    Although I would have preferred a little higher activity level, the rest of the tour was great. Of course the parks are all beautiful. I also enjoyed hearing the history, stories, insights and music presented by our tour guide. I especially liked the wine tasting and dinner at the winery in Grand Junction.

    Time frames were always too short. An hour and a half it NOT long enough in an unfamiliar cute town to have lunch/dinner and see the town. That amount of time is only enough to have a served restaurant meal!! The tour manager certainly was in control and was a people mover when it came to a time frame…….no flexibility. Love the trip except for the above comments.

    Great tour for those who do not want to spend a lot of planning or vacation time making reservations, hoping to get good national park entry times, charting routes, etc. And for those who appreciate live real time narratives of what you are seeing or immediate answers to your questions about what you are experiencing. We saw a lot of parks including a couple not on the itinerary. The tour guide was very knowledgeable. Local speakers imparted the local flavor of some stops, too. Not so great if you like to take your sweet time at a location and want to take along lots of goodies that would take up too much space on a bus or plane (like my big fluffy pillow or a pet.)

Pool closed at 6:00 bummer. Room very nice . State Parks ruled this vacation. Just a note Collette needs to have someone with a sign at the airport so you know where your transport to the hotel is We spent a hour asking information , calling the hotel,calling you.

    My memorable experience was the entire trip! I was so in amazement and wonder of the entire experience. I was tired when I returned home, however I am ready to go again but longer. Our tour guide was full of information and details. Our bus driver was very helpful also. The stories they told kept us interested, the towns we visited were interesting and the people were very nice. We have no idea of the beauty of this country beholds. I had been as far west as New Mexico. This was better, the mountains were beautiful and went on forever. I have had friends move to Utah and now I know why. It was good breakfast was included. That way we did not have to try and find a place to eat. Lunch and dinner were on our own. That way we could experience the local cuisine. Most of what I saw on the menus was regular food like you would have at home. There were plenty of restaurants close to where we were staying, walking distance. The trip was worth the price.

    Friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. Driver did an excellent job on difficult roads. Sights amazing. Didn't like there was not enough time at Arches, Canyonlands and Bryce.-Only 1/2 a day at each. Wish you would make the tour 1 or 2 days longer. I didn't care for ending in Las Vegas. I know its the closest airport, so understand the choice. Just such a contrast from the beauty of the National Parks. Possibly you could arrange an optional extra trip to Hoover Dam to make staying in Las Vegas worthwhile.

    My birthday was at the beginning of the tour (I take this day very seriously). Heather made it very special by decorating the window of my seat with colorful letters reading "Happy Birthday". She also researched and read events in history on that day. She gave me the list, and also a gift--a magnet of her own personal photos of the sights from our trip. Another thing--I was spreading some of my brother's ashes and I was very emotional. Kimo was concerned and asked me if I was ok. I explained by I was emotional, and he shared his own story with me, which made me feel much better. He is a very kind, and gentle man.

    The basic tour was great. The extension in Denver was great, but the extended time in Las Vegas and the flight problems home left me with a reduced opinion of the trip.

    Arches Park & Bryce Canyon. We had plenty of time to do the walking hikes/tours. I have so many pictures of all the places we visited. Every Park/Monument we visited was on my list of places I've always wanted to see

    The tour was wonderful. The itinerary and pacing was flexible, so people with different abilities levels could be accommodated. Merrin, our tour manager was terrific, creating a warm, inclusive atmosphere that everyone enjoyed.

    The tour manager, Marrin was fantastic and I enjoyed the extra time at the parks to hike and explore. The bus drive Kimo was great. The beauty of our country is totally amazing.

    I loved the National Parks. The tour director was amazing Great bus driver. I did not like Las Vegas. After all that natural beauty, Vegas seemed very harsh and out of place. I know we were working our way to the airport, but there has to be a better way!

    Heather and Glen (tour manager and driver) where both wonderful. They made sure everything went smoothly so the we were able to enjoy ourselves. Heather provided a good mix of information/fun facts/and quiet time as we traveled from location to location. The planned activities and the pace were good. I would definitely recommend this tour and Collette to others!

    While it was overall a wonderful trip, we were disappointed not to have seen more of the Arches in that National Park, and to have driven through Escalante with only a stop at the visitor center. But Bryce and .Zion at the end of the tour were wonderful.

    After touring the gorgeous scenery in Utah, it is impossible for me to pick one The hotel in Las Vegas was not on the strip & not the most convenient location. Freemont Street was definitely not appealing to us.
