The trip was beautiful, but I think the best part was the Daniel our tour guide! Super friendly and helpful, he knew a lot about the Grand Canyon which was great! All around perfect tour! A++

Itinerary
We will pick you up at the hotel where you are staying and we will start the tour towards the western part of the Grand Canyon, located 192 km from the city of Las Vegas. Your guide will tell you about the different points of interest that we will find on the trip.
The first stop will be at the Lake Mead viewpoint, where we will appreciate the views of this artificial reservoir created by the collision of the Colorado River with the wall of the Hoover Dam. We will access the dam to appreciate two marvels of engineering, the Bridge that crosses the dam and the Hoover architecture, Art Deco style. The next stop will be for a breakfast coffee where you cannot miss the classic American donuts, is our advice.
Watch the Colorado River from the Mike O'Callaghan–Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge. Enjoy the amazing views from above.
We have reached our destination The Grand Canyon West, this part of the canyon consists of two viewpoints El Mirador Del Aguila, where the Skywalk and El Mirador Del Guano are located, where we will make stops so you can enjoy one of the greatest wonders of the planet.
Once we finish lunch we start our way back to Las Vegas and back to the hotel.
We resume the march and already within the great desert extension we make a detour into the deepest and most rugged America something similar to the Breaking Bad series, it is the town of Dolan Spring, a classic of the Far West. We are only 80 km away from our final destination, when in an unexpected way we enter the forest of Joshua trees, a native species of the Mojave Desert.

Jay was such a great guide! He was knowledgeable, funny and did a fabulous job of taking some beautiful pictures for us. The only thing is that he kept calling me Karen…..oh wait-that’s my name! LOL Thank you Jay for making our day so special!!
Charley made this trip!! It did not go with what the itinerary says online but again our bus driver saved the trip. It was beautiful! Special thanks for stopping and letting me take pictures at the Joshua trees!
Lankun aka mama is absolutely amazing!!! I’ve traveled all over the world and she is seriously the best tour guide I ever had! She got us in early to beat the crowds and she takes the most wonderful photos! Highly, highly, highly recommend!!!
Lankun is the best tour guide there is!! She is incredibly knowledgeable-encyclopedic! She knows the best routes and will allow you and your family to have the best access and time to enjoy your trip. Highly recommend Lankun!
What a day would highly recommend doing this if your in vegas. Our guide Jay was excellent helped us get all the best photo opportunities. If you can definitely do a small group there was only 4 in ours which meant we didn’t have to use the shuttle buses on the skywalk saved a couple of hours which gave us more time so see more.
Lankun aka momma was the best tour guide and we were blessed to spend the day learning from her….did I mention her photography skills are on point!!!! Never a dull moment and she was so kind to our two kids that were into all the things!! Really amazing day a must do when you are in Vegas!!
Our family lost money on our trip to Vegas, but we hit the JACKPOT when we booked a tour through iTravel USA. We were fortunate enough to have Lankun, aka “Mama”, as our tour guide around the Grand Canyon, Joshua Tree National Park, and Hoover Dam. Our day with her was the highlight of our trip! Ask for her. Seriously. Here’s why: she is knowledgable. Not just knowledgable, but a plethora of information and context. She knows the area, the small towns, the people and the “quirky details” that will stick out in your mind long after you return home. She has also amassed a cache of online resources that she will provide links to, so you can further your learning experience and really soak up the information later on. This was particularly helpful because A) it’s hard to remember everything that early in the morning and B) we traveled with kids and we could really extend the learning experience after our tour was complete. Lankun “Mama” has the tour process down to a science. She knows where to stop for the cleanest restrooms, best photo ops AND when to get there to minimize standing in long lines. Perhaps most significantly, Lankun is an exceptional photographer. She told us that she would take our pictures (if we liked, of course) with her camera (phone) and would air drop the photos to everyone near the end of our tour, so we wouldn’t have to worry about capturing the moment—we could just enjoy our experience. My husband and I were STUNNED at the quality of her pictures. She knows where the best places are for backdrops and she will guide you through a very simple photo shoot. She is efficient. The result was that EVERY family in our tour received professional pictures from each location we visited that day. Honestly, you could spend hundreds of dollars on a just a professional photographer like her—and she provides this service as part of the tour! I was so impressed, I asked my husband to tip her generously because now we have pictures for Christmas cards and to fill our frames around our house. So don’t worry, even if you lose money in Vegas, you will more than cover the loss by booking a tour with Lankun, aka “Mama” as your guide.
My wife and I went on the Grand Canyon tour with Hoover Dam and Joshua tree. Lankun aka Mama was our tour guide. She arrived on time to pick us up from our hotel. During the tour she made sure to give us as much information as possible and also took lots of awesome pictures of us during the process. Lunch was provided and she made sure that we stayed hydrated. The tour was worth every cent and Lankun did everything that she said she was going to do. She even cracked some jokes in the process lol. We really enjoyed ourselves and this was an experience of a lifetime!
I signed up for this tour because I didn't want to be on the big bus tour. Lankun was amazing. She knows so much! She got us to the Grand Canyon early before there were a lot of people and she took amazing photos of our family. Best tour I have ever experienced!!!
Had an amazing experience with mama! She stayed with us and took photos all day long! Highly recommend!
This was by far the best tour my wife and I have ever had and that is saying a lot, as we are adventurists and love seeking places that require guided tours to learn as we have fun. Our tour guide’s name was Lankun aka “Mama,” which I found to be extremely fitting as she was very thoughtful in making sure we all had cold water, watched our steps, and took notice to all of our minor weaknesses (for example, knee pains, back issues, patience level to picture taking, fear of heights) to make sure we could all have fun. As a tour guide it’s important to k ow all the good spots to see the breathtaking views, but to also capture them for you, is going above and beyond. Mama is not only an amazing tour guide, but captured better photos that we will remember for a lifetime! I highly recommend this tour, and I highly recommend Lankun, you will not regret it.
Our tour was wonderful and our guide Lankum was entertaining and masterly knowledgeable regarding every aspect of our tour. She was friendly and gave 120% from the time she picked us up until the moment we returned to our hotel. We were all very appreciative of her efforts and will be glad to recommend her to family and friends in the future.
My absolute favorite 😍 part of the tour was the helicopter tour that my sister and I did. This trip was in memory of our dad. We took the very same trip as him and his siblings 2 months before he passed. "Mama" made this trip a trip to remember even more. She took the most amazing pictures of myself and my sister so that when I pass my 3 boys can go to each of the places that we did and replicate the same trip. It was very unexpected but SO SO SO welcomed and appreciated more than she knows. I HIGHLY recommend her if you are looking for MORE than just a "guide". She made this trip so nice for us that I have already arrived home and am talking to the husband about planning a trip for myself and him with her when it cools down. Not only was she great with us, but we had an elderly couple with us on our trip and the patience, compassion, and all around caring and attention she paid to that couple was fantastic as well. She insured their safety on the uneven ground and made sure that they was able to stop when they needed but didn't slow us younger ones down either. I can NOT say enough good things about her!!! I could go on and on. You will not be disappointed with Mama at all. BoOK your trip with her before she is all booked up!!!!
Mama was great. Amazing tour, with thousands of pics made by Mama and a perfect organzation. Highly recommended!
Lankan really looked after us and took some amazing shots. Would highly recommend booking with her. Brilliant day.
Outstanding tour, “mama” was very knowledgeable and will take tons of high quality pictures for you. Didn’t use my phone once, she is a pro!!!!!
We spent a terrific day with Jay serving as our awesome guide. He showed a sincere commitment to ensuring all participants enjoyed the tour while remaining safe. I highly recommend the tour and Jay.
This was such a great tour and our tour guide Lankun aka “Mama” was so amazing and informative! She takes great photos of you and provided a very informative tour. I learned a lot! Definitely recommend! Thank you iTravel USA and “Mama”!!!
I was with the most amazing tour guide Lankun AKA “Mama” she began our tour enlightening us on everything from the history of the different cities to detailed information on Joshua Tree, GrandCanyon and Hoover Damn. She made us feel as if we were best friends!!! I’m so grateful that she was with us through every step!!! Words really cannot explain how happy she made me feel!!! Thank you “Mama” It meant the world to me!!!!! Sorry for being a big baby at the GrandCanyon but you made it relaxing!!!!
Jay was an awesome tour guide. He was very knowledgeable, and was happy to answer any of the questions posed from our group. He had a very good sense of humor, and had our group laughing at his quips. If I ever am back in the Vegas area, I would definitely want Jay to head up any tour group I am on.
we had the best time touring today. my husband and i are on our honeymoon. JAY WAS AWESOME. very entertaining, informative, funny and made sure we had fun! jay offered to take all of our photos for us. great experience for our first time in the west at all. 10/10 recommend. we will be back for sure!
We toured with Lankun who was amazing! We got to Grand Canyons early to beat the crowds at Skywalk, and learned a lot of cool facts from Lankun about the area. The weather admittedly, wasn't in our favor (high winds kept us from staying too long in the canyon.) But despite that I feel like we got taken good care of on the trip! Seeing Hoover Dam was awesome, and took pictures with the Joshua Trees. It was very nice of Lankun to keep checking in with all of us, and helping us take photos as well as area trivia. As a bonus we also got to see some Big Horn sheep in Boulder City as well as the beautiful Red Rock Canyon!
Our tour guide, Lankun, was awesome . She took care of each individual to insure all their needs were met. She was very caring in that she took pictures for each and everyone in the group, and also made sure each member of the group was taken care of, as everyone had different requirements regarding age and physical limitations. Lankun, aka Mama, was very knowledgeable about the history of the dam and the history of the native American tribe that are a part of the local history at the grand canyon. All in all, it was an awesome tour and I recommend anyone, who is interested in touring this particular area, to shout out to them and request Lankun as their guide.
We booked a VIP Grand Canyon with Skywalk, Hoover Dam, Joshua tree forest tour with these folks. I dealt with Angela who is a sweetheart with excellent communications skills. Lorenzo was our tour guide. He is a very knowledgeable and personable man. There was supposed to be us and one other couple that day. Lorenzo picked us up at the hotel (on time) first and then we went to the other couples hotel. That couple apparently canceled that morning so we were the only two on that tour which was fantastic and very lucky for us. I had been to the Hoover Dam on a self tour about three years ago and Lorenzo took us to different points at the damn which was very nice to see a different view than before. Lorenzo has quite the photo mind with excellent skills of where to go to get the best pictures throughout the trip! I was not that excited to go to Joshua tree forest until I got there and changed my mind. I’m glad that it was part of the tour. The Grand Canyon portion of the trip was absolutely mind blowing. Very beautiful country and we were both very impressed with Lorenzo‘s knowledge. The finger he used to take pictures with our Smart phones had to be wore out by the end of the day. We had lunch at the Grand Canyon also with a beautiful view to enjoy. We have decided that we will return to the Grand Canyon on our next trip and definitely will book the helicopter and boat ride. And yes we will book the trip through these guys. They are very friendly knowledgeable and professional the whole tour. We tipped Lorenzo very well at the end of the tour for all of his time and knowledge during the trip. We both had a very good time and experience. Book your tours with these folks and you will not be disappointed! Thanks again Angela and Lorenzo for the excellent experience.
