We joined the two-day Antelope Canyon tour, and Jim was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. When my daughter wasn’t feeling well, he did his best to accommodate her and make things easier for our family. He also navigated around a traffic jam so we didn’t miss our Antelope Canyon visit. The entire trip was fun, comfortable, and well organized. I highly recommend this tour.

Ken guided our tour and made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. He was very approachable and made sure we saw some truly beautiful locations, giving us plenty of opportunities for great photos—he even helped by taking some excellent ones himself. Along the way, he shared interesting insights about each stop, which added a lot of value. He also went out of his way to include a few extra bonus stops, all while managing the schedule efficiently so nothing felt rushed. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and we couldn’t have asked for a better tour.

This was an absolutely fantastic five-star tour with Max Tours. We were picked up early in the morning at 7:00am by our guide, Chad, and I can honestly say I have never seen enthusiasm like it at that time of day. From the moment we stepped onto the bus, Chad’s energy, positivity, and passion set the tone for what turned out to be an exceptional day.

The bus itself was extremely comfortable, spacious, and very well presented. The tour included plenty of complimentary refreshments, all provided free of charge, which really added to the overall experience and showed great attention to detail.

Chad took us to some incredible locations, including the stones, Hoover Dam, and on to the Grand Canyon. Throughout the entire journey, his knowledge was outstanding, informative, engaging, and delivered in a way that kept everyone interested. You could tell he truly knows his stuff.

His driving was safe and reassuring, and the tour was very well paced, with plenty of pit stops along the way to stretch your legs and stay refreshed. Everything was thoughtfully planned and professionally delivered.

Chad is without a doubt an asset to any company he works for. If we ever use Max Tours again, we will definitely be asking if Chad is available to lead the tour. A truly fantastic day from start to finish.
