I wish there were more than 5 stars to describe my experience with MaxTour, specifically their Death Valley Small Group Day Tour from Las Vegas. I used Viator to book, but next time I will book directly. The whole 12 hour trip went like clockwork, from pick up to drop off, and everything in between. It was such a pleasant chill tour, since I wasn't having to do the driving. Loved the small group experience vs the giant bus (like the one we used for Hoover Dam a few days prior). It makes the process of getting on and off the bus, checking out the sites, meals, etc. go WAY quicker and easier. Definitely go with a small group tour, you won't regret it.
Death Valley is an incredibly beautiful, magical place. I seriously had no idea just how gorgeous the national park was, expecting a pile of rocks! Salt Flats at Badwater Basin, the many colors of rock at Artists Palette, golden colored badlands from Zabriskie Point, and the expansive views at Dantes View were some of the highlights. The pictures just don't do this place justice, and can't capture the beauty. It's a must see in person.
Jonny was our tour guide and driver, and he did an amazing job at both tasks. Not only was he professional, kind, patient, friendly and fun, he had super taste in music. We got to listen to some great tunes the whole ride to Death Valley and back. Jonny was able to impart his vast knowledge of the park, but also Las Vegas, so he really kept the day interesting.
I'm already looking at doing another MaxTour next year while in Vegas. If it's anything like our Death Valley tour, I know we're in good hands!
