The number of times I said, "WOOOOOW!" on this trip was insane. I couldn't get over the natural features of the landscape. Naala was so informative, attentive, and thoughtful. She made sure to communicate with me through the sixteen-hour trip (it was just the two of us.) I had the chance to see Red Rocks, Chapel of the Holy Cross, Sedona, scenic HWY 89a, Oak Creek Canyon, Flagstaff, and Horseshoe Bend at the Golden Hour and oh boy this is a trip that'll be hard to forget. On our way back to Phoenix, I tried sitting back and taking a nap, but I couldn't stop envisioning the beautiful scenery I had seen. Naala, thank you for a fantastic experience that I'll never forget, YOU ROCK and I'LL BE BACK!

I had such a good experience last year I brought my family back to Vegas just to take some Bindlestiff tours. We went to Death Valley with Tim and it was phenomenal. We all had a great time. It’s basically a sampler platter of quick experiences but that’s perfect for a family with kids. We got to see so much packed into one day. Tim is an excellent guide: friendly, knowledgeable, passionate. The van is very comfortable with plenty of cold water, and lots of restroom stops if you need that. I highly recommend this tour when you’re in vegas, you won’t regret it.

Flying over the Grand Canyon offered great views because you not only saw it from overhead, but also viewed different areas of the canyon. The plane held around 8-10 people and all seats were on a window. One side of the plane had a better view than the other based on the direction of the flight. We went counter-clockwise on the tour, so the left side was always looking at the canyon. It is a small plane, so the ride was very choppy.
