Touristy but not too touristy… good tips on how to navigate the grounds efficiently. I’d probably not do the Skywalk. - Great time with Milton as the guide. Great views, clear communication, fun day out of Vegas. Easy to book. I would probably not do the Skywalk again bc can get good photos yourself in other locations.

Would recommend! - Absolutely amazing tour! Mrs. America was a phenomenal tour guide and was very knowledgeable about the history of Las Vegas and the Grand Canyon. She really did make this trip so much fun and we can't thank her enough. As for the tour itself, there wasn't a time where I felt bored. Whether it was the scenery we viewed from the air-conditioned tour bus, or the multiple different stops at the Grand Canyon (Eagle and Guano Point), Hoover Dam, Joshua Tree Park, or even the rest stops, we were engaged and excited about where we were going next. I definitely recommend this tour for absolutely everyone as it is not all that strenuous and I saw many kids and elderly having fun. 10/10

Awesome tour - Carlitos was really funny and helpful. I would recommend taking this tour. Just rush a bit at the eagle point because it gets crowded.

Excellent Tour - The bus is very confortable. The views beautiful and very interesting. We were able to take many photos. Our guide, Milton, is excellent. Very attentive, respectful and friendly. His explanations were very clear and accurate. The tour was on June 5, 2024 and my birthday is June 6. Very attentive, he invited the passengers to sing Happy Birthday to me and they did. As for the schedule, very good, punctual. Overall, a magnificent tour. I recommend it.

Good place to see Grand Canyon - Excellent tour with very friendly driver/tour guide.
West side of Grand Canyon is worth to visit if you don’t want long drive to other Grand Canyon.

Bad information - The guide was not clear about the food and we paid for it, but they did not give it to us. It was a long trip. I tried to request a partial refund or coupon and was denied

Poor Tour Operator Service - While the Grand Canyon, Joshua Tree Forest, Hoover Dam, and our driver Carrrrrrlllllliiiiito were great, I cannot recommend this tour operator.
The A/C on the back of the bus was not operational causing a passenger to vomit before we were 10 miles into the trip. We had to return to the operator’s garage to get a new bus—all this was handled professionally. However, one of the college age family got sick from this event and left from the garage with her brother helping her and didn’t take the tour. The remaining 7 of us continued.
The tour operator was unwilling to recognize their part in causing one patron to become ill and how this impacted our family member. They refused a refund for the two who didn’t complete the tour. It’s unfortunate that our family trip was not what we hoped.
