I am a student a fresher and am on this tour to see few places. I want to take photos and post in on social sites for my friends to see that I had been here. The guide was good and well informed. He took most of my photos and did a great job. I liked the accommodation allotted to me and the Outlet Mall. I bought few gifts for myself and my family members. The Las Vegas is always lively, the Yosemite Falls, the Mirage, Luxor Las Vegas and its casino visit gave me a chance to see a casino.

One thing I like the most about this six days journey to a number of locations was that the tour was very well organized, it sure really was. We fully enjoyed at Grand Canyon and Lake Powell, it was breathtaking. I’ve never visited Zion National Park and on this six-day tour we had a wonderful journey to it. The Linq Hotel in Vegas was marvelous including all the others as well. Such a wonderful tour of six days, Thank you so much.

We went all as a family, me, my husband, my MIL, and his sister. The bus tour was great and we give 5 stars. The accommodation was good and I liked the places we visited. In fact, it was good because our guide gave us all the right information and our driver drove very carefully. In fact after most visits, we slept away in the bus as though it was our room and the bus ride was so smooth that we enjoyed every bit of this travel. The tour experience was great and my MIL also accepted this to be a perfect tour.

I thought to myself when I bought the tickets that we are going to so many places on a bus and that bus better be comfortable, and they were luxurious and comfortable. My wife and I had a lovely experience on this tour especially at the Lake Powell, Hearst castle and of course at Grand Canyon. We stayed in great hotels. I really wanted to visit Yosemite National Park, though; it was only in the deal of summer season. Good one!
Aradhya
Excellent tour. Amazing guide and driver and all the places mentioned in the schedule were visited in this tour of 6 days. Actually, the bus experienced some sort of problem, but the guide and the driver did not reveal any discomfort and managed us to reach to our places of attraction without any delay. Once we got out of the bus, they immediately sought a mechanic and got things sorted out. The trip was memorable, but it was disappointing that they did not take care of these details before starting the tour. However, the Falls, the Outlet Mall, the Virgin River, were breathtaking.
