we had a great time touring the antelope Canyon and the horseshoe bend. the only thing that I don't like is the Bus's microphone is not working so the tour guide eva had to talk in the middle of the bus and I can't hear mostly what she said.. coz I was seating in the front. also, she talks mostly in Chinese.Read full review
The above summary says it all really. But beyond that, what made it particularly special was the exposure to Navajo guides and to Navajo hostess Sheila who welcomed us into her home and cooked for us.
Chris was a fantastic guide and an exc..ellent driver. Fantastic people skills.
Bryce, Antelope, Monument Valley, Grand......they are all amazing.
Strongly recommend

Amazing places and a very well structured and managed 3 days and the guide, Chris, was excellent: very capable, generous and informative. Also, the Navajo guides and hostess were great.
We had a fantastic time and would recommend it to anyone. Our guide Jon was extremely knowledgeable with a great sense of humour. We intend to come back next year.
Very nice tour with the highlights from the area. Great guide, great campsites - good mood in the group- also thanks to Alex our tour guide. A great experience, gladly again
First and foremost, I must say that this 3 day, 2 night 'guided tour' by Jon (No 'H' please), was hands down the best guided tour I have ever taken. I have traveled with my family all over the world, but never experienced anything like this... We flew in to Las Vegas from California and met friends from Boston who wanted to see the Grand Canyon. My friend was very reluctant to take a tour because in the past she had done so to the Hoover Dam and said it was a silver-haired boring experience. This one was a complete 180, and she can't stop talking about it. From the moment Jon picked us up, he was a complete professional and and a true gentleman. He helped everyone on with their bags, accommodated everyone on the chartered van, and always let us know where we would be going and when and where we would be stopping. In those three days and two nights, we saw way more than we possibly could have imagined. Jon was so efficient with the itinerary and made sure he took us to key spots to take it all in. We had just enough time at each spot to see what we wanted to. We saw Zion Park, Antelope Valley, the Horseshoe, Powell Lake, Bryce Canyon, Monument Valley, a Navajo Reservation, and the Grand Canyon. In between stops, Jon became an entertainer with his great sense of humor and taught and informed us with a phd level of education from everything from Geology to Native American History to US History, etc. The tour was no less than fascinating. We traveled in a very comfortable van with 14 seats and met friends from Australia, Scotland, and Iran. The five of us were American. To maximize time, while we were visiting, Jon went out and bought great foods for us to make two picnic lunches that were awesome. He checked us in to two hotels that were awesome, and even brought us to the best Trading Post to buy authentic Souvenirs. Traveling with him made everything so much fun. We all laughed and shared information and stories. I came home with a book list and movie list of titles Jon referred to. I think it is incredible to have a guide that makes such a great traveling companion. I would do this tour over again in a heart beat, not only for the parks, but for the amazing tour guide. I'm guessing this company has all great guides, but I can't imagine one that would be better than Jon. This tour was well worth the cost. For the type of accommodations and information and guidance, I would have thought they would have charged three times. This was a world class travel experience that we will never forget, and we are already planning a second trip to Yellowstone. Way to go Jon! Way to go!Read full review
Fast tour of the area! See a heap and fit in lots! Jon was great at being flexible with weather and food! Very entertaining but be prepared to move quickly and have early mornings. Super organised!
Every place we went to was breath-taking. Amongst my favorite moments was hiking through Antelope Canyon. Jeeping through Monument Valley and learning all about this Native American land. The Grand Canyon took my breath away. And the Route ..66 drive back to Vegas was awesome, and so much fun. Must be said though that our tour guide and minibus driver, Brad, had a lot to do with the tour being amazing. He gave so much of himself, gave us heaps of interesting info about all the places, and was a great bloke and amazing American. Thank you Brad!Read full review
