From start to finish, this tour was memorable for all the right reasons. The tour is incredibly well organised. Our tour guides, Jennie and Evan, were knowledgeable, clear on meeting times & their expectations, helpful and generous. They ap..proached each day with enthusiasm, never hesitating to answer our questions about national sites, geology, culture, weather forecast for the day and the days ahead so we were always adequately dressed and topping us up with water throughout the day while also sharing anecdotes of their experiences. Notes for the tour: - On most days (especially if you are camping) you will need to get up early (~6.30am). However, this is just so we can cover the distance to get to locations before major tour buses do (completely worth it) and you can catch up on sleep while on the drive. - At every destination there are activities which can range in intensity. It is your choice on what kind of climbs/walks you'd like to do so this is great for all ages. Our tour guide provided us with the information needed to choose the appropriate walk such as altitude, distance and time. - Catered lunches are usually sandwiches with cold meats and condiments. - Pit stops occur every 2-2.5hrs and is usually at a gas station. This provides you with time to grab a coffee, snack and anything else you may need. Our tour guide informed us of which stops had the best toilet facilities. - As I chose the lodging facilities, I would rate them between 3.5-4 stars. Each facility had warm showers, comfortable beds & heaters. There were also facilities to buy snacks, souvenirs and dinner within the hotel complex. - I would highly recommend doing the Antelope Canyon & traditional Najavo dinner as they are inexpensive but was by far for majority of the tour participants - Definitely bring a backpack containing a water bottle, sunscreen, wind jacket (as it gets very cold and windy at times), sneakers, jumper & clothes you can comfortably walk in if you intend on going on more arduous walks such as activewear. Thanks to Jennie and Evan for such a great time! I would definitely return to tours4fun the next time I am looking for a tour.Read full review
100% 3-Day National Parks Camping Tour: Zion, Bryce Canyon, Monument Valley and Grand Canyon from Las Vegas
By: Anonymous | Mon Feb 05, 2018 at 12.00 AM
What an amazing tour! It was non-stop for 3-days and I feel like we saw everything. Our guide, Jennie, was AMAZING. She knew everything and treated everyone like a friend and really made our experience even better. From Zion to Bryce to Ant..elope to Horseshoe to Monument Valley, to the culmination of Grand Canyon, this tour was visually stunning and educational. And the camping locations were great, especially in Monument Valley and waking up to the sunrise. Thank you to Bindlestiff for taking care of all the logistics and providing a safe, educational experience and a great itinerary. I can't wait to do another tour in the future.Read full review
I did the 3-day camping tour to Zion/Bryce, Monument Valley and Grand Canyon on October 2, 2017, with Bindlestiff Tours. Our driver and guide, Jon Maret, was amazing. He was very knowledgeable, friendly with a great sense of humor, punctual.. and professional. A lot of driving was involved but he helped to fill the long journeys with many interesting facts and historical information about the areas we were driving through. He kept the group interested and laughing with his stories and jokes.
I was a little worried about doing a 3-day camping trip with a group of complete strangers but Jon made everyone feel at ease. He gave us a printed itinerary and was very organized. He gave us tips on the best hikes we could do given the time limits at each location.
Lower Antelope Canyon was the highlight of my trip; the formations and colors were surreal. The hoodoos at Zion were stunning. I was a little disappointed with Bryce and Grand Canyon but maybe I would have enjoyed them more if we had more time to explore.
This was a highly memorable trip where I checked off several items from my bucket list. I recommend this camping trip with Bindlestiff Tours.Read full review
The tour covers a lot of ground (and miles!), but it is very well-thought, so everything is done efficiently. Though it is intense, it doesn't feel rushed. It was my first time camping, but the equipment provided (tents, ...) seemed very go..od to me. The parks themselves are awesome (especially Antelope and Bryce). Our guide, John, was fantastic: very kind, very helpful, and a mine of interesting info and trivia.Read full review
From start to finish the tour was excellent and we couldn't fault it as a way of seeing so much in the space of three days. Our small bus (14 passengers) was clean and comfortable and the tour well paced, considering the miles travelled and.. the adequate amount of time allowed for at each site. We did not camp and our accommodation on each of the two nights was very good. Our tour director was amazing - highly professional, knowledgeable, highly competent, pleasant and courteous. Quite remarkable all she had to do in three days. An excellent tour which we would readily recommend.Read full review
Bindlestiff Tours Were Fantastic - You Have to Take This Tour! We booked this tour as part of a holiday to the USA. Although the Summer tour would have had longer daylight hours and a few more sights, the timing of the winter tour suited us.. better. The hotels were quaint and nice and quiet, within walking distance of everything we needed. The staff were absolutely fantastic. Our tour guide Jenni was super friendly and very knowledgeable. She was a great driver also which put my mind at ease. All the sites visited were amazing. If you have the time I'd do the longer tour so you can spend more time at each location, but if you're doing a flying visit, try this one. It's worth every dollar!Read full review

Everyone who wants to make a quick trip and see as much as possible - this is your chance! We saw so many beautiful places in such a short amount of time, but we still had enough time to explore. Great experience!
My 3 boys and I took part in the Canyon tour, which was a 3 day tour. Leah, our guide, was absolutely brilliant. Her knowledge, humour and guidance throughout the 3 days was outstanding. She has such a refreshing outlook on life and was an ..absolute pleasure to spend with. My boys were amazed at the sights we saw and how quickly the time passed. We all enjoyed the tour and we will be recommending your company and tours. Keep up the great work!Read full review
My grand daughter and I did the 3 day tour. We were blown away by the beauty of all locations. The camping version was great, however a tad cold, BUT with 2 sleeping bags each we were very comfortable. We were advised the night before the t..our left to pack warmer clothing. It was a full on tour, but once again, advised of this, so expected it. Our guide Corey was fantastic, a mine of information. If you are thinking of doing this tour, just DO IT. It is so worth it.Read full review
In just 3 days you can see some of the best parks in the Southwest. This tour involves a lot of driving to fit so much in those days but it works! I chose the camping tour, certainly a bit more uncomfortable but more rewarding. Camping in M..onument Valley or making a s’more in a freezing cold night are incredible experiences. The (big) cherry on the cake was our amazing tour guide Jon (aka Gordon Ramsay of s’mores). Be aware that even if it’s very hot in Vegas, it can get freezing cold in the parks so take with you some heavy clothes.Read full review
Group of 6 friends spent 7 days with Bindlestiff tours. Everything was perfectly organized and prepared, all bookings done.
Jen, the guide, was amazing - she is very dedicated and open to suggestions, clearly loves her job. She showed a p..erfect knowledge in various areas, the places we visited (Zion, Bryce, Antelope, Monument Valley, Moab), all sorts of general informations ( restaurants, shops , Indian culture, wild life - you name it). Can't find anything negative. Congrats.Read full review
100% Best Grand Canyon tour from Las Vegas with Monument Valley Bryce and Antelope Canyon
By: katy pau | Tue Oct 10, 2017 at 04.19 PM
Bindlestiff Tours is an amazing company offering outstanding tours with fabulous leaders. I can't say enough about this tour company. We booked direct and received an instant confirmation of the tour along with FAQ's, what to expect, what t..o bring etc. We received a reminder and also a weather update a few days prior to our tour which was super helpful. This company goes above and beyond. Every phone call i had with Becky in the office was fun- they are genuinely excited for you that you are going to see these beautiful parks. The parks are amazing and we had ample time in each without feeling rushed for walks and photos. We were offered a group BBQ on night one and a traditional Navajo taco meal in night two- both were delicious and the tacos authentic, even served up in a ladys Navajo home. The bus was super comfortable and the journeys interesting with commentary from our guide who also allowed for quiet time to snooze a little or to just gaze out of the window at the stunning scenery. We chose the camping option as we had seen photos of the sunrise in Monument Valley and were glad we did. The camp is literally on the rim as if you could reach out and touch the monuments. Sunrise was incredible and the tents were new, comfy and supplied with air mattresses. Antelope Canyon was out of this world as was the helicopter flight over the Grand Canyon. Highly recommend this company and we are already planning to return to take their new Bindlestiff Tours Western Canada Rocky Mountain tour next year.Read full review
