We joined a two-day tour to the Grand Canyon, Route 66, and Antelope Canyon, and it was an absolutely amazing experience! The tour started at 6 AM with pickup directly from our hotel and finished around 7 PM on the second day. Breakfast was included, along with unlimited snacks and drinks throughout the two days, which was such a nice touch. We also ended our first day with an incredible stargazing experience—see the photos!

Our tour guides, **Kuan and Tim**, were both incredibly friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. They shared interesting history about each location, as well as background information about the different states we traveled through. They were also very helpful with taking photos for us at each checkpoint, so we could really capture all the memories!

We highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to visit these amazing sights. A special shout-out to **Kuan**, who kept his energy high and took great care of everyone from the very beginning of Day 1 until the end of the trip. He handled all the unexpected situations calmly and professionally, and really went above and beyond to make sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying the experience.

One more thing that really impressed us was the customer service after the tour. I accidentally left my phone in the tour vehicle, but Max Tour replied to our email very quickly, checked the vehicle, and let us know that we could pick it up the next morning. The staff even charged my phone for me, which was incredibly thoughtful and helped me start my next day without any stress!

10/10 experience!! Highly recommended!

Fantastic day out - definitely worth the heat! ★★★★★ We were a family of six from the UK and did the Death Valley tour from Las Vegas on 6th August 2026. We knew going in the first week of August might be a little crazy because of the heat, but it was the only time that fitted into our holiday — and we’re so glad we went!
Yes, it was very hot, but Death Valley was absolutely incredible and the experience was definitely worth the uncomfortable temperatures. It was one of those days we’ll all remember from our holiday.
Our guide Brian was fantastic. He was really knowledgeable, friendly and made the whole day enjoyable. He also did everything he could to help us cope with the heat, including providing cooling towels, iced water and snacks, which were very much appreciated!
Overall, it was a tremendous day out and one of the highlights of our trip. We would definitely recommend the tour, and if you’re considering going in the summer, don’t let the heat put you off — just come prepared!
Thank you, Brian, for making our Death Valley trip such a memorable experience! experience! 🏜️☀️🌵💦🇺🇸❤️

An excellent trip very well organised. Despite leaving Las Vegas in an August heat wave the temperature was very manageable with a sun hat and clothing and air-conditioned bus and plentiful supplies of chilled drinks and snacks always available. The sites are stupendous in their own right and we crammed in as much as is possible in three days! Ken our guide was always willing to go the extra mile including taking us out to try stargazing one evening helping out with lost cards et cetera taking photos and stopping off for brief extra viewing points en route. Information provided was good and response to questions was prompt before the trip. I highly recommend this three day Grand Canyon tour.

Our tour guide, Justin, was extremely attentive and professional. From the beginning to the end of the trip, he carefully looked after every traveler’s needs and did his best to provide assistance, making everyone feel well cared for and at ease.

He thoughtfully prepared information about the lunch and dinner restaurants, including menus and special highlights, allowing us to not only enjoy the beautiful scenery but also experience the local cuisine. In addition, he specially arranged an extra stargazing session, which added an unforgettable memory to the journey.

The two-day, one-night itinerary was very smoothly organized, with perfect timing throughout, allowing us to fully enjoy the experience. We are truly grateful for Justin’s hard work and long hours of driving, while still continuously ensuring the safety and comfort of every passenger.

This was a truly memorable trip. Thank you, Justin, for your dedication and care, which made this such a wonderful experience!

Beautiful Death Valley This is full days excursion, mid morning pickup and a very late drop off.
The transport is comfortable with good air conditioning and has lots of water, sodas and snacks onboard.

Our guide for the day was Jeff, another fantastic guide and driver, he was also really knowledgeable about Death Valley. It takes about 2 hours to get to the outskirts of the park, stopping at gas stations to use the restrooms.

We went to the visitor centre where we found out more information about the valley and had a short video. We visited different points throughout the park for photo opportunities, the Inn at Death Valley which is a fantastic hotel in the middle of an oasis, and the shops at Furnace creek.

We traveled to Dante’s point for the star gazing. We stayed for a while taking shots of the sky, it was windy and the temperature turned cooler going down to 66 degrees from 112 during the day. The journey home took about 3 hours and was after midnight when we returned to Vegas.

Death Valley is amazing, beautiful scenery and a beautiful sky full of stars. We didn’t see the Milky Way but it didn’t spoil the trip. It’s a pity we didn’t see Dante’s point in the day light as the photos on the net are out of this world.
