OMG!!! This was an awesome trip! Transportation was comfortable, gear was great quality and the scheduling was well paced. Our tour leader, Mike Brown, was relaxed, professional, provided a wealth of information, and ensured we bonded well ..as a group.
The tour was thorough, outrageously beautiful and well planned. Not to be missed if you love camping but don't have your gear with you. Brilliant!Read full review
Absolutely amazing scenery in the Bryce, Zion, Antelope & Grand canyons. Each one was unique.This tour also included Monument Valley in Navajo territory with a meal in a traditional Navajo home. Jenni, our driver / guide is very experienced.. & kept to a tight schedule which enabled us ( 14 adults) to experience so much.We even drove on Route 66 on the 3rd day, which was another highlight. Overall, we drove 1000 miles on good roads. I highly recommend this tour.Read full review

The schedule is tight, but it is SO great!! The tour guide was so well organized and enthusiastic, it was such a great experience. If you are thinking about camping or lodging, you can absolutely go for camping cause the tents offer more th..an enough space for 2 and the campgrounds are really good.Read full review
It should be marketed as a National Parks sampler tour. What you see is great, just not enough time at any one place given vast area. Lots of travel time and a couple of hours in any one park is just not enough time. Don't get me wrong it i..s still worth the money though unless you were going to outfit yourself and drive yourself.Read full review
This is by far the best tour i have ever taken (and i have taken many). As soon as we booked we received an instant tour confirmation with FAQ's, packing, list, what to expect etc. We had some questions and our emails ere responded to with ..amazing promptness. I recommend this tour anyone and everyone and will be doing so! We visited so many awesome parks in 3 days yet had plenty of time to explore each and every one and never not once felt rushed. Food is really good- BBQ on night one and a traditional Navajo Taco meal on night two. The view to wake up to from your tent on day 3 is out of this world. Great guides, great tour great company.Read full review
We (couple) went on the 7 day camping tour - Southwest Highlights. Our tour guide Joel was very informative and answered every question we asked. He went out of his way to make the experience memorable. This tour is excellent value for anyo..ne who enjoys getting into the great outdoors. The small group size (we had 13) means you get a feeling of a personal tour. 7 days flys by very quickly as the tour ensures you get to experience as much as the south west has to offer. Highlights: Antelope Canyon and sunrise at Monument Valley.Read full review
We booked a private 2D1N tour of horseshoe and lower antelope canyon in Sept 2017. Didn't know what to expect but was totally impressed by our driver cum guide - JON.
His knowledge of the terrain, culture, and entertaining style made the.. arduous long drive so bearable and fun! Jon was very particular about safety, especially when we were so excited about the magnificent views of horseshoe bends.
He made sure we were safe while busy snapping photos away. Jon was well equipped when we needed jackets and charger, In the most timely way!
The highlight of the trip was walking the lower antelope canyon. We had a wonderful Navajo guide who had so much knowledge about the canyon.
Overall we like to say this is an item off our bucket list.Read full review
This is a wonderful tour, taking you to unbelievable places. Friendly, well organized and expertly guided. Everything fits perfectly. Each of the three days was packed with amazing scenery. Mini bus is comfortable, lunches are provided and ..the optional evening meals are memorable experiences as well. We have enjoyed loads of fantastic holidays and this was a match for any of them.Read full review
This was three days that I won't forget, we had Mike as our guide and everything else as he was very informative, helpful and friendly.
Everyday we had new sights and natural wonders to see whether it was Zion NP and Bryce Canyon NP on day.. one, Antelope Canyon and Monument Valley on day two and the Grand Canyon on day 3.
Everything was very well run and the camping facilities from the tents to the shower/toilet facilities were top notch.
Thanks to Mike and the people I shared this experience with for an unforgettable three days.Read full review
I cannot fault any aspect of our incredible 3 days on the tour ( August 7th - 10th ), except to say it ended all too soon. I expected our tour guide Jon to be knowledgeable, but he was so much more than that. Full of wit, fun and good humou..r he had so many great stories and insights that time in the van was a pleasure and added to the whole experience. We were a real mixed group of 12, small family groups and couples, with not much idea between us on tent pitching, but somehow Jon kept us on track and to schedule.
Any superlatives about locations and what we saw have been used in other reviews and I agree with it all. Having started as strangers we ended as friends and for me the highlight was camping in Monument Valley. I still can't quite believe my own photos!
Great guide, great tour, worth every penny..Read full review
We did the 3-day trip from Las Vegas and visited Zion National Park, Bryce Canyon, Antelope Canyon, Monument Valley and the Grand Canyon. Our tour guide, Joel was exceptionally knowledgeable and the whole experience was unforgettable. Thank.. you, we will certainly travel with Binddlestiff again.Read full review
This 7 day trip (August 6th-13th) in the Southwest canyons was simply amazing. It was our first experience camping and it will definitely not be the last! The landscapes that surrounded us during our hikes were breathtaking. We often got to.. see the sun set behind the mountains, displaying a fantastic range of colors.
Among my numerous favorite moments: the time Joel -our guide- took us to Dead horse point where we watched the night fall from a ledge overlooking the vast landscape before us, while listening to him reading some extracts from one of his favorite books, capturing the quiet but captivating beauty of the desert.
Another highlight would be the hike in the middle of the hoodoos in Bryce canyon: the warm orange colors are really unique. But every other place was spectacular as well: admiring Zion canyon from a high viewpoint at Angel’s landing was totally worth the climbing! We also got to see a few massive arches in Canyonlands, not to mention the impressive landscape in Monument Valley. I especially appreciated the hospitality of the Navajo family who welcomed us into their home to enjoy a traditional taco, while learning more about their culture.
I would also recommend the optional activities: Antelope canyon is the ideal place to take artistic pictures; the Hummer tour is awesome for those who like the thrill of a bumpy ride and the helicopter tour allows you to fully realize and admire the majesty of the Grand Canyon.
I really want to thank Joel who turned this amazing trip into an unforgettable experience, with his usual good humor. He shared his passion for the desert and the canyons as well as his knowledge of the region in history and geology, which was much appreciated during the car rides. I particularly enjoyed the night when we sat around a campfire, listening to him singing old songs while playing the guitar…
Everyone in the group was very friendly and our week was full of memorable moments.
I would highly recommend this tour with Bindlestiff and I myself sincerely wish to discover another part of the US with this wonderful company!

My son (10 years old) and I had such an amazing experience on our tour. Everything exceeded my expectations. Our tour guide, Jennie, was wonderful. We really could not have had a better time, thanks to her. The scenery is breathtaking, the ..tour was comfortable and fun. Jennie was so knowledgeable about the areas we drove through and explained the geology and the historical aspects of everything. After this experience, I am seriously considering booking the 7 day Canadian Rockies tour for next summer. Thanks again!Read full review
