What people love about Christmas & New Year Tours in USA
- Death Valley Day Tour from Las Vegas- Small Groups Tour
This was an outstanding trip. Jen our tour guide kept us all entertained with stories all day. The scenery on this tour is awesome and i highly recommend this trip.
Magnificent West - 8days is truly magnificent travel!!! Our tour guides sir Jacob and mam Patricia were very caring to us travelers, and yes! excellently knowledgeable on all the tourist/scenic spots that we have visited. With regard to the itinerary, it was perfect as well. How the tour guide managed our daily schedules were incredibly amazing and thus, I and my son are grateful because we really had fun and we enjoyed every single day during the travel. Sir Jacob and Mam Patricia were also reasonably strict (but very kind) in engaging with every traveler's punctuality which made this travel, a very wonderful one! I would highly recommend this travel package to my friends who want to experience the West. Thank you so much Tour Radar! Nel & Nikko
