After we return to the ranch, a dinner of BBQ ribs will be served alongside a live country-western music show. After dinner, there will be a campfire party in front of the Grand Canyon, followed by karaoke to top off the evening.

Please be advised that the accommodation in West Grand Canyon is a lodge, the room only has one queen size bed and a sofa bed.
Highly recommend this tour. Very brief but covered everything I needed to see. Tour guide Timothy, was very entertaining and knowledgable. If you're planning on going during the summer season, make sure you wear plenty of sunscreen, wear a hat, and carry plenty of water. Another thing I highly recommend is bringing packets of oatmeal, dried fruit, etc for you won't get much variety when it comes to dining. Tour overall well worth every penny!
The trip was good. We really enjoyed it. The tour guide took us to interesting spots so that we didn't waste time. Had plenty of time for shopping at an outlet store.
This is a great tour! I definitely recommend it - Alan, our tour guide, made it even more fun. The bus driver, Sung, was a steady and great driver. The entire trip was definitely a memorable one, especially staying in Hualapai Ranch for a night - what an experience! Only a couple of issues: The bus was a bit small and lacked of room/ space, which made is a bit uncomfortable when you're driving for 5 hours. The other thing is, these tours are mostly catered to the Asian market so if you hate eating Chinese food or being around Asians, then I'd recommend not going as you'll be eating Chinese Buffet all day er day.
A great tour at a good pace. Plenty of time to explore the Grand Canyon sights. The night at the reach is special. Being able to see the sunripe is amazing. Not that much time in Vegas, but night tour allows some time in the Venetian to shop if you so desire.
The tour was good. Quick stops at places unfortunately to fit it all in!
Worth it for Chinese people. Although the tour guide is bilingual, people who do not understand Chinese will lose out a lot of content. Even though the tour guide did translate to English, it is like 85% Chinese vs 15% English in content. Attractions are as good as others said. The only thing you need to add on is the helicopter ride down the Grand Canyon. Although it is expensive, the view is spectacular.
Thoroughly enjoyed our trip for all 3 days, backed by our tour guide, Joeye, who was energetic and excellent, all throughout.
This was a great tour! I was the only person at the tour who did not speak Chinese, but the tour guide did translate everything in (good) English, and there were also several guests who spoke English to me as well. I went in winter time, and then you cannot see the sunset over the Grand Canyon, as the sun is already down when you arrive. Also the wagon ride is cancelled in the winter period. But the helicopter tour over the Grand Canyon was really a great experience, and certainly worth the extra money you pay for this. We were also offered to join the ultimate V-Variety Show, which was a really great show (I did this show instead of the Jubilee show).
We just got back from the overnight in Grand Canyon trip and we enjoyed it so much that we recommended it to all our friends. Our bus driver Angel was great, he is very good driver and he cleaned the bus every night. The bus was always as clean as the first day we got on. The Grand Canyon is a magnificent view but the highlight of the trip is the Hualapai Ranch. The room was small but the staff, amenities and view was wonderful. The cowboys were great- they interacted with our kids, and my son told all his classmates about his shootout with them. There was 4 adults and 4 kids (age 3- 10yrs) and we all enjoyed it.
The whole trip was smooth and well-planned. Glad we picked the West-rim of Grand Canyon (instead of the South-rim) - we really enjoyed the helicopter ride and the boat ride. The tour guide was a gem. He was helpful and kept us informed of anything we needed to know about the trip. We will recommend this trip to anyone who is interested in seeing Grand Canyon and Las Vegas.
