I had a great time on this tour in August '17. Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Park were amazingly beautiful. We visited a lot of attractions in Yellowstone in a short time span. Diana, our guide, was very knowledgeable and considerate... She provided the commentary on the bus before arriving at an attraction. Once you get down from the bus, you can go on the trail at your own pace within the time limit. The time provided is usually sufficient and everyone in our group was on time. Be prepared to walk around 18000 steps on the first day at Yellowstone. The hotels were decent. Pack your swimsuit if you still have the energy to swim in the hotels' pool at the end of the day. The tour guide and bus driver also made sure that we stop by grocery markets to get sandwiches/drinks, whenever we have to spend the next meal on the bus. Note that the tour was conducted mostly in Chinese as all the participants in my group were Chinese speakers. I recommend this for family (age-range in my tour as 6 to 70), especially if you want to avoid driving and planning your own trip.Read full review
This tour is amazing and fun, it's well worth the money. Leo our tour guide is very patient, kind and organized as well. Accomodations are pretty good, cant complain.
I joined three tours with this company, the death valley day tour, 7 day southwest highlights and 7 day yellowstone national park tour. Joel Clark was my tour guide on the death valley and 7 day southwest tour and Mike Brown on the 7 day ye..llowstone tour.
All three tours were amazing. I saw so much of the west coast and so many highlights including Antelope Canyon, Grand Canyon, Monument Valley, Zion and Bryce national park, Grand Teton, Yellowstone national park etc. Not to mention so many stories about the wild west. I chose the camping option on both 7 day tours and I really encourage choosing this option. You meet alot of people, you can learn how to setup camp if you never gone camping before, you get to be closer to nature and sometimes you can star gaze and possible see the Milky way (I saw it three days in a row).
Joel and Mike are one of the best tour guides I have ever met. They were professional, approachable and have a great personality.
Overall I really enjoyed all tours with Bindlestiff and I really recommend joining one of their tours especially if you are short on time.
You will definitely have fun and Bindlestiff tours will make your trip a memorable one.
Thank you Joel, Mike and Bindlestiff for making my USA trip a memorable one.
Hope to see you guys again in the future.Read full review
We had a great time!!! I gave the accommodations a 4 star rating BECAUSE our stay in Sheridan. At the hotel was a little ...um.....as our tour guide decribed...simple....room was very dated but it was clean...my bed was lopsided...but we we..re tired and went to bed. But I will tell you this..we came home super inspired and we still are awe struck on the things we saw and experienced. The tour is spoken in both English and Mandarin...no big deal...all the other hotel stays were very nice! Just relax...enjoy the simple things and have fun!Read full review

While it was a demanding itinerary, it was well worth it.I got my money's worth and left the driving to someone else. I would recommend this tour to friends and family. When I'm ready to visit the Grand Canyon and the N.P. of Utah, Tours4..Fun will be my go to site.Read full review
Days 1 to 7 were exceptional with Tony as our guide.
Day 8 was also very good with different guide who was helpful with last minute decisions.Day 9 was horrible starting with an angry driver. Very bad planning to the division of guests for.. the different drop off points in LA. Tour guide nor driver were very helpful. ######HAD AN UNPLEASANT NIGHT ON DAY 8 AT SELECTED HOTEL. HANDICAPPED ROOM IN STATE OF RENOVATION. SHOWER WATER WAS FLOWING IN TOILET AREA. SINK OVERFLOWING -WATER CLOGGED IN SINK. MENTIONED TO NIGHT MANAGER WHO TOLD US THAT WE HAD TO WAIT UNTIL THE MORNING. DID NOT MENTION TO TONY AS IT WAS LATE BY THE TIME OF DISCOVERY. My thanks to TONY and 2ND guide.Read full review
Great tour of National Parks! Our tour guide Ray and his wife took care of the group and the itinerary well, he was organized, friendly and very knowledgeable. Since there were a few of us English speakers amongst the Chinese tourists, he s..poke to us first. Jose the driver was also friendly and his bus was clean. I am recommending to my friends and family.Read full review
We got to see more that we would have if going on out own. Will probably not do a tour like this again. It was a little crazy (fast) to be in all those places. For what it was, it was planned out good. The mixed dynamics of this group was a.. bit wonky. The tour guide Alan was good. He tended to ramble on a bit especially in Chinese. We understand that each culture is different but some were very rude and he did not seem to mention this to them. (granted there were 50 on the bus and only 9 of us were not Asian). Rich was a wonderful driver.Read full review
Tour guide, Diana, was courteous, helpful and very nice. Her introduction and description of each phase of tour was clear and excellent both in Mandarin and English. She resolved the issues quickly and effectively and were always on top of ..them.Read full review
Beautiful scenic places, experienced and safe driver, the guide is experienced and responsible but not very caring, told us little information at the start. I think he was tired from working the previous trip and then our trip immediately. ..He improved later on. CTour should give the guides a rest before doing next trip. Tours4Fun should warn in the tour information that the 7 day trip may be challenging for frail elderly due to the nature of visits to different national parks and mountains, the visit to Antelope cave is very challenging for people with mobility issues.Read full review
We had a wonderful time on our tour, and I would recommend highly! Our only complaint was that the bathroom in the bus was out of order, but our driver and tour guide made this work by stopping frequently for bathroom stops. I would recom..mend this trip without reservation!Read full review
I just completed my 2nd Bindlestiff Tour and it was just as amazing as the first! This company is top notch. They are there for you from the moment you book until the sad time that the tour ends. The Bindlestiff Tours customer service team ..are amazing- they answer emails extremely quickly and answer all your questions before the tour so you know exactly what to expect.Both Bindlestiff Guides I have had have been great- full of knowledge, enthusiasm and are a constant source interesting facts and stories. The touring vehicles are super comfy and on both my tours brand new, the same as the gear- again top notch high quality making camping extremely comfortable. As for this tour itself, its expertly planned and executed to allow maximum time and enjoyment in the parks. We saw so much more than we expected and had tons of time to explore each park with some fabulous walks in each. Meals were great- healthy, plentiful and they cater for all kinds of diets! I can't say enough about this company and the high standard of tours- I am already planning to join their new Bindlestiff Tours Western Canadian Rockies tour in 2018. Thanks again!Read full review
