three days, the tour is very well organized. The guide of a great kindness made us discovered very beautiful landscapes. The circuit allows to discover several parks in 3 days. At each stage we had the choic..e between several hikes. The camping option allows you to immerse yourself even more. The only negative point will be the quality of the food. (the first night we are sold a barbecue but it is not at all the case)Read full review
I did the 7 days Southwest Highlights trip (camping) back in early October 2019 and had the best time! I normally would just rate a company without leaving additional comments, but with them I almost feel urged to do so as the level of pers..onal attention, professionalism & overall fun during the tour really made the difference for me. I think it’s safe to say they are among the best, if not the best, excursion experiences I’ve ever had! Would definitely recommend them and will surely look them up again for a next trip to the US myself! Our guide, Marie, was all you’d expect in a tour guide, but unfortunately rarely get; enthusiastic, passionate about all the sights we’ve seen, she gave plenty of personal attention, she was part of the team and not ‘only’ a tour guide, she was respectful & told us lots of interesting stories & bits on all sights and things along the way. Whenever I had a question, she had an answer. Our tour being the last one before winter season, a cold front headed towards the camping sites in the last 2 days of our tour, and Marie felt more than responsible to upgrade us to hotel rooms & constantly checked on us and our needs. She arranged it and kept us constantly up to date on all developments, this is where she really made the difference for me. Camping grounds & services are of good level, most of them have complimentary Wi-Fi, plenty of charging points & good restroom facilities. The vehicle in which we made this trip was comfortable, has good air conditioning, several charging points for electronic devices, so we’d always arrive full of energy at the next destination. Based on each destination, a specific playlist was played on the radio to completely indulge you into the moment of seeing and experiencing a destination for the first time. To me, this showed eye for detail & helped in creating the best memories possible of all these places. The itinerary itself is simply great. A lot of things are covered in one week & leaves time for some relaxation, mostly in the evenings, as well. Multiple options for the day -varying on e.g. intensity of a hike, either hiking or visiting a town- are given as option to you upfront, so you can just go ahead and pick whichever you like most or plan a ‘day off’ from hiking if you’re in need of some rest. For me, my only (really minor) issue with the itinerary was that I really liked the delicious picnic style diner at Dead Horse Viewpoint, but it sort of had an overlap with Canyonlands the next day in terms of views on the scenery. Just Dead Horse Viewpoint would’ve been enough for me, but this is personal, and the next guy might completely disagree with me here. The rest of the itinerary is perfectly planned, and my best memories remain the carefully planned sunset moments – Every night, we were exactly at the right place when the sun was about to set. Great photo opportunities as well! Biggest highlights for me were Bryce Canyon, Zion National Park & Monument Valley. Especially the hike in Bryce Canyon is one of a kind! Thanks, ToursFun, for this wonderful experience. I just feel my Southwest USA experience, a bucket list trip for almost 30 years, would not have been the same when booked through another tour provider, and that’s exactly the feeling I hope to conclude any tour with.Read full review
Time efficient but not enough commentary and information from tour guide about the places we were going to see. We went through
A beautiful canyon with interesting rock formations that I was very curious about. Would have liked the option ..to do both canyon tours. Also, Guide has to remind guests to avoid the edge of the horseshoe bend lookout, stay on the trail, and pick up their trash. Basically more instruction on how to be respectful towards natureRead full review
Thanks for making this memorable trip possible! Antelope Canyon was spectacular! The excursion to Horseshoe bend was an added bonus and a beautiful sight as well. Driving a rental car to the reservation would have been exhausting and to..o ambitious for a day trip. Tours4fun enabled our family to enjoy the scenery together without the distraction and hassle of driving ourselves. The tour went exactly as described. We were contacted by our tour guide the evening before the tour. Our guide Henry was extremely engaging and knowledgeable. He responded promptly when contacted with questions and concerns prior to the trip. Our trip began on time and stayed on schedule throughout the day. The bus was comfortable and the large windows made it easier to enjoy the scenery. I would advise those taking the tour to bring along some cash for tips to the driver and guides . They worked hard to ensure we arrived safe and had an enjoyable experience. I can’t recommend this tour enough!
