"This is without a doubt the best tour I have ever been on. Our guide Joe was great, he was chatty, it wasn't ever awkward and he was really knowledgeable about the places we were visiting. He was able to advise us on any questions we had a..nd was very approachable. This is a jam-packed trip and suitable if you're limited for time. You spend a couple of hours at each national park so look at the 7 day version of this trip they offer if you would rather have longer at all the places. We were only in the states for a week so this was perfect. We started with a pick-up point outside the back of the Stratosphere Hotel - which is good as it means you don't have to spend time picking up every traveller from their individual hotels. There were 12 of us is in our mini van and a nice variety of nationalities. You spend nearly all your time with everyone so the social side is a huge bonus. We set out to Zion National park - which is breathtaking. You can hike to see the Emerald Pools on this trip. It's worth noting you don't have a guide for all the parts of the tour - but you're provided with maps and advice regarding the best routes. This is perfect for us as sometimes we wanted time alone to explore. You can obviously choose these parts to do solo or with the other travellers in your group. We then went to Bryce canon from here which was again stunning. The landscapes just get increasingly more and more beautiful. The highlight for me was camping on the rim in Monument Valley. You are literally facing the beautiful landscape that is nostalgic for Wild West fans. The campsites are really cosy - all essential camping gear is provided, you are helped with setting up the camp and there is access to good quality showers and bathrooms. The main site even has wifi which is luxury. Obviously the Grand Canyon is another amazing aspect of this trip. The minivans are air-conditioned and have a couple of USB charge points. There are also lots of souvenir shops along route. Another highlight was travelling on route 66 and stopping at a local café for shakes. You pay a bit extra for evening meals ($50ish incl. the trip to Antelope), but they're all tasty and there is loads to go around.
All in all I can't emphasise how great this trip is, especially if you are only in the States for a short amount of time or haven't visited these locations before. I'd have been comfortable on this trip if I was a solo traveller as well (as there were a few in our group) as everyone is friendly and there are plenty of opportunities for social activity, such as s'mores around the campfire."Read full review

The three day Zion/Bryce/Antelope/Grand Canyon tour with an overnight in Monument Valley is not only huge on "wow" but really well organised. Great (and copious) commentary from our driver. So much packed in to three days. Was a real highli..ght of our time in the Southwest and blessed relief from the profligacy of Las Vegas.Read full review
Highly recommended tour. We were hesitant thinking it was more targeted at low budget travellers but we'd been staying in 4-5 star hotels and still found this a comfortable trip. We chose the lodging option. The best parts are - great itine..rary seeing the absolute highlights of the area in the three days; good hikes that most people would be able to do; comfortable vehicle and small group; well organised and professional; great tour guide; everything made easy; quite independent if you choose. The 50 minute helicopter flight over the Grand Canyon is an absolute must. The Antelope Canyon option is definitely worth it. Justin was a great tour guide - calm, accountable, professional, deeply knowledgable, caring and accommodating. This tour is incredible value for money. We would not have changed one thing.Read full review
The tour was really well organized. The guide, Mike, was nice, helpful and knowledgeable. It was the good group size, and all the other people make the experience even better. And of course, the landscapes were unforgettable.
The 3 day tour starts about 7.30 so we were on the road early to begin our adventure.
Maximum of 14, so easy comfort.
Visited Zion and Brice National Parks on our first day ----great.
Set up our Glamping tents for the night, then relaxed.. and enjoyed a delicious dinner before sitting,or standing around a camp fire.
Day 2, after breakfast set off for our trip , which included Antelope Canyon--- unbelievable , you go down the step ladders into this fabulous place.A photographers wish list, after taking so many photos, with the help of the local guide, we walked out of the Canyon to enjoy our lunch.
Later, we drove to Monument Valley went on a jeep ride with a local guide , then settled -- after setting up camp to watch the sunset.
Watching the sun the next morning was again memorable.
We stopped off on our way back to Vegas, via Route 66, enjoyed the stop.
Arrived back in Vegas about 8.30 pm, so exhausted but very happy.

I booked this three days tour for my parents and they couldn't be more happy! They enjoyed the hotels, the food, the competence of the guide, the people and the beautiful places included in the tour. They said they can't wait to be back in ..California to book another tour!
Communication between me and the organization was smooth and fast, I really appreciate their help!! ThanksRead full review
Fantastic tour, it started off in beautiful Zion and got better and better with every national park visited! All well organised and our guide Justin was great!
We wanted to do as much as possible but we only had 4 days, booking tours was the smartest thing I could have done. My 15 yr old son and I did the 2 night 3 day tour of Zion, Bryce, Monument Valley and Grand Canyon, we were lucky to have J..oe as our guide who was super knowledgeable about the area and attractions and really fun and entertaining. We also ended up with a super fun, energetic group which made it even more of a blast! Camping at Monument valley was a definite highlight, the camp sight faces the Buttes, so sunset and sunrise were out of this world. I'm glad we booked the helicopter tour of Grand Canyon, that was our last activity and pretty much the cherry on the sundae. And I'm really glad we chose the camping option, Joe made sure we were well taken care of and sleeping under the stars in the desert is an experience we'll never forget. If we make it back out there I would love to try one of their longer tours, our 3 days just flew by. Would heartily recommend to anyone considering doing a tour of the National Parks, we had an outstanding time, thanks ( and Joe )!!!Read full review
I had such a great time on this tour. It was 3 days, 2 night camping whirlwind tour of Zion, Bryce, antelope canyon, monument valley and Grand Canyon and it was an amazing few days. Although you are only at the parks for a couple of hours y..ou get to see the best parts! I was lucky to have Joe as my tour guide and he is fun, so knowledgable and makes sure everyone is happy! The camping is great, especially camping at monument valley and watching the sunrise over it! Food was great and plenty of it - especially the Navajo tacos! The people I was lucky enough to be grouped with were energetic and so much fun so the whole trip for me was perfect! Would definately recommend!Read full review
"This tour offered amazing views and an unforgettable experience! The tour schedule is just as described and packs a lot in. Be prepared to be on the move constantly. For me, this was great, as I hate sitting around, but if you like a slow..er pace, follow their advice and take a 7 day tour which gives you more time at each location. Our guide, Justin, was fabulous! He was polite, knowledgeable, and an all around great guy! No tour is perfect, and I would have liked a nicer hotel on day one and a better place to eat lunch on day two, but it's all good. I wouldn't trade the experience for anything! Definitely recommend this company and would travel again with them.

We are a mature couple & were expecting to be the oldest on this fab trip but we were with a mixed age group. Met up with our very experienced guide,Jenny, and her accomplice, Alex, early on a Monday morning and introduced to the rest of ou..r group. Our mini bus was clean, well maintained & pulled a trailer with all of our needs for the next 3 days(tents, food etc). Our first stop was Zion National Park where we parked and boarded the free shuttle bus. This stops off at numerous places along the road for the starts of walking routes. We did the Riverwalk. The next stop was Bryce Canyon, which technically is not a canyon, but WOW! what greeted us was the Hoodoos, a spectacular area of wind/weather eroded rock formations. Camping on the 1st night was just outside Bryce. 2nd day after breaking camp we travelled to Antelope Canyon via Glenn Valley Dam, which in itself is very interesting. Antelope Canyon is certainly a must see, absolutely wonderful. After picnic lunch we continued onto Monument Valley, our camp for the night overlooked the wonderful outcrops of huge rocks as seen on many a western film!. We toured the Valley with a Navajo guide who was quite entertaining. Stargazing at 3am was a magical experience. After breaking camp on the 3rd day we headed for the Grand Canyon South Rim. This again is a must see. It is beyond description except to say it's Awesome. Jenny was an excellent driver, very knowledgable guide & easy to get along with. Certainly recommend this tour, it's great!!!!Read full review
My girlfriend and I took the Death Valley national park tour as well as the 3 day national parks tour. Both were incredible. Friendly knowledgeable tour guides provided a wealth of knowledge throughout both tours. The organization and plann..ing that goes into the 3 day tour is very impressive. The tour is designed so well that drive times are only 2 hours followed by extensive time in each park for walks and hikes. We arrived at Zion by lunchtime and were given a delicious pre made sandwich lunch with potato chips and fruit and had 3 hours to explore. Zion is beautiful and we got some amazing photos. Next it's a really scenic drive through Zion towards Bryce where again we had 2 hours and plenty of time to do a great walk down into the hoodoos- a highlight of the tour for sure. For people not wishing to walk down into the hoodoos they can stroll along the rim for great views. We opted for the camping version of this tour and our guide Rachel arranged a group BBQ and campfire with toasted marshmallows. The BBQ was delicious, plenty of food, super healthy salad and sides and the campfire was fun especially later on when we could see the Milky Way and so many stars! The next day after a breakfast of fruit, yogurt, muffins, tea, coffee, orange juice we drove an hour and half to Lake Powell where we took the tour of Antelope Canyon- another highlight! Don't miss this part it's really amazing. Our guide was ready and waiting for us when we came up from the canyon with a lunch spread all set up for us. Specialty breads, meats, cheeses, salads and sides with fruit and chocolate brownies. Great lunch. Next we drive 1 hour 45 mins to Monument Valley where we had an included 1.5 hour Navajo guided jeep tour followed by at traditional taco dinner served right on the rim of Monument Valley while we watched an incredible sunset! Wow! Campground was in a great location directly in front of the Monuments and the sunrise is definitely worth waking up for. We got an early start 7.30am on day three to get to the Grand Canyon with plenty of time to explore. We did a 3 miles rim walk and a scenic helicopter flight over the canyon. Well worth it. There are also cafes and rim exhibits if you don't want to walk that far. Our guide set up a table for us to make our own lunches - again lots of variety in the food. We left the Grand Canyon at 2pm and drove 1.5 hours to Route 66 where we were given 30 mins to walk around and get some fun photos of Route 66 memorabilia. There is also a famous diner there called the Snow Cap if you fancy a milk shake it one of their famous burgers. Really fun stop. We arrived back in Vegas around 7.30pm. This is a truly amazing tour run by great guides. Pre tour communication was excellent and speedy. I can't recommend this company highly enough.Read full review

This was a fun trip they fit in a lot of highlights in a few days. I got to see some of the most majestic parts of the Southwest in a reasonable time frame.
I chose to camp instead of the hotel option and my favorite parts were camping i..n front of the massive Monument Valley buttes. The tents were good quality and easy to setup and take down and as demonstrated by Jennie our guide. The next morning the air was cool as I was waiting to video the sunrise I could feel the crisp breeze blowing across the valley floor that chilled my face and gave me a chilly hug to remind me I was alive and blessed to witness such an amazing sunrise coming up behind the incredible buttes. Other highlights were napping in the grass under a shady cottonwood tree at the foot of Angels Landing while listening to the wind play in the leaves above and the smell of wet pine trees after a brief summer rain storm in Bryce Canyon.
We visited Zion Nation Park, Bryce Canyon, Lake Powell, Antelope Canyon, Monument Valley the Grand Canyon and drove along the historic Route 66. I didn't go on the helicopter tour over the Grand Canyon but other people in our group said that was the highlight of their trip. I thought the sunrise at Monument Valley, camping in tents and Zion National Park were my favorites.Read full review
