This was an interesting way to see California at a very fast pace.
If it was on the printed itinerary you saw it and was told about it, if it popped up along the way, no one knew what it was. EG, the Dam for the water supply to LA was not ..commented on until I asked about it. As was the area of the Bay of San Francisco where the land was divided into squares beside a very low roadway, on the way to Stamford University. No one knew why.
We had been warned about the dual language, english/chinese so this was not a drama, in fact was very interesting.
The guides, on the whole were good, with Michael, the guide we had to San Francisco, Yosemite and back to LA, exceptional.
The accommodation everywhere was comfortable.
The availability of food on the tour became repetetive with repeated visits to Chinese Buffets. I am sure even the Chinese people on the tour became frustrated with this.. After the 3rd one, we gave up and ate away from the tour for lunches etc.
The only complaint I would have with any of the Hotels we stayed at would be that the Howard Johson Hotel at Anaheim seemed very slapdash about making their dinner menu available and treated you with surprise that you would want to eat there. Often the food on the menu was not available after the orders were taken.
Those things aside, we enjoyed the tour very much and would use the company again.
Be aware that on top of the cost of the tour you will be required to pay a fee to the tour bus driver and tour guide every day. This is in small print on your itinerary and adds quite considerably to the costs you will incur. It would be better if these charges were included in the cost of the tour.Read full review
This tour was competitively priced, very well planned and coordinated and best of all we had a very great tour guide, Ms. Lily from CJ Tours. Ms. Lily not only was able to communicate both in Chinese and English, she was very professional a..nd knowledgable about the tour and most of all, took the trouble to make sure we had a good time. I strongly recommend anyone who wants to go on a guided tour to book through Tours4Fun.Read full review

I want to share with you all that this by far is a great deal for the family or any single person. I went with a friend and we had a good time. The tour guide Kevin from bus #777 11/21/10 He was cool and the tour was bilingual in Chinese an..d English. Kevin is a very good tour guide.
The bus was clean and on time. Our food stop were buffets for a cheap price of $10.00 all you can eat and drink though it was Asian food they had, Thai food, Chinese it was good.
After we arrive at our hotel in Las Vegas the rooms were nice and clean as well, we had the rest of the day to enjoy Las Vegas Strip or if you wanted to go on their special tour or entertainment it would be $25 each one It is OPTIONAL. I choose to enjoy the strip.
Then we had a wake up call and we had the OPTION to go the west part of the Grand Canyon $69 for the entrance and a free meal. The Skywalk was $32 but you could not take picture inside the skylwalk bridge, there were staff who took picture of you BUT you had to pay another $30 for that picture OR go to the North Canyon were it was free but a longer drive to get there OR you can stay at the Hotel and enjoy the strip.
I chose to go to the west point and paid the $69 and got to enjoy 2 more other places to take good pictures for 4hrs. We then headed to Hoover Dam for 30min and left back to our hotel and we had the rest of the night. I wanted to visit the center of Hoover Dam but
we only saw it from the distance.
We got another wake up call and headed to Ethel's Chocolate factory in the morning for 45min only, it was really small and they gave us 4 pieces of free chocolate samples, though you were only allowed to get one. We saw the cactus garden it was okay since it was also small.
Then we went got to the OUTLETS and that was fun!! We were given a VIP sticker that will give us a 10% off any iteam besides from the big sales they had!!!! Trust me take extra money they have good deals!!!!
Over all I loved my trip it was very comfortable and Its a great deal!!!!
The Hotel was near everything you could think of even a CVS that was open 24hrs. I recommend this trip Five Stars!!! We got home safe and sound. Oops I almost forgot that you should pack really light and take your camara and charger. YOU wont regret it!!!!Read full review

This tour was full of fun! The places we visited were definately the best places to go on the west side of the U'states. The tour guides were also friendly and always willing to help. However, information given by the tour guide was a littl..e hard to understand or confusing at times. Read full review
I and my wife, aged 62@@plush; undertook package tours of East Coast, West Coast and Orlando. The tours were conducted in good buses with polite and respectful guides. Very good accommodations and daily stress free touring and traveling. Th..e tours are quite economical also and satisfies all the needs of a traveller including those from other countries. I wish Tours4fun all the best and recommend reviewers to book tours with Tours4fun.

The night in Las Vegas was great but I enjoyed the Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam part. One is master peace of nature and the other is the wisdom of human. What a miracle! It really needs courage to stand on the "Skywalk" overlooking the mount..ain and river, it's awesome!Read full review
The whole tour was incredibly well organized, no matter on the bus or the night stay in Las Vegas we had a lot of things to enjoy. I liked sitting in the bus viewing the beautiful mountain and then Mojave Desert. The show in Las Vegas was w..onderful. We had a stop in Ethel M's Chocolate Factory; my son was busy with tasting chocolates with all kinds of shape, he was so happy with that!Read full review
I like all things in Las Vegas: marvelous constructions, bright and luminous lights, enthusiastic people. I am sure it is the best place for night. The Grand Canyon is gorgeous. We took the Skywalk, it's breathtaking but stimulating. Once g..o there you have to have a try. You will never see the wonder of nature elsewhere.Read full review
I took the helicopter ride; it took additional fee but really worthy! You may never have the view from other angle. My girlfriend got crazy about the tour. Next time I will take the boat!
Everything in Las Vegas is amazing. Even though I'm not willing to participate in gambling for my entire life, I still enjoy seeing it. The part I like most is shopping. I think Las Vegas is the heaven of shopping. And I like evening there,.. it makes you feel that it's a special holiday there and it will never end.Read full review
I have not tried the tour but 6 of my friends tried it and they have enjoyed it a lot ,very organized and reasonable prices compared to self arranged tours...I'm going to have the same tour for my spring break the upcoming March and can not.. wait to see all the places my friends talked to me about and showed me in their pictures.Read full review
We would like to give some feedback regarding the tour 7-day tour from LA to Grand Canyon, Las Vegas, San Francisco, tour code USLA2-604. The tour took place from Oct. 20-26 2009. The weekly tour consisted of two parts, guided by two tour g..uides.
We would like to express our gratitude to the second tour guide, Mr. Mark Ma, who took us from LA to Solvang, Hearst Castle, San Francisco and Yosemite national Park. The tour lasted from Oct. 24-26. Mr. Ma is a very professional tour guide, possessing a great deal of knowledge, which he very skillfully presented to the participants of the tour. Mr. Ma is very competent regarding every aspect of the tour: speaking about the history and present situation as well as background information about the sites, showing excellent organizational skills and creating a friendly atmosphere during the whole tour. This includes being of assistance in any necessary way, playing appropriate music which originated from the region and showing nature films about the places visited.
Please give our special thanks to Mr. Ma, who made the tour most enjoyable for us.Read full review
