Best Lake Powell Tours & Trips

Just a few flaws

Me and my boyfriend went on this tour about a week ago and we were not so impressed. For starters we were late being picked up, which didnt impress us to start. For the first three days while at the theme parks we were carted about in a uncomfortable vehicle with every driver we had on the tour using their mobile phones while driving. Not very proffessional. I know it is not the law out here but no matter how little you pay for a tour their main responsiblity is to keep you safe. We did not feel at all safe while booming it down the freeway with our driver being on the phone! There was also a lot of driving around involved. On one day we were picked up in a random car, taken to a housing estate (their offices or something) and left waiting in a car park for ages while we waited for another vehicle to pick us up. It was never very clearly explained to us what was going on ( a slight language barrier there). Also just a warning, do not stay at Ramada Commerce. It is in the middle of nowhere. There is nothing to do in the evenings ( there is only a Dennys and a garage) and there is no transportation in to the city. Not the sort of place you really want to stay on a holiday. The last days in Vagas and Grand Canyon were better. The tour guide made more of an effort which we appreciated, however the bus driver felt it was fine to talk on his mobile while operating a large coach, transporting 70 odd paying customers. Be warned though, you have to pay to do extra activities while there (which are quite pricey) , but if you dont there would not be much for you to do. I definately recommend you do the helicopter and boat ride, pretty incredible. Accomodation was very good in Las Vagas! Nothing to worry about there. One last thing. Make sure everyday you have cash on you for the service fee. They are quite demanding when it comes to collect there money. One day we forget to get money before we got on the bus and when we told him we would have to collect it when we got to the hotel, he laughed in our face and suggested he come up to our room to collect it!! i dont think so! Again not so proffessional. This is only our opinion but just a few words of warning, as we would have appreciated being warned of these things.

Highly recommend!

Joel & The Tours4fun team put together a memorable, informative and most enjoyable 3 day tour of the canyons. The time in the vehicle between the canyons and stops may have been long but Joel made sure we had enough rest stops to stretch our legs. He used the time in vehicle to share his wealth of knowledge and experience of the area and we felt it added significantly to the experience. It is alot of driving but completely worth it to see the spectacular sights. The accommodations booked for each night were more than comfortable, with great amenities and close proximity to resturants for the evening meal. The staff at each hotel were friendly and happy to help in any way. (my son left a parcel at our 1st hotel and due to the distances we travel, we could not return to collect it, but the hotel made a plan and sent it to our final desitination before flying home). The food was plenty and very tasty, the stand out lunch was definately the fry bread taco at Goulding's Stage Couch diner. The itinerary was amazing and covered everything and so much more. The stop for lunch on day 1 in Seligman and the historic Route 66 was fantastic. Having conversations with the townfolk (super friendly) and walking the streets was very enjoyable and so many opportunities for photos. We did the optional Helicopter ride and would highly recommend it to give you a view of the Grand Canyon that is unparalleled. That 1st sight of the Grand Canyon takes your breath away. The sunrise on day 2 from the north rim of the Grand Canyon was emotional and breathtaking. As you drive with a guide through the Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park later that day, you are transported back in time and Stephen our guide brought its history and people to life. Ending the day with sunset at Horshoe Bend gave me goosbumps and stunning photos, along with significant memories made. One of the highlights was walking through Antelope Canyon with our guide on the morning of day 3, it was mesmerising and we were awestruck by its beauty. The time spent in Zion National Park was exhilarating, we enjoyed lunch and then hiked to the Emerald Pools all the while enjoying the majestic mountains surrounding us. Photos do not fully capture the grandure and the majesty of Zion Canyon. All the while, Joel is exoanding our knowledge and minds with information about all the places we visted or even just drove past. I canot recommend this tour enough, if you can only choose one tour to do on your holiday, you have to do this one with Joel.

Good tour

This tour was the perfect getaway from Las Vegas. The early morning departures were totally worth it to see the natural wonders in the best light. Highly recommended!

Single travelers! Okay so I was nervous booking my tour cause I didn’t know who to book through, what was legit, and what was the safest. This was an amazing tour. I met a few people but I was also by myself a bit. The guide was kind, funny, and informing. Take a jumper for the bus, lovely bus but could be cold. Really safe, and I recommend this tour!
