MaxTour did it again with outstanding service! Brian provided an incredible, personable Death Valley National Park tour! Hotel pickup was timely and quick. He ensured a relaxed pace at each stop and provided insightful history. We were also well-supplied with plenty of water and snacks throughout the long day. This consistently excellent third time experience highlights top-tier service! Maddy

Excellent exerience of the Death Valley We booked our Death Valley tour with Max Tours, the website was easy to use and we ended up booking 3 tours in total. The communication was excellent and picking up from any hotel in Vegas was a bonus.
Our tour guide Corey, was beyond brilliant, knowledegable, fun, experienced, helpful & attentive - she had it all. Plenty of water and snacks supplied for the journey and an air conditioned van. Small group of 12 (including Corey).
The schedule and planned stops were breath taking and I feel we had plenty of time at each location for photos, exploring and taking in the views. We paid for the extra star gazing tour and it was fantastic to end a great day under the night sky and even seeing shooting Stars! Totally recommend! Mr & Mrs Toms from Hertfordshire, England.

I highly recommend Max Tour.
I spent a long time choosing a company to organize our trip, and I’m so glad I chose them! We were also very lucky with our guides! We took a 3-day tour from Las Vegas with Jim, as well as a trip to Death Valley to watch the sunset and stargaze with Moma!
Everything was so well-organized, on time, and executed to the highest standard, yet at the same time so heartfelt, easygoing, warm, and friendly!
It was an unforgettable trip!Thank you so much!!
I wholeheartedly recommend them!
And I wish Max Tour and its wonderful team every success and prosperity!
You are incredible!

By far the best tour I’ve ever been on. Our guide, Death Valley tour with sunset and stargazing ✨ Corey, was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely funny. Her themed music choices added such a fun and immersive touch, and truly enhanced the entire experience. She went above and beyond by sharing extra insights beyond the standard tour information. We had an amazing time and would absolutely book another tour again in the future!

Beware when choosing hotel pickup Was a great day out to Death Valley with Carl but be prepared for a 12 hour day. My itinerary said light breakfast and there were plenty of snacks and cold drinks but stopped at a service station for Coffee. Plenty of toilet stops. I'd say the scenery was better than the Grand Canyon.
I've only given 3 points because of the awful pickup and drop off situation. I was staying in the south of the strip and the day before they decided they weren't picking up at my hotel. I had to make my way at 0615 in the dark to the MGM Grand meeting point which was up a back street outside a multi storey car park! They did give me a list of other hotels in the same area and on hindsight I should have chosen one of those so I could wait in the lobby. I was very lucky as there was someone else there who could use their phone as the pickup was 25 mins late. It was very stressful and scary. All the couples seemed to get picked up at their hotels! Not good planning at all. I'd recommend but make sure if you are on your own you choose a lobby pickups.
