100% 7 Day National Parks Private Tour with Rachel. Sensational Trip!!!
By: Anonymous | Mon Aug 20, 2018 at 12.00 AM
From the time we first contacted Rachel, right through to the very end of our
trip, we had such a personal, professional, friendly, informative and thoroughly enjoyable
experience. Rachel customised this tour based on what we wanted to see ..but made very
valuable suggestions re the split between camping and hotel options and the timing of the
activities and sights we saw on the trip. The end result was one of the most amazing touring
experiences our family (incl. kids aged 9 & 10) have ever had.
We enjoyed commentary of the areas we drove through, several stops off the beaten path that
we'd never have found or known about without Rachel's insight and even road games with the
kids as well as Smores by the campfire, which the kids loved.. Rachel's thoughtful attention to
detail in picking up passing comments and turning them into further opportunities to enhance
our holiday experience added another personal touch that we really appreciated. An example of
this was Rachel observing our interest in the 4th July decorations ready for the celebrations the
next day. A couple of phone calls later and we were able to stay on in Page, Arizona to join in
the fun.
The tour vehicle was roomy, comfortable and clean and the hotels we stayed at were all lovely,
well located with full amenities including a pool.
A few of our many memorable highlights on this tour include Rachel securing a prime camp spot
for our stay in Monument Valley, right in front of the monuments where we were able to see the
sunrise with unimpeded views, swimming in Lake Powell, guided Navajo tour through Antelope
Canyon, hiking below the rim into the Grand Canyon, a horse trail ride down into the floor of
Bryce Canyon, visiting Horseshoe Bend and the kids completing their Junior Ranger Programs
in Bryce and Grand Canyon National Parks.
Rachel's knowledge of the South-West is immense and it's easy to see she thoroughly enjoys
what she does. So proactive and enthusiastic, her energy was infectious making us eager to try
things we might not have thought of. We would thoroughly recommend it if you're
considering venturing to this part of the USA.Read full review
100% Enjoy the 3 day camping tour and full of surprises

It was first camping in my life and could be the best! Every day and everything is well arranged.
Mike Brown makes me realize how crucial the role of a tour guide is. Unlike other tour guides
before, Mike is very organized and patient. He d..rives all the way without any words like tired or
unhappy. He is a good leader to the team, a very helpful friend on the way, a nice driver aware
everyone's safety, and last but not the least, he is an excellent storyteller, very informative. All
that makes me a kind of enjoy in the van, although felt nauseous because of too busy with our
schedule every minute. Mike shared stories about American Indian, the Hoover Dam, Vegas
and the Historical Route 66 when we are driving through. There were surprises everyday, every
place was different. By the way, the meals are good with many choices, and water are provided
sufficiently every dayRead full review
It was an incredible journey. We visited Monument Valley, Zion, Bryce, Grand Canyon and Antelope Canyon. The guide Chris Patrick was a genius, super attentive and helped us in everything we needed. Very polite and with a lot to tell about e..ach place. Because there are many Chris Patrick is worth clarifying that I speak of "The real Chris Patrick". Very good quality and price ratio. It is a tour that should be done if you are in Las Vegas--Read full review
This trip was planned to perfection and I am still amazed how much of the canyonlands we saw
in three days. Zion and Bryce were stunning, Antelope Canyon was just surreal and Monument
Valley and Grand Canyon were awesome. An absolute bonus ..was the jeep tour across the
Navajo Reservation and the unexpected evening meal at the home of a very hospitable Navajo
Indian family.
Our driver and guide,Jon, was superb. From the moment we left Las Vegas he entertained us
with his wealth of factual information and his personal anecdotes. Good timing was essential
with so much to see in such a short time and Jon managed this to perfection with ample time to
see the sights and take advantage of the comfort breaks en route.
My wife and I ,being senior citizens, chose the overnight lodge option rather than the camping
and our accommodation on both nights was comfortable and acceptable.
Overall this small group tour enabled us to experience a great deal in a short space of time in
good company and with a very professional tour guideRead full review
This 7 day trip from Vegas through all those National Parks and Monuments in the Southwest
was amazing. Our guide Jon was very knowledgeable about the area as he did wilderness trips
in the area before becoming a tour guide.
The drives thro..ugh this incredible sceneries never felt long and the trip despite being only 7
days long didn't feel rushed at all (but not saying you couldn't spend months in this area).
I definitely enjoyed every bit of this trip: our diverse group, the peaceful campsites and
camping-spirit, the early rising for amazing hikes, the things learnt and the passion shown from
our tour guide, and of course the incredible places visited.
This was definitely my 1 year US highlight so far and I am looking forward for other tours! 110% recommendation!Read full review
3 days and 2 nights.
This was the most amazing tour I have ever done.
Organisation was fantastic.
The places we saw were incredible- with side tours and dinners added on just made the trip.
Our guide Marie was awesome- so knowledgeable, pro..fessional, organised, safe and lots of
fun.
I’m going to send my parents on this tour.
I’d even do it a second time myself!
Loved every moment of it.
Thank you.Read full review
This was one of the best bus tours I've been on with this company. George was an awesome tour guide. He let us sit in front for the entire trip (Shhh... that's supposed to be a secret). We also traveled with a great group of people which.., I believe, made it even so much more enjoyable. The highlight for us was soaking in the hot springs pool after coming down from our long hike at Arches National Park. It was quite an experience for us being first time hikers. We almost gave up halfway through but it was so encouraging and inspiring to hike with someone who had a pacemaker and most likely twice our age. It didn't stop them from the hike so who were we to give up, right? =) I would definitely go on this tour again especially if they bring George back and give us another great birthday discount. I highly recommend this tour (if it's still available).Read full review
I strongly concur with the other reviewers who did this incredible tour. Our tour guide Mike
Brown was excellent - very knowledgeable, friendly and an excellent driver. He took a laid back
approach which we appreciated. The whole tour was w..ell organised and we had frequent stops
on the way. Being retirees we opted to stay in hotels rather than camping and both were good
with excellent dining options and shops. We enjoyed meeting some lovely young people from all
over the world.
Lunch on the first day was quite basic but was much better on the next two days when we had a
huge array of cold meats, salad, dips, fresh fruit and bread to select from.
We really enjoyed our hike along the river in Zion Canyon and Bryce Canyon was truly stunning.
Antelope Canyon was a magical experience and our young Navajo guide was good at helping
us to get the best shots. We also enjoyed our Navajo guided tour to Monument Valley. Our
guide was warm and friendly and told us interesting stories about her family and her people. We
also enjoyed our unexpected stop at Horseshoe Bend although the trek to see it was quite
difficult in the extreme heat. We loved seeing the amazing Grand Canyon and doing the 5 km
walk along the rim. Our 25 min helicopter trip over the Grand Canyon was just incredible. It
really was the highlight of our whole 5 week trip to North America.
On our way back to Las Vegas we had a fun stop at a quirky cafe on historic Route 66 at
Seligman, Arizona called Delgadillo's Snow Cap. We enjoyed a delicious strawberry malted milk
and french fries. This family business was established in 1953 and is still going strong.
I highly recommend this tour. Each day is very full so you need to be prepared for that. You
need a reasonable level of fitness to do the walks although easier options are always given and
there is of a hotel version available.Read full review
It was a great 7 days tour with Bradley as our guide! Brad was great! he is so helpful and
making sure each enjoyed the most of the trip :) all the destinations were a WOW for me, all are
in my bucket list and can't believe I could visit th..em all in one go! Make sure you drink A LOT of
water! but Brad always made sure we have enough water whenever we reach each stop, and
he would prepare enough ICE and WATER in our van :)) the campsites were all GOOD! with
toilets and showers, the monument valley campsite was definite the best campsite ever with that
VIEWWW~ and I got to meet so many nice people around the world in my tour, we got to hike
together in early morning, setting up camps and eat together in amazing places... definitely a
MUST DO if you would like to experience Utah! thank you Brad!Read full review

This trip was a fabulous experience for both my son and me. We saw just about everything we
would want to see in the Southwest in one week but despite the quick pace we never felt
rushed. The hiking was truly memorable and the parks were st..unning. Our wonderful guide, Jon
Maret, was knowledgeable, funny and relaxed. He was extremely kind to my 15 year-old son
and helped him with a photography project. In addition to all of Jon’s amusing stories about the
region, I particularly enjoyed visiting the Navajo Nation and joining a local family for dinner. I'm a
56 year old woman who has never traveled as part of a tour, nor camped out. Needless to say, I
was a little apprehensive about both of these things. Much to my delight, our group of 14 got
along very well and camping was fun and easy. Several of the campgrounds we stayed in were
lovely. The food was filling and tasty – quite an accomplishment considering Jon was cooking
for 14 on a camp stove! For the price, this tour was a great value. My son is already looking
forward to next summer when we’d like to visit the RockiesRead full review
3 Day National Park Tour was one of the best experiences during our four week trip to North
America! Especially because of our awesome guide Jon, who has a incredible knowledge. He told the
group a lot of interesting stories about his count..ry and personal experiences. Even on longer bus rides it
never got boring with him.
We loved the unique nature and spending time in the National Parks. The tour was organized very well.
Though we only had three days, the time was filled with one of a kind experiences. In most of the parks
we had two to three hours to discover the area by ourselves. The optional tour in Antelope Canyon was
lead by a local guide and lasted about an hour. In Monument Valley a fun and informative Jeep-Tour with
a local Navajo guide was included. After that we had a traditional dinner at a Navajo familys home which
was one of my favorite stops because we got a chance to see how some of the locals live.
During this tour my sister and I slept in a tent for the first time. I needed some time to get used to it (I slept
better the second night :D) but it was totally worth it! The view from the campground in Monument Valley
was just breathtaking! The supplied tents were spacious and easy to put up, the campgrounds and
washing facilities were clean.
I can highly recommend this tour and wish I could do it again someday!Read full review
