to be honest, my family and I had never experienced such a great bus tour before. I’m nothing but thankful for all the team for making the tour absolutely amazing to us. The best part of this bus tour that I experience is that It has so many great stops, mentioning the Yosemite Park and San Francisco City Tour that was quite fascinating. On the other hand, our bus guiding host couldn’t be more intelligent, friendly and helpful. Thanks for providing us the great hotels in the area. I’d definitely recommend everyone to take the time out from the Stratosphere Hotel and visit the observation deck they got there. Good days!

As many others in the world I also wished to visit this great the U.S. The best part of it was that on this tour we had an opportunity to see the world’s important places comfortably and I am very happy that I could see them all without any trouble.

Never been fond of taking the journeys on a bus full of people, but the journey, after all, was worth it, not because of the people but because of the great places we got to explore. My husband and kids totally had a great in Las Vegas and especially in San Francisco. I was hoping that we could spend more days on the bus tour but it had to end after the course of a week. Stratosphere Las Vegas was a fine luxury hotel. Loved the Yosemite National Park Tour and the Grand Canyon South Region Tour. Great efforts by a tour operator in leading the tour at the Grand Canyon and the Antelope Canyon region, we couldn’t have had toured the way they led us to. Wonderful Experience Overall.

The tour was well planned by me and I wanted to visit these places. I was thrilled to see places and stay in the accommodation provided. The guide also was helpful and did the best he could do to see the passengers are safe and served well. My dissatisfaction was on the last day as I contracted severe headache and could not enjoy much.
