To me this was a waste of money. We didn’t get to “Ride down the strip” due to construction. We booked this tour esp for that. It was my daughter’s Sweet 16. Our guide knew this. He took us on the most boring ride, back streets, away from the strip, never stopped talking, told us things that were very boring, we ask for good photo ops if we were not going to be able to cruise the strip, he took us to Allegiant (after we said we were NOT sports fans). Never made it to The Mirage for the volcano or to the Bellagio fountains. Tour was supposed to be 3 hours, ours was only 2. We finally ask for him to let us out and we walked the strip so that my daughter could enjoy her sweet 16 and get some fun pics. Welcome to Vegas sign was the highlight of this trip.

The helicopter is an absolute must when touring the grand canyon. The views are amazing. There is nothing I could say to explain or describe how worth the money this tour was. If you are on the fence..JUST DO IT!!! We were picked up and dropped off at the front entrance of our hotel. Our tour guide for the day was Paul. He was hilarious. We had a fantastic time. We were a group of 4 and had a private tour.
