Electric Bicycle Tour of Santa Monica and Venice Beach
Los Angeles, California
My Rating

The day started with us stuck in terrible traffic. I called to ask if they wanted to move us to a later time and Steve said that they would wait for us. We got a late start but Barbara, our guide, asked if we had time to extend the ending time since we got a late start. We were thrilled that we didn't have to miss anything. We rode through Santa Monica, along the bike path of Santa Monica Beach and then through Venice Beach and the canals. Barbara had us make several stops so that she could explain the history of sights along the way as well as some pop culture. She also took several pictures of us. The bikes were great! They were easy to handle and we loved having the option of using the electric setting to help get us up some of the steeper inclines. We had a fantastic time!

Warner Bros. Studio VIP Tour
Los Angeles, California
My Rating

The time spent at the studio was fun and interesting and the tour guide was great. But, the amount of time spent in transit was ridiculous. We were picked up at our hotel, which was 5 mins from the studio and driven to the office 20 minutes away at Graumann's Theater. We had to wait on line to pick up our tickets and then get on another but to go to Warner Bros. At the end of the tour, we boarded the bus and went back to the Tour office to pick up the bus to our hotel. The tour was 2 1/2 hours and we spent another 2 1/2 hours traveling and waiting on line for something that was right around the corner from our hotel. I would book directly with Warner Bros next time. The Tour Operator should pick up from area hotels and go directly to the studio. This was a ridiculous system.

Black Canyon River Rafting Tour
Las Vegas, Nevada
My Rating

This was a gentle raft ride that started near Hoover Dam and ended at Willow Beach, AZ. Our guide was excellent and the boat was very comfortable. He made sure that we were hydrated along the way and handed out cold, wet, towels to put around our necks to keep us cool. He was very informative about nature as well as the historical aspects of the canyon. We stopped at a beach along the way for a picnic lunch and had time to swim if we chose to do so. The scenery was beautiful and all in all a very enjoyable day.

Valley of Fire Luxury Tour Trekker Excursion
Las Vegas, Nevada
My Rating

This was spectacular! Despite the extreme heat, we had a great time. Our tour guide had a real passion for the park and was so knowledgeable and interesting. Valley of Fire is so unusual in its topography and we loved seeing the many petraglyphs. This was a tour that I would be happy to do again.

Penn and Teller at the Rio Suite Hotel and Casino
Las Vegas, Nevada
My Rating

We loved the show but were disappointed that our seats were pretty far back. Since there were open seats up closer, I would have loved to have been given that option, even if it meant spending more, to sit closer. I think a magic show is certainly something that closer seats would be preferable.

Red Rock Canyon Exotic Car Experience
Las Vegas, Nevada
My Rating

I booked this as an anniversary surprise for my husband and it was fantastic! The guides were great and made sure that he was comfortable to drive each car. I went along for the ride and to take pictures. We were in each car for about 10 miles. The backdrop of Red Rock Canyon was awesome.

La Jolla Sea Caves Kayak Tour
San Diego, California
My Rating

We loved this tour. The guides that took us out were very conscious of everyone's safety and made sure that we were all where we were supposed to be and within their sight at all times. The conditions were good in that we were able to enter a cave and it was a great experience. The water was warm and beautiful and the backdrop of La Jolla beach was and the cliffs were beautiful.

Ultimate Grand Canyon 4-in-1 Helicopter Tour
Las Vegas, Nevada
My Rating

My family and I loved this tour. The only minuses were that they cram too many people into the helicopter which was a little uncomfortable. The flight, otherwise, was wonderful- very smooth and scenic and the pilot was very informative and pointed out many things along the way. The boat cruise was pleasant and we were very happy that we got to experience the Skywalk. Our only other complaint was that we had a long wait for a shuttle to the ranch for lunch. A very long line developed and they were sending vans that couldn't accommodate the large numbers of people waited. After some complaints, they finally sent a shuttle bus but it made the rest of our day there very rushed.
