Americans, go see America! (4d Yellowstone and Tetons out of Salt Lake City)
This was my first Bindlestiff experience, and certainly won't be my last! What an incredible and unique way to experience our National Parks. My group consisted o..f 10 wonderful people from all over the globe, most of whom were solo travelers like myself! Annie Grace was a phenomenal tour guide! While the weather wasn't always optimal, Annie made sure we had everything we needed to stay safe and comfortable. We covered so much ground in just 4 days, and saw so much unbelievable scenery and wildlife. The trip of a lifetime.Read full review
The entire experience was great!! Absolute value for my money. Right from the tour guide to the places chosen to my tourmates and the food and other arrangements, everything was perfect. Am planning to do many more with them. Thank you bind..lestiff and tourradar.Read full review
Great camping trip! Everyone in the group worked well together to help each other put up tents and cookdinner. Our leader Kit did a great job leading the group. He was organized and knowledgeable about the park. I feel like we accomplished ..and saw so much in 4 days. Can't wait for my next Bindlestiff tour :)Read full review
Great Trip!! I am just trying to figure out how to live in regular time after Wyoming/Montana time. Chris was a wonderful guide, fun, understanding, kind and knowledgeable. I believe we were really lucky to have him. I could only imagine wh..en he dropped the last of us off that he sighed a sigh of relief. We were lively!! He was great about getting our collective input and really good about asking if any of us needed restroom breaks! We saw a lot of animals in the wild, in Yellowstone, bears, including a grizzly, moose, elk, bison, antelopes and more. No shy wolves, but we did get to see them at the sanctuary. The Tetons were breathtaking. The camping was great and we all got to participate in the meals which was a lot of fun. The age range probably with a guess was mid 70’s to 20. I am a mid 50’s woman and I thought I would be different. I can assure you I was not, but everyone connected, even with age and life experience differences. I felt very safe travelling alone with this group…..no need for the mace that I bought in the desert….that is another story. I wasn’t sure when I booked the trip through a tour search engine if any of it was real……but LOL…….it was. I communicated with operator a number of times and I found them to be great, real people sitting in real office in Vegas. The best of luck with your decision.Read full review

Chris P, our guide, was great! He was a lot of fun, organized, considerate, experienced and flexible to the group's needs and wishes. His intuition to spot wild animals was on point! We saw bears, bison, bald eagles, moose, etc. Bring binoc..ulars. The sites we visited were all BREATH-taking! Great selection of places in four days. Hiking was manageable. Hiking boots with ankle support recommended. Sleeping in a tent, cooking dinner at camp sites, and preparing sandwich/fruits/salad for lunch at local parks were memorable! Bring layers of clothes. It can get very cold at night and early morning. The BEST part of the trip was that my son and I had so much laughs with people who were strangers on Day one and became friends on Day four. This was my second trip with this operator. Highly recommended!!Read full review
Amazing trip to National Parks (Yellowstone & Grand Teton) in Montana/Wyoming! Each day, the guide made it possible to explore tens of incredible places in addition to the standard touristic spots, not forgetting to enjoy untouched flora an..d fauna and to spot wild animals. Camping was comfortable, a large variety of fresh food was proposed for breakfast/launch/dinner, sleeping bags kept warm even on relatively cold nights, driving was not exhausting due to many stops and the transport was suited well for a group of 12.Read full review
We had a fantastic 7 day trip to Yellowstone, Grand Tetons & Bryce. Our guide was informative and super friendly. The campsites had great views and overall, the trip was spectacular! Highly recommend!
This tour was perfect for our family - including our 2 adult kids (age 23 & 25). The group size is
good - no more than 14. Our guide Chris really made the trip ideal. He
was entertaining, knowledgeable, and courteous. He went out of his w..ay
to make sure each guest was enjoying the experience. Our one afternoon
of free time he spent driving up and down main street in Moab offering
to pick up and drop off guests since the heat was so intense. He always
was there when you needed him! We used the hotel option and were happy
with the accommodations. We never had to deal with check in or check
out. The luggage was already in the room when we arrived at each
location. The extra options are worth it. We went on the Hummer ride in
Moab and a helicopter ride over the Grand Canyon. Both were exceptional.
Due to Covid some events had to be shuffled but we never had to deal
with any problems - Chris took care of everything. We would definitely
recommend the tour and hope to go on another tour in the
future!Read full review
This tour was so good that after I took my godson 3 years ago, I took my adult daughter this time. The sites are amazing. Zion, Bryce, Dead Horse, Canyonlands, Arches, Monument Valley, Horseshoe Bend, Grand Canyon including the helicopter r..ide. It was a hot week with temps near 100 sometimes and our guide Joel Clark showed us some nice places to cool off. During the drives from place to place, Joel shares his knowledge of the local history of the Southwest including the Navajo, cowboy culture (art and literature) to present day Vegas throughout the trip. He provides insight to the area with his geological discussions of the rock formations and the plant and animal life. Camping in tents was very comfortable and listening to Joel play his guitar and sing around the campfire on a cool evening made this all a spectacular trip. Finally, this trip was at the end of June 2020 when Covid restrictions were in place and they did a great job following the guidelines. Thanks Joel for another amazing trip. PS Joel was my guide on the first trip also and both trips were really uniquely awesome.Read full review
100% Geyser, Glacier, Grand old time with Bisons in line
By: Anonymous | Fri Sep 20, 2019 at 12.00 AM
An efficient itinerary using Salt Lake City as a gateway (one of the cheapest airport to fly to), though a longer drive for our guide Alex.
We did hiking - up the glacier lake overlook and canyon vista, down the river bank; swimming - again..st river chill while soaking in hot spring. Some of us had a crash course of very first camping experience, trying to fit in a sleeping bag. Lunch on the go with hearty tasty dinner cooked every day. Starry night, surrounded by invisible (occasional audible) wildlife buddies, we savored wine, tea, played game by the camp fire. Breakfast is important for most and there were variety of options for us to choose. Though we were rushing every morning to eat, I wish we could get up earlier to see at least one sunrise.
Alex, the most knowledgeable tour guide I've met, introduced us on wide-ranging topics, from geology, forestry, wildlife, to history, all while driving and without referring to a hard copy. There were facts and figures published to educate, also anecdotes and speculations to entertain (or scare some fainthearted).
I only wish longer time spent in Yellowstone. If Grand Canyon is a Yang to top all the national parks, Yellowstone is a Yin with billowing steam exuding everywhere in sight, provoke all imaginations wild and eerie.

Travelled with them on the 7 day SW National Parks lodging tour AND the 7 day Yellowstone Camping tour Both had fantastic well thought out itineraries which allowed us to choose the hikes that we wanted and pack in as much as we could in th..ose 7 days. Also the tour leaders (Marie and Chris) were great and added to the enjoyment of the tour in their own unique ways. Highly recommendedRead full review
The seven day tour takes in some must see destinations. Outstanding tour. In hindsight I should have gone for lodgings rather than camping as the weather in spring can get cold at night.
100% Best Tour Ever! Yellowstone Tour from Las Vegas with Bindlestiff Tours, 7 Days- Beth Cobbler
By: Anonymous | Thu Feb 28, 2019 at 03.16 AM
I completed this tour in 2018 and it was hands down the best tour I have ever taken! WOW! The parks are amazing, that goes without saying and I have photos and memories to last a lifetime. Bindlestiff Tours was a pleasure to deal with- they.. communicated with me quickly and professionally prior to my tour with accurate and useful information. We even received a packing list and weather update a week or two out. Our tour guide was exceptional. Extremely knowledgeable and gave plenty of in depth area information which was both entertaining and interesting! At each location we were given ample time to explore ether at our own leisure or as part of the out group- the guide always made sure that all of our interested and walking abilities were catered for. Great food, great company, I enjoyed the small group aspect of the tour with only 14 guests it made it easy to make new friends and we had some great evenings together around the campfire. I am vegetarian and was fully catered for. This company really does care! The bus was brand new and extremely spacious and comfortable and the camping gear was of a very high level with air mattresses supplied for added comfort. Overall a phenomenal tour and we will definitely be traveling with Bindlestiff Tours again - THANK YOU!Read full review
