We got to see so much in a short time and that's thanks to Joe who kept us on schedule and fit in as much as he could for us. The trip was amazing and very well planned.
I took the 7-day camping tour to Utah national parks and Grand Canyon with Chris as my tour guide. It was my first time camping, Chris was very helpful at walking me through the process of setting up and disassembling the tent. By the end, ..I was able to do that by myself from the start to finish. It was a great camping experience. As for the tour we got to visit many beautiful sites. There are hiking options available for all levels. I would like to thank Chris for being such an excellent guide for making this trip as smooth as possible and attending to everyone's needs. I highly recommend this tour.Read full review
I had such and amazing experience on the 7 day Southwest trip! We saw so many breathtaking sights and every activity planned was curated to be how you wanted to experience it! Our tour guild, Chris, was very knowledgeable in offering sugges..tions for those who wanted challenging hikes to those who wanted to relax with being on vacation and everyone in between. I chose the camping option and really enjoyed meeting and interacting with everyone over campfires and s’mores I will definitely be back for another tour with the company!Read full review

We did the 3day Southwest Tour with Bindlestiff,in the August end, and I must say it was amazing.. Our guide,Jill,was very informative and we got to know a lot of things from her.. She took great care of us for all the 3 days. We took the h..otel option, and i must say, the stay was far better than we expected, especially, the sunrise that we saw from Golding’s Inn(Monument valley)will be a lifelong memory. Also the food at Golding’s is just so nice. Within three days you get to visit Zion National Park, Bryce Canyon National Park, Antelope Canyon, Monument Valley and Grand Canyon. So, if you are up for a packed program and ready to be on the road for 12 hrs everyday and want to visit all these places within a short period of time , just go with Tours4Fun.Read full review
This was our first camping trip and we couldn’t have chosen a better company, itinerary or guide. Joseph took excellent care of us. The pace was ideal for my mom, girls (9 and 10), and I. We saw the best of each location, enjoyed great me..als, and we have the awesome pics to prove it. Joseph went out of his way to make a campfire, and taught the girls the perfect way to make s’mores. He kept us entertained and educated, and shared a wealth of knowledge throughout the trip. The hoodoos at Bryce, topography of Zion, everything about Antelope Canyon and Monument Valley are a must-see, and the Grand Canyon helicopter tour ride was thrilling and beautiful! Joseph is the best! I’d definitely recommend this tour!Read full review
My girlfriend and I came back from a wonderful trip to the American Southwest with Chris Patrick ("Chrispy Patty") as our guide. The national parks are even more beautiful in real life than in photos. Moreso than the parks, for this review,.. I cannot say enough wonderful things about the planning and forethought that Chris put in to make the trip as memorable as possible. His extensive experience as a guide was evident as he had planned out every aspect of the trip, every problem was anticipated, and every scenario or obstacle had multiple back-up options. He made every effort to meet our varied needs (e.g. one member wanted oat milk for her coffee; he fit in a beautiful hike to a creek where we could all swim; he perfectly timed a sunset at dead horse canyon before the rush and to maximize the glow; and many many more). In addition, he was a funny and genuinely *good* guy and really brought the group together so that we were all friends right from the start. I have already recommended this trip to family, friends, and even strangers!Read full review
The best part of the tour for me was the Grand Canyon helicopter tour. We weren't even planning to go on it, but after our tour guide Joseph, explained how wonderful it is, my daughter changed her mind and booked the tour for us. (THANK YOU.. JOSEPH!). She, my granddaughters and I had such a wonderful time. I was afraid at first, because it was my first time in a helicopter, but the view! So spectacular! Monument Valley, Zion and Bryce were great as well. Our tour guide, Joseph made sure we had a good time every step of the way, and prepared everything for us. He guided us through our first sandstorm, and even took us to get the most delicious milkshakes on Route 66, on the way back to Las Vegas. Jill, another guide we met, who was leading another tour, was great as well. This was such a beautiful experience. I was very hesitant when I heard that we were camping and hiking for our vacation, but this tour far exceeded my expectations.Read full review
Joseph was an amazing tour guide for my trip to Zion, Bryce Canyon, Monument Valley, and Grand Canyon. You can feel his passion for traveling because of how special he made this trip for my group. He’s a really awesome dude that isn’t i..n it for the money, and he has inspired me to travel the world. Thank you Joseph!Read full review
I enjoyed every minute of this fast paced trip that goes to Zion, Bryce Canyon, Antelope Canyon, Monument Valley and the Grand Canyon. Our guide, Jill, was incredibly knowledgeable about the areas we were traveling. She was very organized a..nd kept everyone on track so we were able to see everything. It was a group of many different ages and abilities and she managed to make sure everyone was enjoying themselves. We opted for the hotel lodging instead of camping, but we did spend time at the campgrounds and they seemed clean and in good locations. I have taken many group tours before and I can say that Jill was amongst the best of my guides.
I also had several chances to interact with Becky and Cindy before the tour and found them to be very responsive. I had some flight issues that caused me to almost miss the tour and they were kind and sympathetic to my situation.
I would not hesitate to recommend this tour company to people of all ages. This particular tour was fast paced so be prepared for that if you sign up. However, I can assure you that you will not be disappointed in the destinations included on this tour.Read full review
This is actually a review of the Western USA National Parks Loop tour. I can't tell you how impressed I was both with the sites we saw along the way (i.e., Zion, Bryce, Lake Powell, Monument Valley, and the Grand Canyon) and the excellence ..of our guide Indy.
Imagine if Santa Claus lost a few pounds and decided to make a career change. That's Indy. He was always upbeat and always interesting, taking care to interact with every passenger and dealing with changing circumstances with aplomb. When it rained, Indy was quick to come up with Plan B, and if that didn't work out Plan C or D. He was always able to pivot and salvage a bad situation, making it look easy. He did all of this while juggling a demanding schedule, driving, and giving us plenty of extras along the way. Indy genuinely enjoys people, and it really comes across in the way that he treats his passengers.
I always felt safe when Indy was driving or leading a hike. He would make sure that the person trailing at the end of the group (usually me!) was looked after, either by waiting at a fork in the trail to make sure that no one missed the right turnoff or hanging back to be the "sweeper." Not all tour leaders do this, but the good ones do - and it makes a big difference.
Indy was very engaging and made everyone feel welcome. I feel incredibly luck to have had him as my tour leader.Read full review
Really breath-taking scenery. Our tour guide, Chris, is awesome as well. He took very good care us and made sure we were enjoying the tour to its fullest. Chris is a quality guide with lots of info. If you get him, you're lucky.

I recently took a trip with Bindlestiff. It was an awesome experience. The sites and the hikes were beautiful. Our guide was knowledgeable and helpful. I plan on using them again in the future and can’t wait for my next trip!
This tour was so good that after I took my godson 3 years ago, I took my adult daughter this time. The sites are amazing. Zion, Bryce, Dead Horse, Canyonlands, Arches, Monument Valley, Horseshoe Bend, Grand Canyon including the helicopter r..ide. It was a hot week with temps near 100 sometimes and our guide Joel Clark showed us some nice places to cool off. During the drives from place to place, Joel shares his knowledge of the local history of the Southwest including the Navajo, cowboy culture (art and literature) to present day Vegas throughout the trip. He provides insight to the area with his geological discussions of the rock formations and the plant and animal life. Camping in tents was very comfortable and listening to Joel play his guitar and sing around the campfire on a cool evening made this all a spectacular trip. Finally, this trip was at the end of June 2020 when Covid restrictions were in place and they did a great job following the guidelines. Thanks Joel for another amazing trip. PS Joel was my guide on the first trip also and both trips were really uniquely awesome.Read full review
