My sister and I had a fantastic tour with George and Chris. We seen alot of sites on our tour which was for seven days which started in Denver and consisted of Yellowstone and surrounding areas. The hotels met our standards. We could no..t have done this tour ourselves and seen everything we seen in seven days. The bus was very convenient as you can see much more higher up in the bus and not worry about getting lost or traffic. Our entire tour group really enjoyed the mixture of people on this tour and everybody was well received. Everybody had a great time on this tour. There was not alot of free time but enough time for shopping along the way. I would recommend this tour to anybody. This is the second time we used Tours4fun. In a couple of years we plan on using this tour company again for the Canada trip.

Overall, the trip is fun and enjoyable. My best friend and I do see a lot of landscape, and do learn lot of history. However, our bus is broken down in Dead Wood, and we were stuck there for 5 hours for another bus. Yet, we do totally un..derstand that it wasn't the tour guide fault, so we are not complain about that. Before we head back to Denver, Larry gave each of us $10 back and sorry for any convenience. Larry is super nice, and we are looking forward to have him as our tour guide again in our future tour. I will definitely book the tour through tours4fun.com again.Read full review
Recently we took this three days trip and my wife and I were totally satisfied, especially considering the low cost. They kept us in a decent hotel which included breakfast. The tour guide Mr. King was polite, gentleman. Despite majority to..urists were from South-east Asia, he first described in English and then in Chinese. The bus driver was from Floria and he was also a perfect gentleman. Overall, the we were veru happy with the trip. I can highly recommend this tour.Read full review
We met Larry, our tour guide, at the Denver Airport at the fountain (which is not a working fountain). Just ask any of the information clerks at the airport where it is and they will point you in the right direction. He was very pleasant ..and put us at ease regarding the logistics of the trip we were about to embark on. The bus was very clean and new. You have to handle your own luggage, so pack lightly. There is overhead room on the bus for carryon/camera bags. The larger luggage is put beneath the bus during travel. The bus driver loads and unloads the luggage at each stop, you take it from there to and from your room. The bus makes restroom stops approximately every 1-1/2 - 2 hours during the trips. You need to be tolerant/patient at the food/restroom stops because sometimes there is more than one bus at the rest stop and lines are long (as was the case during our trip). Our tour had 2 busses and there seemed to be another that followed the same route as our bus. Larry was very informative and knowledgeable regarding the tour stops. He gives the information in both English and Chinese. The hotels were not 5-star, but we found them clean and pleasant. (Two even had laundry facilities in them - although at many hotels, we arrived after 7:00 p.m., so not sure how much time one would have to clean their clothes). The Yellowstone cabins are bare-bones; electricity, shower, bathroom, bed...nothing fancy, but we found that to be part of the charm of being with nature. Larry arranges for a wake up call at each hotel, with the exception of the Yellowstone cabin, as there is no phone/no t.v at that cabin. Most - not all hotels had a continental breakfast, but Larry told us which did not have a continental breakfast so we could purchase food items to eat the in the morning, and we stopped at a rest stop within a few hours, so we purchased breakfast then. Larry also informed us when there were grocery stores so that we could buy snacks, etc. to bring on the bus. We had an excellent time and are looking forward to booking another trip. By the way, we Loved Larry. We thought he was very professional, friendly and knowledgable!Read full review

Never took a tour before, after my experience, I must say that the tour made a very good impression for tours4fun for the 3 days until it was time to go home.
It started out where Mark ( tour guide ) Great Guy very informative and very kn..owledgeable of every point and site that we visited including San Francisco , Hearst Castle, and Yosemite Park. The Bus is surely clean, spacious, rules were applied on the bus, however in my condition i was motion sickness so i stood most of the time going to Yosemite Park ( Laughing ). Mark made me sit in front when it was our turn to sit towards the back. Mark is very understanding and he actually sat in the back in my chair. Funny ! But cool because he cares for the people/tourists. I give Mark A@@plush; for that. You have a great tour guide. I hope you keep him for a long time! Alot of internationals touring and made a few friends although my family was with me. I felt i was the Photographer Consultant in the bus teaching the people how to take great shots :). Anyways, the tour is something i can't really put on words because you have to experience it and don't expect anything. Just go with it and enjoy yourself. I wouldn't mind repeating that tour again. I have alot of smiles when i came home. I actually made a few friends and i miss them already. If anything I wish the tour lasted more than 3 days. Good to meet good people, eat good food, and most off JESUS our bus driver. Great Driver !!! A@@plush; for JESUS i also miss that guy! The Hotels clean, spacious, quiet, and free wifi so bring your laptop. :) for those that use Skype to talk to your love ones far away. Now going home we had to swtich buses, to accommodate the ones going back to O.C and the airport. I guess there was another Tour Guide named MiMi why he told me his name was MiMi Funny. But his real name is Paul. I guess he's either one in a bad mood or just totally angry. D@@plush; for him. Sorry he wasn't friendly. Plus he sat next to me. Other than that, I had a great and wonderful time. Thank You Mark & JESUS for a great 3 day tour! If anyone decides to take this tour, make sure you ask for Mark !!Read full review

Our family had a wonderful time. 7/21-7/27/10. Our bus driver Jay was excellent and Mark (tour guide) kept us well informed. The tour took us to all the highpoints of our 3,000 round trip tour. Although this is considered a chinese tour, m..ost of the passengers were English speaking. Tour guide spoke english and Chinese. Will recommend this tour to family and friends. Job well done.Read full review
This tour was full of fun! The places we visited were definately the best places to go on the west side of the U'states. The tour guides were also friendly and always willing to help. However, information given by the tour guide was a littl..e hard to understand or confusing at times. Read full review
There is a lot to do Vegas alongside playing cards in the casino, and this card come in handy for the other things. Of course, I still spent the better part of my weekend in the Casinos.
Well worth the money. There was so much to do! We went to the Eiffel Tower Experience at Paris Las Vegas and The Stratosphere Tower Observation Deck and got a lot of use out of the car.

This was a great trip We covered 6 states in 7 days. We stopped at or drove through over 20 major places of interest. Our tour guide, Larry, was excellent. Very organized and provided us with the history of what we were going to visit. Ver..y informative. Larry and our driver, Kevin, were very helpful in keeping us on time and safe. They worked well as a team. They were very helpful to everyone that needed a little extra help getting on or off bus and telling us where ramps were for easier walking. Best trip that I've ever taken. Thanks everyone.Read full review
Met our guide, Larry, at Denver airport. He was easy to find, and we left the airport right on schedule.
The bus was nice, quite new, very clean. Wish the seat backs had had pockets, but they did not. The seats only had fair lumbar ..support, so if this is important, bring a small pillow. There are overhead spaces for extra things needed during the day.
Tour guide Larry did an excellent job. He is a professional and never got rattled when things didn't go just as they should have, which will happen on a tour of this nature. He narrated in Chinese and English and did a good job of balancing this. He gave information about each stop before we got there.
As for luggage, you have to handle your own luggage to and from the bus. (This is not a tour for people who cannot handle their own luggage or climb on and off a bus multiple times a day.)
Our driver, Kevin, was very good and drove smoothly and carefully. He also did a good job loading and unloading all the luggage from the bus.
There is a lot of bus riding on this tour, but you see a lot as well. They stop every 1.5 to 2 hours at the most. Larry showed videos on the bus. It was helpful to see the videos of our next point of interest before we got there. There were also entertainment videos.
It's a wonderful tour, but tiring as well because you are constantly moving.
The hotels/motels were a mixed bag. Some were very nice, and a couple others were not so nice. In particular, the West Yellowstone motel was really not a good place to stay, but the people were nice.Read full review
Most people go to Vega to gamble, but it's not my preference and I wanted to have other options with my kids. Getting these cards really helped out. Not only did it give us more ideas, but we either got in free or with a great discount!
