7-Day National Parks Adventure Tour

Overall, I think this was a great trip for the value. We got to see a lot of amazing sights in a short amount of time. Clint, our driver, was the best. Very energetic and positive and drove thru very winding, narrow roads like a pro. Perry, our tour guide, was very organized and hard working. It is a bilingual tour for English and Mandarin speakers. I loved all the places we went to: Crazy horse memorial, Mount Rushmore, Devils Tower, Yellowstone, Grand Tetons, Great Salt Lake, Utah Capitol, Temple for Latter Day Saints, Arches, Vail and Red Rock Amphitheater. The only so so places were Colorado Capitol and 16th Street. I wish we could have gone to Canyonlands since it is so close to Arches but didn’t have time. I also wish Arches was in the morning. We went in the afternoon and it was very hot! I think Red Rocks should be on the first day of the tour so you can spend more time at Vail on the last day (they bring you back to Denver airport). The bus is very comfortable with spacious seating and you can charge your phone. The trip was very action packed. Some days we spent 9-11 hours on the tour bus so it may not be for everyone. However, you can take lots of pictures of the beautiful landscape of the American West from the majestic mountains against sprawling lakes and the neverending plains. The days were long and sometimes you were on the tour bus starting at 6:30am and ended the day around 8 or 8:30 pm. If you are looking for a relaxing vacation, this may not be a good fit. The hotel accommodations were okay. The hotels in West Yellowstone do not have elevators so maybe an issue for elderly people with mobility issues. The food in West Yellowstone is expensive since the city is open for only half the year. Overall, I loved this trip, had a great time and thought it was a good value for all the places we went to. However, it may not be for everyone for reasons I mentioned above.

We just returned from our Yellowstone tour, and it was an unforgettable experience. We visited so many incredible places, including Yellowstone National Park, the Grand Tetons, Jenny Lake, Grand Prismatic Spring, Yellowstone Lake, Mount Rushmore, Devils Tower, Arches National Park, Vail, and even the famous Red Rocks Amphitheatre. The scenery was breathtaking everywhere we went. Grand Prismatic Spring and Yellowstone Lake were my personal favorites, but the Grand Tetons were absolutely stunning as well. We saw tons of wildlife, including hundreds of bison, elk, prairie dogs, a bear, and even a fox walking the sidewalks in West Yellowstone! The tour was well organized, and it was wonderful not having to worry about driving through unfamiliar areas. We covered a lot of ground and saw places that had only existed in pictures and travel magazines for me before this trip. It was a busy and sometimes exhausting week, but every mile was worth it. If Yellowstone and the American West are on your bucket list, I highly recommend taking this trip. Perry our tour guide did a fabulous job keeping us informed. The memories and scenery will stay with me forever.❤️🦬⛰️

I am a seasoned traveler and usually opt for a private tour, but I couldn’t find such an option for this kind of trip. Booking this 7-day, 6-state, and 3-national-park expedition (including Yellowstone) through Viator was an excellent decision.Trip Highlights:: 1) Perfect Scenery: The weather was gorgeous, the driveways were incredibly scenic, and we were given plenty of stops and time to explore each location.; 2) Exceptional Staff: Our driver, Clint, and tour guide, Perry, went above and beyond. They genuinely cared about the customers, making the entire trip entertaining and highly enjoyable. 3) Great Atmosphere: The bus crowd was international, friendly, and very respectful of everyone's time. Overall, I totally recommend this trip if you want to explore the beautiful America. Mind-blowing!.

This tour covers a lot of ground in a few days. The amount of sites you see is phenomenal. However, the eating and sleeping arrangements are sub par. I realize hotels are expensive near tourist attractions but I would have rather paid more for better nightly accommodations with a breakfast included. Also, gas station eating is not the ideal situation for someone with a chronic health condition. I found it frustrating. The tour guide was very friendly but I would’ve loved more information on the mountain ranges we were driving by since I had never been in the area. We also would’ve loved the chance to do an optional Crazy Horse tour that could be taken up to the top of the Crazy Horse. (Higher than the CH bus took us) This was offered only in the late afternoon so maybe it was more a timing issue. The bus driver was great, humorous and informative. We felt very confident as he drove in rain and snow and over the mountains. All in all it was a good trip with some disappointing aspects.

A weeks worth of several activities and sightseeing every day. Leave the driving to someone experienced to handle the elements and relax and enjoy. Just be prepared to not have all meals provided.
