Trip was fantastic. We had visited several of the parks in prior years on our own....There was so much to learn and see that we missed previously. Highly recommend this trip
Joyce B
Smartours is a tremendous value for the price. We went to exactly the places I wanted to see and the planning was very intuitive. We really liked the small size of the group and were able to know everyone's name within a day or so. The guide and bus driver were exceptionally well prepared and added to the overall experience in a very positive way.
Dee
Just returned from this tour. It was fabulous. Lots of parks included and much learned! Our guide Stacey and driver Joe were both amazing, kind and knowledgable. Would have preferred extra day in Zion and Bryce to allow for full hikes to Narrows and to canyon floor, respectively. Also wish there was an optional horseback ride in Monument Valley. Saw so many interesting out of the way places like old Route 66 and Glen Canyon dam. Great trip!
