What people love about USA Tours in December
- National Parks Winter Tour
I was traveling with my wife & two adult children. The short version is I would do this trip again & highly recommend it to others. I have listed the following details for further consideration: COMMUNICATION: when considering this tour with other companies, BINDLESTIFF separated themselves with how quick they answered any question & addressed any comments (we) had... GROUP: had the maximum of (14) tourist from all over the world. We were the only ones from the "states," not counting our tour guide, who did an excellent job getting everyone involved. This really added to this tour...watching adults see & play in the snow for the first time. Priceless. SITES: Rt 66 souvenir shops, Grand Canyon rim walk & look-outs, Monument Valley, Horse Shoe Curve, Glen Canyon Dam, Zion... AWESOME! Our tour guide did a great job in keeping everyone moving along, BUT not feeling rushed or hurried. The ANTELOPE CANYON is listed as "optional," I highly recommend that you do this. It is well worth the extra cash. TOUR GUIDE: Turned out to be Mike L., who we had on another day tour with this company about a year or two ago. As last time, Mike seems to sincerely like his job & his enthusiasm & desire to share information is contagious...often getting the whole group going.
- Best of Utah & Arizona National Parks
Truly an outstanding tour. Our guide was knowledgeable of the area and had wonderful contacts that augmented the experience. We would not hesitate to go with TourRadar on our next adventure.

Recent visitors note the conditions are particularly good for outdoor activities with one traveler sharing "perfect hiking weather in Sedona during December."
What special events and festivals can I experience in USA during December?
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.
