A wonderful experience and recommended without hesitation. Our very friendly and humorous Tour Leader JD from Bindlestiff Tours was very professional; his knowledge of the areas visited made it much more interesting. Our group had various n..ationalities and ages from 20- 60s+ which was a good mix.
The vehicles are not spacious and could be challenging if less mobile or unable to sit for long periods. It was a lot of miles to cover in the three days of the tour but breaks were frequent. Be prepared to change seats in the bus each day so everyone can have a chance to talk with others in the group while travelling and to take turns in the more comfy or window seats.
You are on a camping tour so don't be afraid to share in some of the meal preparation to help make it a more enjoyable holiday. As the token Aussie, I was nominated to help do the dinner BBQ in the campground which I enjoyed.
As a couple of very fit nearly 60 yr olds we still found the full Bryce Canyon loop hike a challenge so the full loop (about 45mins- 1 hr) is not for the faint hearted given the time constraints . But if you can do it, it is a magical hike.
Take the Antelope Canyon optional tour; you will not be disappointed! You need good mobility for the steep ladders and sometimes very narrow pathways and it is largely underground.
Watch the sunrise over Monument Valley; simply stunning.
If you can, take a helicopter tour over the Grand Canyon. It is an amazing site from the ground but from above it takes on a mind numbing perspective; unparalled beauty.
We travelled mid-October and while very warm in Las Vegas, evening and night time temperatures on the tour meant warm clothing was a necessity.
As others have said in their reviews, it is fast paced but gives you a once in a lifetime experience to see all of these attractions in a short amount of time; or a great taster to come back again and do it at a more leisurely pace. 10/10.

I was looking for tours online and saw Tours4Fun. It was easy to purchase online. In a few minutes I had the trip booked. I did make two calls to customer service: one in Vegas and another one in New York and they were friendly. Recently I ..had a helicopter trip that I took from Vegas to the Grand Canyon and a tour to the Niagara Falls that I took from New York. I liked it. Both trips were great. The customer service people were amazing and tourist guides were great. I will take more tours with them. My family and I had a very good time.Read full review
I booked a tour with Tours4Fun for a 3 day Grand Canyon West Rim and West Coast tour. The service I received from the representatives was excellent. They answered all of my questions and made me feel confident in taking this tour. This was ..my first time ever taking a tour and visiting the Grand Canyon so naturally I was nervous and not sure what to expect. The tour guide provided great service and also answered any additional questions I had while on tour. I would definitely recommend booking with Tours4Fun!Read full review
Taking this tour was one of the best experiences I have had! This was my first time visiting the Grand Canyon and was not sure what to expect. Our tour guide Frank made us feel so welcomed and comfortable. Frank provided us with information.. at every sightseeing stop we made and made sure all of our questions were answered. When we arrive at the canyon we had 4 hours of free time to explore the canyon on our own. The food provided was delicious, not to mention we had an amazing view while we ate. We arrived back to the hotel with plenty of time to explore and sight see on our own. Having been to Las Vegas a number of times I am glad I still participated in the Las Vegas night tour. We visited Old Town Las Vegas and it was full of life and something I would have never seen if I were travelling alone. Overall, I had a great time and completely recommend this tour!Read full review
This is amazing value. Three days, two nights for just over $100 including 2 nights accommodation in a decent hotel. I recommend the $25 night tour of Las Vegas as it takes you to some iconic and amazing places.
The tour guide, Jimmy, was ..inclusive and funny and explained things well, both in Chinese and English. Yes, there were a lot of Chinese people on the bus but they were really nice. Sometimes a little slow to get back on the bus at the right time though.
The Grand Canyon was spectacular and going to the West rim we had less time on the bus and more time at the canyon which was amazing.
Five stars! Read full review
My 3 day bus tour to Las Vegas-Grand Canyon was memorable as it was my first time.It was a relaxing trip and the guide was accommodating pleasing the passengers with bilingual answers to questions.My group had a great fun and ride. I want t..o try other tours.Read full review
I went on the 3 day tour of Las Vegas and Grand Canyon and was very impressed. At first I was a bit wary as I had read of previous tours where the clients are mainly Chinese and the tour guide spoke mainly Chinese but this was not the case... OUr guide Jimmy Choo explained everything really well. His recommendations were truthful and funny. The tour is such good value for money too. The trip there and back was in a new bus with a careful driver, the hotel was excellent and they even cleaned the room twice a day. I opted to pay extra for a single room and it was not much more. I also went on the $25 extra tour of Las Vegas adn that was worth every penny as we went to places I didn't now existed.
The tour was well organised and time was allowed for free time. A shopping time at the end in a mall with great discounts rounded off a tour that I can thoroughly recommend. Do it!Read full review
It was a wonderful trip. Tour4fun was punctual and gave a good guide. The food was delicious, and the guide offered excellent ideas to enjoy Las Vegas.
The Grand Canyon was the best. We had enought time to know the place and stay there. T..he best photos that I have took in a trip.
Excellent price for this wonderful trip.
Black point: being at five o´clock in the morning the second day.Read full review
Yellowstone was more beautiful than I could ever imagine. The most beautiful nature ever! It was also great to see Jackson Hole and the Grand Tetons. Austin was the tour guide. He genuinely cared that patrons had a good and safe time. ..Telling us what weather conditions would be, how warm to dress and to be careful walking on a few slippery surfaces. This tour is highly recommended! KarinRead full review

This 3 day trip was one of the most amazing and memorable times we have had as a family. We had an amazing tour guide, "Chris" who went out of his way to accommodate everyone, very friendly, polite, professional, always smiling, making sure.. everyone was doing well, being safe, and having fun. He was very informative and explained every detailed of our trip. We were impressed that we had two free buffets that were delicious. The Grand Cayon is unbelievable! The bus driver was also very professional, friendly and very responsible. We also had the privilege of meeting the most incredible people from Australia and Mexico and exchanged our information to keep in touch. Highly recommend this family trip!Read full review

This tour is a good way to see a lot in a short time. It was nice to meet lots of new people.
The tour guide was great pointing things out especially as English was not her first language.
I always received a reply to any query within hours, quite often minutes. So from the start I was assured that this was going to be a well organised trip. We went on the National Parks Winter tour and I can't think of any reason why you wou..ldn't choose any tour. Mike our guide was incredibly knowledgable and anything he didn't know he would find out. He also catered the whole trip for different abilities, ages, likes. In our party we had a huge age range but this was no problem. Our enjoyment was his priority and it really showed, thank you Mike. The hotels we stayed in were both comfortable and clean. Lunch provided was in picnic form and had such a variety for all tastes, a really good change from the diners and cafés we'd been using so far on our holiday. The sights we saw were breathtaking and indescribable everything was more enjoyable because they know where to see things from, the best walks to do, the name of the animal you just saw or what the colour of that rock means. I would love to travel again.Read full review

We did the 7 day Southwest tour visiting Zion, Bryce Canyon, Monument Valley and The Grand Canyon. This was a truly unforgettable experience not only due to the amazing locations visited but because of the profession..alism of Khriss our tour leader. Everything was so well organised and nothing was too much trouble for him; he also treated everyone as an individual. He shared his passion for all the areas we visited with fascinating information and loved being asked questions! His enthusiasm was infectious; his 15 years of experience as a tour guide was apparent. The small group aspect of the tour allowed for flexibility for not only the group but for individuals in it. Unscheduled 'detours' could also occur such as our van joining in a Route 66 parade in the town of Seligman, Arizona!
We were in the U.S. for just over three weeks, fully occupied with touristy things each day (visiting Las Vegas, Los Angeles, driving the Pacific Coast Highway to stay in San Francisco) but our week on the road with Bindlestiff was the highlight of our whole trip.
If you are a bit worried about camping...don't! The tents and mattresses give you problem free sleeping...and it's fun. Whatever tour length you choose you are going to have a truly wonderful experience.
Thank you so much Khriss, thank you so much Rachel. Peter, Susan, Tony.
