JOHN
From the day one, the tour was perfect, my wife and I had the time of our lives. Our favorite pick would be the Las Vegas strip and the Zion National Park. Hotels accommodated by the company were also nice, no complains. Thumbs up
QING YUAN
The tour was fabulous and they followed the schedule mentioned. This was an affordable tour and they did not extort money unnecessarily. I have a strong belief that this was one of my best long tours that I was out for 4 days and the places were memorable. All were beautiful in its own way and they were commendable. I liked the beauty of each Gran Canyon and also the horseshoe bend, what a beauty. I tried peeping to see, but my guide did not permit me from bending too much. All is well and it ended well. I give 5 stars
NUWA
A nice 4 days tour taking you to see cactus gardens, that was the rarest and then we saw the most talked upon sight the horseshoe bend, it was a perfect 360 degree bend. It was nice to see the Grand Canyon, that was also a unique place to visit and the national park was matchless. It is nice to travel safely in the bus, without any hindrance. They take care of all the aspects, but I was not happy with the accommodation part, it was very much average stay and could have certainly been much better. I give 4 stars
EVA
4 days stay away from my regular routine like it was great thing coming my way. I wanted to move out from the regular schedule and now it is done. I went on this tour, the cactus garden was splendid. Actually, this was the first time I was seeing cactus through naked eyes. Usually, I saw only in pictures and also like the horseshoe bend, the Grand Canyon. Everything was nice and is meant to see for locals and visitors. It was worth investing on this tour, but I felt boring as I was all alone.
DARLINE
There were lots to see in this tour and I did not know that in the cactus gardens it meant to see a lot and walking through. As I had hurt my foot recently, I could not do the walking and had to take a back seat. That was boring. It would have been nice had there been some other arrangement so that I did not miss any of these, but unfortunately, nothing was available and I was given no assistance, but for sitting idle. It is best if some other facility is done and I also see the cactus gardens.
CHRIS
Tour arranged by this agency was great but personally, I had issues while on it, the tour was too long, the constant riding, sitting in a costar, crossing states every time we have to visit a new place. I’m a 60+ year old man, this tour is not cut out for me, but young souls will surely enjoy this tour.
