Amazing Trip - 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.

Hit the Jackpot when you book this tour! - 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.

Best experience ever! - 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!

Tour guide and amazing photographer! - 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.
