I wasn’t 100% sure about doing the tour experience because I’m not one who usually enjoys meeting strangers but this tour was all planned out for me so my lazy side went ahead and booked it. I ended up having such a great time!! Our tour guide, Joel, was definitely a 10 out of 10 and our group of travelers were from all over the world. My husband and I got to share these beautiful places with new friends.
All the hotels were safe and clean, food was tasty, and the van was reasonably comfortable. Joel was a plethora of interesting information and the tour was well organized without feeling rushed. I would definitely recommend this tour, our guide Joel, and Bindlestiff Tours.

I don't like long rides, but the bus was comfortable and arrived right on time. The rides between stops were one or two hours, and the time moved along nicely, as the tour guide, named Indy, had us all fully engaged with stories and histories of where we were going. He was very knowledgeable, and the rides were a lot of fun. Everything, including the hotels and meals, went off without a single hiccup.
Indy persuaded me to take the helicopter tour of the Grand Canyon, which I hadn't planned to take, but he was right, and I'm glad I took it.
He engaged us in such a way that when we all went to our respective rooms for the nights, everyone came together for dinner, rather than going off as couples or singles. Then, while touring the canyons and trails, everyone chose to stay together, like a big family. This added to the experience in a positive way, and I can see how the tour guide made this all happen. He really solidified his group, and we all became good friends. After the tour ended with a trip back to the Mirage in Las Vegas, we all got together on our own, for dinner and drinks at The Venetian, where the wine was excellent, as wine often is when consumed with good friends. It was a memorable evening after a memorable three-day trip. Everyone has kept in touch, exchanging photos and Instagrams and stuff.
We were dubious about finding a tour group and guide that were reputable, and we feel lucky to have found Bindlestiff and Indy. We have already decided to take another trip next year with the same organization. This tour met all our expectations, and really surpassed them, and I highly recommend Bindlestiff.
