We had a good time at west rim of Grand Canyon, but the visit to the Hoover Dam is too short and the bus stop is far from the major part of the dam. Half hour more could be much better.
Overall, the tour was good. I wish we could have arrive at Idaho Falls earlier so we could spend more time there on our first day. Given the time constraints and so many sights to see, I am content about the trip.
If you like the contrast between majestic mountains and the barren red rocks, this is a must-see tour. In a short duration of 6 days and 5 nights, the tour takes you through five of America's most beautiful mountain states from Colorado to ..South Dakota, to Wyoming, to Dakota, to Utah, and back to Colorado. You will visit the men-made wonder of Mount Rushmore and the nature spectacular of Devil's Tower. You will be exposed to the mystical geothermal activities of Yellowstone and majestic Grand Teton Mountain range. Finally you will see the unforgettable red rock arches contrasting with the seemingly barren Great Salt Lake. in addition to these major attractions, the various side trips to Dever's Red Rock Amphitheater, Jackson Hole, the international skiing village of Vail, and the Rocky Mountain high point of Johnson Tunnel, are experiences that you will not easily forget.- and most importantly, all these at a very reasonable price.
The accommodation were not luxurious but comfortable. The bilingual (English & Chinese) tour guide was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable, and the driver was skillful and safety conscious. The coach bus was new and comfortable. Unfortunately there were a couple seats whose reclining mechanism of which did not work properly. Having to sit in that position for an extended period of time made it rather uncomfortable. Hopefully they will be repaired soon. Also, the back of each seat does not provide a "pocket" for passenger to put things in it - seems to be a design oversight.
Overall, I would say this tour is great value for any nature lovers who want to enjoy the best of what America's mountain states have to offer on a budget that will not break ones bank accounts, and yet at a reasonably comfortable mode of transportation and accommodation. I would recommend this highly.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
Crystal was great. She contacted me the day before to explain time and place where to meet at my hotel. Then texted me with her number for any questions or concerns I would have. The tour bus ride was OK. Comfortable seating, clean and air ..conditioned.
We left at 6am and we were back by 2pm, which I consider to be good timing.Read full review

Best experience ever! My boyfriend and I really enjoyed ourselves and highly recommend people to do it. A big thanks to our tour guide Ray, he was awesome!!
Very good tour. Takes care of the hassles of driving from Seattle. The guide was an experienced driver who could drive safely in thick fog. We saw Narada Falls, Rainier from Paradise Center and Reflection Lake. It filled productively all t..he time available.Read full review
Unfortunately third person has to cancel. Would have appreciated if i got it waived, cause there are many seats available for the tour and no inconvenience caused for anyone.
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
