100% rating for this tour! Everything was up to the mark. The lunch and transportation were appropriate, and there was no compromise on quality of this tour. It is very economical tour since it includes lunch and admission ticket as well. This tour offered me a perfect break from my hectic daily routine. I also took a helicopter ride, and I suggest everyone to take the helicopter ride if you really want to enjoy this trip! Thumbs up! And yes the customer service of Golden Bus Tours is top notch. I will running late and they helped me in coordinating with the tour guide.

I had been on this tour for a visit from Las Vegas to Grand Canyon and this tour by itself was self sufficient. This was a beautiful drive and I did not move my eyes from the window right from Vegas. It was so beautiful, the scenic views were captivating. The disappointing part was most passengers were fast asleep and they were missing a lot of beautiful things passing on the way. The Grand Canyon proves its name and is worth seeing, it is awesome and the most amazing part is the Skywalk that no one should miss this in their life time.

I am giving 3 stars as the worst part is on reaching the park, the entry ticket queue is a big line and after spending some money and time in the Western Village, we reached the Skywalk. It was an amazing place, but as there were other busses passengers also crowding the place, we had to wait a lot to get to that place. Besides, our cell phones, camera were not permitted inside and so to get pictures we had to wait for the person who was permitted by park. Of course the views were superb, but there were a lot of nuisance factors.

I wanted to book this tour a week back, but the seats were always full. I had some issues in finding the appropriate booking date, but enjoyed the trip as a whole. It was well planned, well managed, and we also got back on time, unlike many other companies who are usually late.

I love to take photographs and it was disappointing here as Jack did not take good photos. After waiting for all the hours, the photos were bad. He kept us facing the sun and so my photos came with my eyes shut. I hate that. Now, I cannot update my posting with such photos. The Guano Point had beautiful views and luckily an old guy did a good job with photos. Thank god, I have some quality photos to post and say I had been to such amazing places. Yet, it was really crowded and would have been nice to enjoy with lesser crowd.

The Skywalk, the west entrance was near to Vega taking only 2 hours drive and the views are superb. Our guide was very helpful and suggested we consider taking to the Skywalk, the most beautiful places and to get the without a meal fee option. This is because the without meal option allows you to eat that you want and in your choice of place. You have the liberty to have food and enjoy your meal at lesser price. Luckily, we arrived early and could visit all the sites and fortunately, the photographer took good pictures of us, though all others were not happy.
