The communication at this company was terrrible. After we initially purchased our tickets, we received absolutely no more notification of what to do or where to meet. Not a week before our trip, or even the day of. When we didn’t find any..one who was supposed to be picking us up at the airport on time, we called the emergency number and a lady with a strong Chinese accent picked up on the other end but she didn’t understand me, I couldn’t understand her, and so she hung up on me after saying she didn’t know how to help me.
After receiving a strange call from a California number from a man with a strong Asian accent I couldn’t confidently understand, we were approached and hauled off to a bus that brought us to a hotel where we waited for 3 hours standing around before starting our trip.
On day 1, we did not see anything besides our hotel. Despite it appearing that we would start touring then and despite that we still had to pay a $9 service fee. On day 2, our itenerary stated we would see Lake Powell. We didn't even stop. For the Bryce National Canyon stop, we drove 5 hours from where we were (not including the lengthy bathroom stops because you can’t use the bathrooms on the bus) to make ONE stop at Bryce Canyon for LESS than 40 minutes.
We spent more time at Chinese buffets than at Bryce Canyon, Grand Teton, and Zion National Park combined! We went out of our way to get to some of these Chinese buffets, which resulted in more time waiting around on the bus, because the tour guide would get to eat free for bringing in a bus full of people.
Besides spending more time eating than at the actual destinations, we spent just as much time at bathrooms along the way. There is a bathroom on the tour bus but if it’s used it will make the entire bus smell like sewage. You would stop for a bathroom every 2 or 2 and 1/2 hours and EVERY female on the bus used the bathroom EVERY time so there would always be extensively long wait times for that reason. Our tour guide would specify a time to be back by the bus at and most travelers did not abide by that (and faced no consequences) and we waited for longer than expected or also, we sometimes had to wait because there were still people in line for the bathrooms since lines were so long.
Also, it may be important to note this specific tour was much more focused on Asian customers than American. My boyfriend and I were the ONLY non Asian people on the bus. There’s nothing wrong with that although, it did make us feel uncomfortable with some of the looks and reactions we got and we also felt left out when our tour guide would speak more in Chinese than English and failed to ensure we also knew what was going on. His English was not the most clear and there were multiple occasions we didn’t understand what we were supposed to be doing or what the money we were giving him was for.
Overall, if you’re looking to see a bunch of places for a very short amount of time, you don’t care about being in a bus for half the day, everyday, you love Chinese buffets, and you prefer your vacations to be a little more sketchy, this is a perfect trip for you. If not, I would suggest you look elsewhere for tour companies or even just pick a few destinations, spend however much time you want there, and be able to actually take in all the destinations for what they’re worth. Good luck.Read full review

It was good for what we paid for & all the arrangements/information up to the day of tour was good. As per our previous experience with Tours4fun, this tour guide should have done much better at least to keep the good name of the main compa..ny/Tours4fun.Read full review
We will never travel again without the GO Los Angeles Card. My wife bought GO Los Angeles Card for a recent trip and we couldn’t believe how much money we saved… Great product! Thank you.

We’re a group of 5 travelling together and we enjoyed this tour. Good itinerary but little bit tight in term of time. The tour guide is good and very helpful.
The trip was good, YNP was a very picturesque place and we saw a lot of wildlifes, antelope canyon was beautiful but full of people. The tour in Gran canyon and LV was perfect. It was a long trip and we were tired at the end of the tour, bu..t we did have a lot of fun. The whole family enjoyed it. Thank you, tours4fun for providing us such a good tour.Read full review
This trip is worth going to. I went in March end/April start and it was awesome. A tight tour but covers lots of beautiful places. my guide Roger was really nice, used to take personnel interest in each tourist. I felt time was sufficient t..o visit each place except grand canyon. but then Grand Canyon is a place where someone can spend a whole weekend or a week. I am sure in summer the tour will be much better as temp gets hotter. One shortcoming (which didn't matter for me) majority of the tourist are from Asian countries, so less English speakers.
The hotels were all standard and good. I esp liked hotels at Lake Powell, since that is located at a prime location.Read full review
I just freakin' loved it! I was in the GC before, independently, so I was a bit sceptic about a tour. But it was so well organized. You will definitely not go wrong with ctours!
Our tourguide, Ray, was so funny, sarcastic and honest with ..his suggestions and a lot he said was so helpful in making our decision.
Also, I have forgotten my bag in the bus, but it did not get lost or stolen. they was taking care of it and although I had to wait a week until I could get it, was so amazing in helping me. They called me back for answering my questions and concerns and Ray took a picture of the bag so I could make sure that is was mine.
A little thing is, and it is what it is - only a 3 day tour - that everything was so jam packed. Like the lunch breaks were not even an hour, so I felt a bit under pressure. But it is just very subjective.
All in all, I would definitely recommendRead full review
If you book Antelope Canyon tour, please beware this: In the description, it says we are going to "Glen Canyon Dam and take a boat tour," but it won't happen, don't believe it!!!, so I think you guys should consider to remove that part on y..our description!!
The tour guide Raymon was so rude to the customers. In addition, he spoke with me rudely and sometimes he raised his intonation. Also, he spoke English like only five minutes and spoke Chinese for almost 15 minutes!! So I assume he gave more information to Chinese speaker!! It's nothing special about this tour guide.
The hotel (Circus Circus Las Vegas) was ok. Nothing special, but a little bit old tho.
The transportation was ok and a little bit tight.
The tour itinerary was good, but always late not like the schedule. example: we need to stay on the bus at 11.00, but actually they'll go 11.10
The tours4fun's service is excellent. They reply me back so fast and professional.Read full review
