Your Tour at a Glance
Tour Activity Level
The activity level for this tour:
You’re a leisurely traveler. You typically take it easy and discover the energy of a new place by people-watching or soaking in the atmosphere at a local café. You can climb at least one flight of stairs, board a coach, and walk unassisted at a relaxed pace for up to 60 minutes without difficulty. You can easily handle altitudes up to 5,000 feet.
You like a balanced approach to travel. Walking two to three miles over the course of a day is no problem for you. You can partake in a two-hour leisurely walking tour, covering up to two miles (with included breaks). You can handle a variety of terrains, from cobblestone streets to moderate hills with relative ease and without assistance. You can climb two flights of stairs with ease. There may be 1 to 2 days on this tour when walking tours can cover 3 to 4 miles over uneven terrain. You can handle altitudes up to 6,000 feet.
You’re an on-the-go traveler. You don’t want to miss a thing, so walking and standing for longer periods of time (2-3 hours) isn’t a big deal. A moderately paced two-and-a-half-hour walking tour, covering several miles, hills, and uneven surfaces, is no problem for you. Walking four miles over the course of a day is very doable, as is climbing into and out of various modes of transportation (tuk-tuk, cable car, zodiac, etc.). You can climb three flights of stairs easily and handle altitudes between 6,000 and 9,000 feet. Expect some longer days balanced with free time to recharge or set out on your own adventure. This level is not a fit for travelers who require mobility assistance devices.
You’re ready to seize the day, whatever it may bring. You lead an active life at home (walking, biking, and half or full day hikes are things you may enjoy) and 10,000 steps a day is normal for you. You can handle longer walking tours (more than 3 hours covering 3+ miles at a steady clip) and activities that involve traversing uneven terrain, steep slopes, standing for periods of time, and varying altitudes and temperatures. You don’t mind being on the go with some early starts, late-nights, and full days. You can handle altitudes of 9,000 feet or higher with little to no issue. This level is not appropriate for travelers who use wheelchairs, walkers, and other mobility assistance devices.

The entire trip was amazing. Our tour guide, Katie, and bus driver, Steve, were excellent - knowledgeable, friendly, accommodating and reliable. Sedona and Yellowstone were my favorite sites, but the best part of the trip were the organization, schedules, 36 fellow travelers and the weather. Well worth every penny we spent and every minute on the tour.

When a stranger wearing only underpants knocked on our door late at night in our Grand Canyon Lodge, seeking help because he had fallen and hurt himself, I didn’t know what to do or how to get help. I called our tour leader, Eileen, who came to our room immediately. She took the situation in hand, contacting security to help the man and telling me to go back to bed and get some rest. Throughout this emergency she was calm and cool, kind and understanding to the man, and all in all just perfect.

Very well laid out tour. Gave us enough time at the major National Parks we visited. We were able to do some short hikes to explore. 2000 miles in a bus seat...beats driving it yourself, and our Driver Dale was outstanding. The proper tour manager .....who would have kept us engaged on the bus....would have made the whole experience 5 star.

Our tour guide and motor coach driver were the best! Everything was well planned and well organized. I am a vegetarian and I was accommodated throughout the tour. Great experience, with many big and small happenings. All special memories. Highly recommend! Keep checking off your bucket list items. A tour is the way to go since the parks are so crowded. We always had parking and our tour guide immersed us in history and fun facts throughout the trip. Time on the bus flew by! Just do it!! Oh, Collette arranged for me to use the airport closest to me. Having a driver to and from the airport was a great way to begin and end a wonderful adventure.

I loved the trip but due to my age (almost 83) and neurophy in my feet, I struggled to get through the tour. It exhausted me. However, I am so glad I did the trip and thanks to your guide, Cheryl, and a few true gentlemen on the trip, I was able to do most of the trails. I had no idea there was so much unbelievable beauty out west. I recommend it highly. This is my fourth trip with Collette and have been very pleased with each and every one.

Owning my own travel agency and being a tour guide its often I cannot fully connect to a tour led by another person. This tour far exceeded my expectations. I have completed four tours in the majority of these areas, but I have never saw the West as this tour presented. The guide was truly exceptional, and his caring attitude ensured that we got more than what we paid for on this journey. My favorite experience was on the Riverwalk, I broke away from the group and found myself reflecting of my life. This walk was so calm and relaxing. I was so impressed by the National Parks of American tour that I plan to promote it as future must see destinations for my clients. This one was a vacation that I never knew how much I appreciated or needed in my life.

Welcome dinner was Mexican… not suitable for all. Farewell dinner was just ok… the entertainment by Robert Yellowhorse was great. probably needed a bit more time at the Buffalo Bill museum, etc. There were five museums plus it was our lunch stop So we did not have enough time to see all of the museums. All in all a great trip!

I did not like the fact the some of the accommodations were on the 2nd floor and there were NO elevators. This made if difficult to care our small luggage to our room. A couple of the Hotels which served food, had a very limited staff. We waited two hours to receive our dinners. The problem was they had two tour buses and couldn't handle the people. Greedy owner who didn't care about his Guest or Staff who warned him of the problem.. Will Not use Collette in the future !

This tour was everything it said it was in that we saw a lot. However, it was really a "drive by" of the Parks. Our tour director, Sheryl, was awesome. She has extensively researched our destinations and routes and shared loads of info and videos. The bus driver was equally great. He was so good navigating the switchbacks of Zion. Bill was very personable and professional and an added component of the trip. He and Sheryl made a good team. Having hip problems I didn't anticipate the pain I would experience sitting on the bus for such long periods of time. Given the large amount of miles traveled, Sheryl, allowed for as many stops as availability and time allowed. It was still painful. I've never taken so many ibuprophen in 12 days. I don't know if this info would have influenced my decision to go on the trip. I do not regret going. We had a wonderful tour. The most memorable experience was the amount of respect everyone showed to each other. No complainers and no one was cronically tardy. We all had fun.

This tour was a most memorable one. The sites that we visited and the beauty of our country is unmatched to anything I’ve ever experienced. The accommodations for the most part were very good. The rooms were clean and most exceeded my expectations. Our tour guide, Bryan Mulvaney was so personable and full of knowledge about every state park and monument that we visited. He even added a personal touch by providing his own videos of the sites we were about to see. What impressed me very much was that he was able to assist me in getting substitutions for some of the meals that I was unable to eat due to food allergies. Bryan’s ability to add humor to the tour group also made for a fun trip. I would definitely recommend this tour and Collette specifically.

I would definitely recommend the Collette tour of the national parks. We would have never been able to visit all the sites on our own. Our driver was excellent, and our tour guide planned everything out perfectly. He also provided a lot of insights that we would otherwise not have known. I would recommend going later than the middle of May, as we did encounter below freezing weather and snow in Wyoming!

It was a balanced trip (rest stops, breaks, travel time) that had us seeing some of our country's most spectacular natural wonders almost daily. During the long drives, the tour manager kept us busy with interesting facts, games, advice, and videos. I can say that our friends and family were not bored with the usual vacation photos, but they readily agree we had a dream trip. Have gotten lots of compliments and inquires as to how they could look into this tour for their future dream vacation. By the way, this is our second Collette trip, and they did not disappoint us with either trip to the USA National Parks and Iceland.

My wife and I had a great overall experience. The tour manager was terrific. He was knowledgeable of everything we saw, he provided great background to all we saw at our destinations and along the way. He provided supplemental videos to improve our knowledge of our destinations. The bus driver was also outstanding. He was also very knowledgeable of the route and destinations. He was safe and courteous. The accommodations were nearly all outstanding as well. The ones that were lacking were probably because they were close to our destinations. I think the tour could benefit by eliminating Denver as a destination and finding another location close to the Rocky Mountains.

The sights were beautiful, but my favorite sight, Bryce Canyon, we were only given about 30 minutes to view this magnificent canyon. This was very disappointing. The balance of timing per event needs to be recalibrated. The seating in the bus was uncomfortable. My husband and I are not big people and we both felt crowded (no knee room and narrow seats). These are the main reasons I gave it a four.

Kim Moriarity was a most pleasant and helpful tour manager. Russ was a terrific driver and we felt very safe driving through mountains and long days of travel. Zion National Park and the two nights at the Springdale Zion Park Inn were the delightful. Seeing and hearing the Mormon Temple Choir rehearse was a treat.

The trip was well thought out, but the food was very close to horrible. The bus was not adequate for a long tour as the climate control was spotty at best and the Wi-Fi worked occasionally and cup holders were not to be had.

The service was good, our guide was great. There was just not enough room between the seats on the bus for as long as the trip was. We expected a little bit more room to be able to move around comfortably. We felt like since we were on the bus so many days, and so long that the bus would’ve been a bit more spacious. Since it was a tour bus we just expected it not to be crammed packed with seats allowing more legroom.

We enjoyed all the parks, my favorite part was the scenic route down the snake River on the raft. Our little guard was very informative and a delight as he gave us the details. It was a great disappointment that we did not get to go to Yellowstone park, but we know that could not be helped. We do appreciate the fact that Ann our guide was able to find us alternative parts to go to.

The tour itinerary, tour guide and driver were excellent. The coach, although new, was another story. The electrical plugs did not work most of the time and the Wi-Fi was the same.

I thought the tour was well put together and we saw all planned tour sites plus some . But the one and only Major fault in the tour was the tour bus itself. This bus may be acceptable for a day or overnight tour but NOT for a 10 day tour. It was very tight seating, air control was far less than acceptable. It lacked working electrical outlets by all seating. In general extremely disappointing traveling mode. But must say all lodging and food planned establishments were very good to excellent accommodations.

All parks visited were memorable experiences. Tne natural beauty of our parks were more spectacular than any pictures seen. Each park and monument had its own spectacular sites(ie. grand canyon, Zion, Crazy Horse, Mt Rushmore) It was a great way to see the many beautiful wonders here in the USA.

They all treated us like we were their only customer.

This tour covers a lot of ground 2081 miles to be exact! when you hear 5 national parks in 12 days - Grand Canyon, Yellowstone, 5 states, how could you pick out a favorite? We had not been to this part of our beautiful county and at every turn, each day we thought how could this get ant better - but it did. Going in October was a risk (Yellowstone was closed couple of days before we got there because of snow) but this time of year was beautiful, Arizona a beautiful 80 degrees, golden Aspens, snow on the mountains, snap in the air with blue skies, magnificent sun sets (Grand Canon North Rim) and the stars in the evenings. We saw so much wild life, seemed every morning we started off seeing something unusual, Condors, eagle, bison, elk, moose just to name a couple.

We would recommend Collette, and were very happy with the trip. The itinerary was great, and we loved the parks we visited and the amazing scenery. The places we stayed were very good; we especially loved staying in the cabin at the Grand Canyon. We appreciated the amount of free time we had as well as the included, planned activities.

Our tour guide, Phyl, was very knowledgeable about the area we were visiting, and she kept us informed/entertained by giving us facts about the areas we were in. She hiked with us, which we appreciated. Hard to narrow down my favorite memorable experience, but I really loved being at the Grand Canyon and staying in the cabins. Yellowstone was awesome, and we enjoyed staying in their beautiful lodge.

the only hotel we had a problem with was in Sheridan. Our room happened to have a leaky shower and possible mold. (There was a panel in the wall that fell and revealed the shower pipes leaking. the area was discolored and was possibly mold.)
Thank you for traveling with Collette to the National Parks. We're very sorry for the issue you experienced at the hotel in Sheridan, Wyoming. Your comments will be reviewed by the Product Design Team to ensure that they follow up with hotel management regarding this issue.

Everything was very well planned. I appreciated the luggage being taken care of at each stop. We got to see many wonderful places. The pace was a little intense and I was dismayed that many places had no accommodation for people with handicaps (for example to get from the rooms to the food sites that required a long walk).

Giving credit to Collette for being so quick in wanting to please their travelers. There was only one hotel we didn't care for the High rise and their service was poor RL in Salt lake. We would definitely book another trip with Collette in the future as long as we could afford to do so. Mark our Bus Driver was also a Great Asset to the trip, Excellent driver, Great personality and knew how to handle that bus.

Very well organised and an excellent leader, lots of interesting sights, experiences and things to learn. The accomodation at the Grand Canyon was unacceptable though, and to gain the best from the stop at the Oregan Trail visitor centre more time was required.

The trip was very good but some of the places - Lake Powell, Yellowstone - didn’t have enough places for us to eat dinner. We had a long wait period at both places. We understand we weren’t the only guests but with a bus load of people dinner reservations should have been made. The dinner in Rapid City (our last night) was not very good. Our other meals were very good or excellent. Overall we did enjoy our trip and definitely will travel with Collette again and will also recommend you to our friends and family.

Overall, the bus driver was outstanding and the occasional tour person who told us about specific sites, such as "Crazy Horse" was terrific.

Organisation both from the London office and on the tour was excellent. The only thing that would have improved it would have been to have had an e-mail contact in London for those queries that weren't really urgent enough to warrant a phone call. It was also slightly frustrating that the London phone number given on the correspondence went out of use but the new number wasn't automatically given when we dialled the original. We had to find it from the website.

Great trip; accommodations need review regarding bathroom toilet height
-
Trip Rating:
A world class organization. Have had great luck with guides and drivers on many trips. On National Parks trip, hotel bathroom accommodations should have been better. Our travelling group seemed to be all senior citizens, though not advertised that way. Regardless, a majority of us, short and tall, thought the hotel toilet bowls were too low for comfortable and safe usage. Sorry to be so graphic. Collette needs to review their hotel selections and their bathroom accommodations. Some of their hotel choices are quite outdated.

On a positive note, our bus driver was the BEST. Regarding phone calls that were made to Collette prior to the trip, the service could have been better. I waited a number of days before I received confirmation that my flight had been changed as I requested. I that our tour guide could have been more willing to help people with answers to questions and perhaps offer to do some research if she didn't know the answer. She seemed more interested in a "smooth" travel experience but sometimes, there are bumps along the way.

My reason for 2 stars is one reason only - COST. The cost of the tour was over $7,000. I understand I needed to pay the single fare but $1,500 for that was ridiculous and if I had stayed in a room with someone, that meant the cost would have been over $5,500. That is EXTREME, especially when I just found out about a trip with Trafalgar going to basically the exact same places and the cost for that trip for double occupancy is under $2,800 per person (this trip is being offered in 2019 right through the community travel agent where I live). On a positive note, I LOVED the trip itself. I loved seeing all the National Parks as well as other side trips. It was one of the best trips of my life but I am sure I could have had this same feeling with another tour company at a much lower cost.
Thank you for traveling with Collette to the National Parks. A member of the Guest Relations Team will be reaching out to discuss your feedback.

Favorite experience was Zion as it was one of the few places I hadn't been to. Also the north rim of the Grand Canyon. would suggest less time in Salt Lake City and more time in Yellowstone however

My favorite memory of this trip was the total immersion of the culture and geography of the area throughout the entire journey. The information provided by our tout manager, Lee, was interesting and thought provoking.

Spectacular Canyons, Amazing Sites, Excellent, Fun Nat'l Park's Tour

Trip Rating:
Our amazing Nat'l Parks tour was our 3rd Collette tour, and as expected we had an excellent tour mgr and guide. Haydee's super organizing skills and enthusiasm got us up about 5am each morning to be ready for another day of touring. Her frequent reminders to hydrate often was spot-on for the 1st part of the tour in VERY dry summer heat especially in AZ & UT, and in the higher altitudes and dry air as we traveled through astounding canyons, the Grand Tetons, Wyoming, Black Hills and SD. Even in some remote areas, we had necessary relief stops to break up a few longer drives, and the planned tour stops were wonderful. We could not stay on the bus at most stops, but we were never forced to do more than we each could handle at stops, where we could easily view scenes or take a certain amount of time for a short hike. Our coach driver, Darrel, was professional, courteous & helpful...an excellent driver on some challenging roads that wound around & up and down in changing terrain. Our hotels were always comfortable, even though about 3 were rustic due to tour location. Even with no A/C at Grand Canyon, the cabins ON the wooded, more quiet North Rim met our needs and offered views & walking trails not everybody sees. We enjoyed extending a day at the Alex Johnson Hotel in Rapid City SD, where we took in the July 4th fireworks on the horizon and city, all visible from the hotel rooftop restaurant & patio. A wonderful trip!

Spectacular Zion and Bryce Canyons, Grand Canyon, Grand Tetons, Black Hills, vistas as we drove. The 2 canyons, Zion and Bryce were probably the most surprising treat we experienced, though it was extremely hot and dry, those canyons were amazing. The Grand Tetons and also the drive from Cody WY to Rapid City, SD was my 1st time to see that beautiful area.

The trip was very well-planned and very, very well executed. Collette's access to the parks was exceptionally smooth. The bus travel included well-timed stops about every two hours, which contributed to everyone's comfort. The bus driver was very thoughtful and as well as exceptionally skilled. Hotels were very good. And perhaps the best for last, the trip manager, Haydee Schabelski, was truly exceptional!! Her knowledge of the parks and the terrine was informative and contributed greatly to the total experience. Haydee is an outstanding representative of Collette!!

The bus trip was our first and we were delighted with it. Everything was very well organized and our tour guide was very knowledgeable. She moved people around the bus in assigned seats so that we met everyone on our tour and also had an opportunity to view the scenery from various vantage points - great idea. The bus driver did a super job even on very difficult roads. There was a nice balance of driving and stops. We covered a lot of territory to see the national parks and it was spaced out very well. The hotels were uniformly good and the speed and efficiency of getting us to the rooms and getting our baggage to us was incredible. We would never have been able to see so many national parks without being on this kind of tour. One suggestion - give everyone a refillable water bottle instead of having everyone purchase water bottles each day. This would have saved over 400 plastic water bottles from the trash and there were easy places to refill them everywhere.

This is my 3rd trip with Collette and each one has been top-notch. The tour managers are well-organized and very knowledgeable, fun and willing to share info, make things fun with games and movies about what we are seeing. The overnight stays are usually in very nice places. They pack alot into the tour. Well done!

The scenery thru out the tour was spectacular. Each park was a little different experience, and each one was wonderful. Terrific tour manager, well organized, entertaining and informative. Great group of people on the tour. Could have done Salt Lake City in 1 overnight instead of 2, and stayed in rapid city for a night to tour that area. Great tour!

Great trip. Bus and bus driver were excellent. Our Collette tour director was also excellent and took good care of us the entire trip. This is a great way to see several of the national parks in one trip. Hotel accommodations were very good. Would highly recommend this trip to anyone who wants to see the west and leave the driving and details to someone else!

Same reasons as stated above. The most memorable experience was probably the rafting experience on the Snake River in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
