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
My wife and I did that Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bend day tour. The reservation and pickup process was great but the shuttle ride was far too uncomfortable to be sitting in for 10 hours. The seats make airplane seats seem like a luxur..y recliner. I can't stress how uncomfortable the seats are: the seats do not recline, have very little and hard padding, and have a very uncomfortable seat belt. You almost have to try to it understand how miserable we were.
As for the destination, we really liked Horseshoe Bend but I was somewhat disappointed in Upper Antelope Canyon. The pictures you see online are not what it really looks like, they tell you when you get there to use certain types of filters to make your pictures look that way. Also, the whole tour was just about how to get pretty photos. I would have preferred to have learned a bit about the place but I guess that's what you get in this social media age.
Overall, the people and process through tours4fun was great, it was just the destination and comfort that were disappointing.Read full review
This is our first time taking a tour with"tours4fun". My husband and I really enjoy it; however the reservation was a little complicated. I recommend booking before you leave the house, giving it some time to email back and forth.
We were ..picked up at 4:45 am and driven straight to Page, in a comfortable big van with 10 more people (be prepared for a long drive). Jack, the driver speaks both Chinese and English, instructed us all information and rules so we knew what to expect at each stop (no tour guide on bus). There will be tour guide going with you to the Antelope.
The Upper Antelope was awesome, more beautiful to be seen with our own eyes than looking at pictures. Horseshoe Bend was nice but not that exciting if you have been to the Grand Canyon.
We plan to take the Lower Antelope the next time we come back in the area, and surely will book the tour with "tour4fun".Read full review

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
Enjoyable 3 day tour. Wonderful scenery. Mike was a great guide. Only myself (David Skerman) and 2 others on this particular tour. Overnight accommodation good. Helicopter flight over Grand Canyon a must do. Monument Valley and the 4WD tour.. with Indian Guide amazing. Added the Antelope Canyon tour. Definitely worth it for the scenery. I would highly recommend this tour. Thanks Mike.Read full review
I have recently done the 3 Days Winter Tour to the Grand Canyon, Monument Valley, Antelope Canyon, Horseshoe Bend and Zion National Park and can highly recommend it! Mike, our tour guide, did an awesome job, giving us great insights about t..he places we visited. Thanks to his fun stories and the beautiful scenery also the drives between the places flew by quickly. Our group, consistent both of families and individual travellers, bonded very well thanks to the great and relaxed atmosphere Mike created. The trip was well-organized, non-rushed and a great way to see the highlights around Las Vegas with a small group!Read full review
I did this tour with my husband and 2 adult sons, in the final week of a 5 week trip to USA from Australia. It was definitely a highlight of our time in USA; not only were the sites remarkable, but our tour guide Mike (Shaggy) was the best-.. funny, knowledgeable, enthusiastic, endearing. He also punched above his weight in doing everything possible to accommodate and care for my son when he was ill. We all fully recommend this tour- brilliant.Read full review
We travelled with our 2 adult sons. There were only 4 others on the tour. Our tour guide Mike was incredibly knowledgeable, funny, and friendly. He went beyond his job description in looking out for our son when he became ill. We highly rec..ommend the tour which was amazing. We were lucky with the weather in mid-January, sunny skies and low numbers of other tourists.Read full review
It was a great trip! We were a group of 10 people, in a comfortable van. Day one covered Grand Canyon, day 2 Monument Valley, and day 3 Antelope Canyons and Zion. The visits generally did not felt rushed, providing opportunities not only to.. take pics, but to take a breather and relax. I should further add that our tour guide Mike made this trip much better than just a good trip. He was contagiously happy and a tourist at heart!Read full review
I recently did 2 tours with Bindlestiff and both with the same tour guide, Michael, aka “shaggy”. The first tour I did was Death Valley and the second tour I did a day later was the 3 day national parks tour. I have to say that not o..nly am I impressed with how Bindlestiff operate and the professionalism, and what is included the tours, but Michael was one of the best guides I’ve ever had. He was knowledgeable, friendly, funny, patient, and he tried to get to know all of us individually and what interested us. He always went out of his way in everything he did for us. Nothing was ever a bother to him. You can tell he loves his job and is passionate about what he is showing us, as well as the environment and keeping it as unspoiled as possible. He put up with each of our quirks and nothing was ever a bother to him. I collect fridge magnets from everywhere I travel and ensuring l always had access to a gift shop was never a bother to him. We had a great group, and really bonded, and I know we all thought very highly of Michael. Thank you again!Read full review
The tour was ok but it is important to read all about it!
They only drive you to the places they say. but if you think (as I did) that the price of the tour in the anthelope canyon is included you are wrong, you have to pay other 55dollars.., if not you would have made a 4 hour trip and nothing else.Read full review
