Very nice guide and knew the whole valley very well. He gave us very good explanations and always offered us water. It was just what I expected. As for the valley, it is worth seeing but beware of the sun. It is better to go covered and with sun cream.

Simply outstanding. See the gorgeous and startling Death Valley, from sand dunes to the ghost town, salt flats and more, Astonishing natural beauty at every turn narrated with fascinating facts, and interesting stories. Brian and Jason shared secret areas they've found and brought the park to life with delightful anecdotes and surprises in a sparkling clean van (or bus). The perfect way to spend a day away from the Strip. Loved this tour, thank you guys!

Absolutely charismatic driver and guide. Awesome views. And very comfortable bus. Before I already visited Death Valley with other agency and bus was awful. This bus has soft seats and a lot of space between seats
