94% Hectic schedule but good if you have only a few days to visit

Had some problem with the pick-up reservation. They did not update the information and had to change my pick-up location as they no longer do it where I had already done my room reservation. So better ask them to confirm about the pick-up a..vailability before booking your hotel.
Tour guide was friendly and his English is good. However since it is a Chinese-English tour, as expected, there might be some miscommunication. So you need to be attentive and ask questions to reconfirm. Tour in general was good even though quite hectic, especially when arriving in San Francisco. The cable ride needs to be reconsidered or better organised especially when there are a lot of people. Everyone had to be on the same cable car and it was very packed.Read full review
Tour was great but accommodation could have been better. The hotels mentioned in the list were different and the places where we stayed were not up to the mark. Please make sure to provide the level of accommodation mentioned in the itinera..ryRead full review
The only thing I didnt like... the tour was even not exactly as described.. on the Antelope Tour there is no Hoover Dam. Its another one. Unfortunately it wasnt possible to stop even for some pictures. Because the itinerary is that tight th..ere is no time left for anything. So its also not possible to visit the Grand Canyon on the same day. If you want to do both tours Antelope and Grand Canyon you have to drive 10 hours one day and the same distance the next day. For me one day was enough. Maybe its a better choice to drive to there by your own and stay there for 1-2 nights.Read full review

Overall, me and my friend had a fun time at the 2 night 3 day trip to Las Vegas and Grand Canyon. There were some good and bad things about this trip that we had talked about. First the bad things were, the bus was very squished without muc..h leg room and the tour guides mostly spoke in Chinese compared to English. Although I praise the effort they gave to translate into English. When we got to Las Vegas we had a small amount of time for lunch before arriving at the hotel. After looking at the yelp reviews me and my friend decided to just look around and ended up finding a Hawaiian Restaurant which I greatly recommend. Way cheaper! We got a meal with big portions for $4 each. The "buffet" costs $15 dollars and didn't look very good. Hotel check-in was a bit delayed for we had arrived early which wasn't much of a problem. Before going on the trip I was very hesitant on booking a trip on some website I've never heard of before but customer service was very good. Despite being unclear about Service Fee, other than that I was assisted very well. Hotel isn't super fancy, but the rooms that were booked were actually really clean. Not a 5 star hotel so don't expect much, but it still had nice rooms. Grand Canyon trip took a very long time to go there and back, although we had a nice time sightseeing. We didn't part take in the Las Vegas night tour so I can't say anything about that. But it was a nice option to be able to go sightsee off on our own. Which I do recommend. Last day was a bit disappointing (Not much to see and a bit of a negative experience..?) My friend had accidentally left his camera in the lobby (I know it was our fault for leaving it there..) so he ran back to the lobby, and while the tour guide was counting everyone, I had told him that my friend had gone back to the lobby real quick to get his camera so, I asked if it was possible to wait a little bit for him to come back. But he sounded frustrated telling me that we were supposed to leave at 7:30 but now its 7:50 (late departure because of some issues with checking out/bus arrival). Luckily my friend had came back just in time before we had left. We went to the chocolate factory which was pretty boring to be honest. I looked at everyone's expressions that was on the tour with us, they didn't really seem to be having fun or liked the "gift shops" at the chocolate factory (more like a tiny store than a "factory". When it was time to take off, we ended up turning back because someone was still inside the store. Which I was kind of annoyed at. (Not because we had to go back for the person) but because, when I told the tour guide that my friend went to go to the lobby, he said we can't wait for him... Also during the Grand Canyon Tour, before we had departed for the Grand Canyon, we waited about 20 minutes for someone who had woken up late and when leaving the Grand Canyon, we had to wait a good 30 minutes for a family who had misunderstood the departure time. There are 2 guides: 1 for the Las Vegas tour and 1 for the Grand Canyon tour. You will meet the Grand Canyon tourist guide on the 2nd day. Also the last stop on the last day which was at some "outlet" was kind of a disappointing. It was hard to call it an outlet at all. There are about 15 stores or so with not much to do, yet we got around 2 hours to look around and go shopping. (We ended up going to the Nike Store and stayed at the food court and then sat on a bench in front of some store) We were given a special extra 10% discount sticker, yet most of the stores did not even accept it. Other than that, for the price of the tour, it's not bad. Something's could have been better planned out, but based on our experience, I would recommend this tour if you want a cheap package to Las Vegas and Grand Canyon.Read full review
Accommodation is ok but some guests do have some luggage with 2 units that require elevator lift; fortunately I was at Level 1. The tour guide was a Chinese one and cannot understand some of his words. The 1st Tour guide we have is a lot be..tter.Read full review
I expected the tour guide to actually talk about the places we were going to, and the sceneries we were passing to get there, but he never gave us any substantial information. We didn't learn much from this tour. Also, most of the places we.. went to were obviously just establishments that the tour company was making commission off of--such as the Chinese buffet place and the Ethel Chocolate factory. On top of this, it seemed as if the tour company was making profit off of us through the entrance fees to our destinations. A good example of this would be the Grand Canyon South Rim, where they charged a much higher price than the standard rate. Overall, very very disappointed and would not recommend to anyone.Read full review
It was really bad for the tour guy not to check me into hotel until I made payment for extra attraction fee. He kept me waiting for 2hrs and even wanted to go out while my boyfriend was still trying to sort out the additional charges. I had.. to give him 100usd, the only cash i had at that time before he checked me in.
I felt the value of the extra attraction fee was not worth it. Buffet was bad with stale food.
Asides that, hotel was great.Read full review
