What people love about USA Tours in December
- Death Valley Day Tour from Las Vegas- Small Groups Tour
Death Valley was a dream trip come true. Bindlestiff tour guide and driver, Jenny, made sure we were picked up on time and ensured our comforts a long the tour. We saw amazing sites with plenty of time to get out and experience them close up. Lots of insight into the area. She knew locations that would ensure great views. I would highly recommend this tour with Bindlestiff.
- National Parks Winter Tour
"Awesome three days on road visiting earth's great natural wonders: Grand Canyon, Monument Valley, Zion National Park. Our tour Leader Ashley was very organised, efficient with the tour , always ready to answer to any of our queries/concerns. Would highly recommend to take this three day southwest national park tour with Bindlestiff, if get a chance."
- Mighty 5 From Las Vegas
Great tour. Scenery was spectacular. Our tour guide, Mike, was very accommodating, helpful, and knowledgeable of the area.

The country comes alive with holiday festivities in December. The Tournament of Roses Parade in Pasadena California stands out as a major attraction drawing crowds to see its flower-covered floats and live performances. Las Vegas transforms with seasonal entertainment including special winter shows at venues like the Luxor Hotel. New York City builds excitement throughout the month as Times Square prepares for its famous New Year's celebration. One visitor called the Rose Parade "a bucket list event and totally worth it."
Which hotels are recommended for USA December tours?
Several properties excel during the winter season. The Jekyll Island Club in Georgia becomes especially charming with its holiday décor while the Sheraton Maui Resort and Spa provides prime ocean views. The LINQ Hotel offers a central location on the Las Vegas Strip. Guest feedback consistently mentions the seasonal atmosphere with one visitor noting "The Jekyll Island Club was beautifully decorated for Christmas and provided an authentic historic experience."
What are the best National Parks to visit in USA during December?
Winter creates unique conditions in America's western parks. Yellowstone's geysers create ethereal scenes against the snow while Death Valley offers pleasant temperatures for exploring. The Grand Canyon often features snow along its rims creating exceptional photography conditions. Visitors regularly comment on the special winter atmosphere with one noting "The moisture in the air falls like diamonds in a sparkly haze - it's what many visitors come for. Wildlife sightings are world-class in the winter."
How crowded are major tourist attractions in USA during December?
December brings peak season crowds to destinations like Las Vegas and Hawaii particularly around the holidays. National parks however tend to see fewer visitors during this time. Tour operators emphasize booking early especially for popular spots like Waikiki Beach where properties such as the Outrigger Kona Resort reach capacity well in advance.
How far in advance should I book a USA tour for December?
Planning ahead is essential for December travel especially for tours featuring holiday events like the Tournament of Roses Parade or New Year's Eve in Las Vegas. Most operators suggest securing bookings 6-8 months ahead. This applies particularly to winter programs in national parks like Yellowstone. Tour companies report that December reservations often start filling up in March or April with premium holiday dates booking first.
