Ritesh
I liked the tour for 6 days and I went on this tour all alone as I had enough holidays on store. I do not take leaves from office and had to take a break that I opted this tour. The tour guide gave more than enough answers, but his English was hard to take for me. I literally had to ponder over what he said and that was a bit disappointing. As he was on the fatter side, he was also slow and his talking also went like a rough bubble. But he was a nice man. I have no regrets.
Ignacio
Hi. I took this bus tour in August, and I would like to add few things to it according to my experience. Lee Our tour guide and driver Luke were Excellent. First day the bus had some problem, even then they managed very well. The journey went really fantastic, I want to spend more time in Zion National park but can’t manage as we have to leave for Las Vegas. I am great lover of good food and on this trip, I enjoyed the best cuisine. Thanks for reserving such decent hotels.
Hari Parsad
We had planned this well in advance and had our booking reserved. We had not visited any of these places and were keen to go as a family now. It was all fun and the places we had stayed overnight were good, no room for complaints or disappointments. The guide took good care of the entire group and answered all our queries. He had a detailed knowledge and supported us with enough answers and a broad smile. I do not know how he managed to always stay with smiles. Anyhow, the bus tour was great and fantastic. I give 5 stars.
Cyrano
The trip wasenjoyable, They took us to all the places mentioned in the itinerary, well trained guides and drivers make this tour fear free . We covered lot of places which cannot be completed in car. We were already much drained but we couldn’t miss the night tour of Las Vegas and it was our good decision. I must suggest you to make your plan through this bus tour service. 6 days are well spent missing those Good days…
