When you visit Las Vegas, you are probably going to be approached by numerous people advertising tours of the Grand Canyon. You will probably also notice many signs and billboards advertising these tours, and mentioning that they only take a few hours to get to the canyon from your hotel room. While this is certainly convenient sounding, you may be disappointed to find out that these tours are not going to the Grand Canyon National Park. Instead, they are going to a portion of the Grand Canyon that is controlled by Navajo Nation, and while it is still technically the Grand Canyon, it is not the one you have probably seen in books and magazines. The Grand Canyon National Park is an area that is roughly 4.5 hours drive from Las Vegas, and is well worth the extra miles because of it’s scenic beauty and plethora of things to do. For many years, people have been visiting not just the Grand Canyon, but this particular area of the Grand Canyon because of it’s stunning views.
Bindlestiff Tours offers numerous packages that will visit the Grand Canyon as part of a multi-park multi-day tour, or as part of a private tour that can be booked for a small group. The private tours can be single day, although it is far better to use the driving time to stay for a few days and visit multiple parks. All of the national parks of the southwestern United States have their individual qualities and attractions, so if you are going to go as far as to drive for more than a few hours to visit one, you should make the best use of your time and visit more than one. The parks are closer together than they are individually from Las Vegas, so you can essentially make a “tour loop” that will use the first park as the first stop and then move on to the next, instead of coming back in between. We have several tours that take a few days with camping in between that will allow you to experience several of the great parks in the area as well as the Grand Canyon. The real decision is how many parks do you want to see, and how much time do you have?
Bindlestiff Tours is one of the most trusted names in national parks tours from Las Vegas, and we are well known for both our attention to detail as well as our unique tour style. Our packages are “adventure tours” which means that we want to get you out there interacting with the environments, learning about what makes them unique and exploring them the way that you want to. Too many tour companies simply put you in a bus and drive you past the sights, so we created tours that get you into it, exploring and enjoying the areas the way that they did thousands of years ago. Once you take a Bindlestiff Tour, you will not want to ever take a regular tour again. Contact us directly for details!
