2 day, one hotel night trip. Had a great tour of these 3 sites. Jim was knowledgeable and did a great job. Snacks and drinks provided throughout the trip. Lots of pictures to take as well. Dress appropriately! 30 degree difference from Vegas and the GC( it actually snowed when we were at the GC.)

Wonderful Death Valley tour and star gazing experience Wonderful experience. The sceneries at Dante’s view, badwater basin are amazing and otherworldly. The stargazing experience is wonderful too, but make sure you bring enough clothing as it can get quite chilly in December night.

Excellent Hoover Dam Tour! We had a great time!
Bobby was very friendly, a safe driver and knowledgeable regarding facts about Las Vegas.

We were not rushed and we made it back to Las Vegas (Paradise) within the time frame.

Ty Bobby!

The best tour company with the best guide Jim! We had an amazing two-day tour of Antelope Canyon, the Grand Canyon, and several other historic sites with our guide, Jim. The whole trip was fantastic thanks to him. He was incredibly kind, patient, and organized, and even when a few things didn’t go exactly as planned, he handled everything smoothly and made sure we still had a great experience.

Jim was very considerate toward my sister and me. He even took us to the lunch spot we really wanted to try, which we appreciated a lot. Throughout the tour, he kept us well-supplied with snacks and drinks, and he shared tons of interesting information about all the places we visited and passed by.

On the long stretches of road, Jim kept the ride fun with his funny comments and lighthearted banter. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and we’re so grateful for his care and effort. Five stars for Jim — a kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely thoughtful tour guide!

Great tour and guide (Bobby) but do not book with Viator. Go direct to MaxTours. Great tour and guide (Bobby). Next time I would book directly with MaxTour rather than through Viator. Viator does not share contact info with MaxTour so we never received any pickup details and we would most certainly missed the tour if I had not contacted Max Tour directly.

A fabulous day out I took this tour with Bobby. I honestly cannot find fault. I was picked up on time at my hotel, and Bobby was extremely welcoming and knowledgeable. We were a group of 11. The van was comfortable, with plenty of room, and the soft drinks and snacks flowed all day, but they didn't flow as much as Bobby's knowledge of Las Vegas and the surrounding area. The man is a walking encyclopedia. Bobby made sure the singles didn't miss out on photo ops and was happy taking photos for us. We had plenty of time at all the stops and lots of toilet opportunities. I would highly recommend Max Tours for anyone wanting a small group tour. I booked through the Max Tours website.
