I joined 7 days tour for yellow stone, Las Vegas tour and back to LA. This is the worst tour I have in these forty years. The only job tour guide did was ask you to pay 7 days tips on the first day and almost did nothing as a tour guide should do during the whole journey. No or minimal explanation of scene, very late statement on weather for clothing. He and the driver also Leave the whole tour at the motel without restaurant at 10pm where there was no restaurants open in walking distance at that time, whilst the whole tour have not had dinner who were freezing and starving. They even not dive us to the restaurants with 8 min drive.

Horrible tour I would not recommend
7-Day Southern Experience, Atlanta, New Orleans, St. Louis Tour from Chicago
Horrible tour I would not recommend to anyone. They will drop you at deplorable accommodation that is less than 2 stars. Dirty places, drunk people in next room with connecting door, and your room is on street level and open to public. First time we stayed in accommodation like this (Red inn) we were very unhappy and notified our tour guide. Second time it happened, and the place was even worse (Day inn, Elizabethtown KY). Our tour guide tried to help us rectify the situation, but the company does not care about their customers or their safety. Once they have their money they do not care about you at all. We rebooked a room at the hotel they had listed on this website as potential accommodation (Ramada, just down the road) and the quality of this place was significantly better than the dump they had booked us in (clear, secure, no drunk rowdy neighbours or unmade beds that had been slept in). They advertise like they give you decent accommodation and then drop you somewhere horrible and offer no assistance. Really terrible company and the people working for them should be ashamed.
Tour itself is just an endless drive. No information about where you visit, uncomfortable seats and you will get no answers to questions about the stuff you are asked to pay for. You will just be told to give them the money.
Save yourself the time, money and effort and do not book with this terrible company. They really ruined our holiday and are despicable people.

Take tours booked a holiday for us with…US West Coast Holidays
Take tours booked a holiday for us with a crowd called US West Coast Holidays. The company in question were very unprofessional. Upon arrival at the pick up point, the bus was late.The tour guide (Rebecca) didn't want to see our ID or take our confirmation voucher. Her commentary was abrupt, rude and absolutely disgraceful. My wife has been a Professional travel agent for 20 years, and has never seen anything like it. On the bus, the guide only wanted cash from us. She would not answer questions related to the tour, she would reluctantly repeat a query as we could not hear her clearly over the bus comms system. This is only day 1. We had 3 further days of this with a different guide every day. I am happy to discuss this further with somebody from Take Tours. Seriously the worst trip we have EVER been on. We are actively turning people away from using US West Coast Tours and Take Tours. DONT BOOK WITH THIS CROWD!!!!

HORRIBLE!
HORRIBLE!! Went on 2 different take tours and regret it. Tour guides were horrible. They rip you off so bad. One example is making us pay $110 for antelope canyon when it was actually $48. They did this for everywhere we went. One guide (called Harry I think) continuously yelled in people’s faces for no reason. He yelled at me GIVE ME MONEY over and over and I had no idea what he was talking about. Don’t go on it

The worst tour ever
The worst tour ever. Our tour guide, Winter Zhang, is really rude and bossy. He has no manner at all. He threw our hotel key to our faces and made us pick it up from the floor. We were just few steps away from him, he could wait and let us go and take it from him if he doesn’t want to walk toward us.
He is also unhelpful and not friendly. He made that annoy face when we asked him for question when we are not clear. Really the worst trip i ever joined.
The tour also collect extra fee. The entrance fees are cheaper if you buy it yourself. They also forcefully asking for money for the Saint Joseph’s Oratory (it’s actually free).
Don’t join this tour or you’ll regret

Worst trip ever
Worst trip ever. Total hours spent on attractions/vacation on this 3 day tour was 10.42 hour (excluding food time). This is an extremely unfair/disappointing amount. I felt the trip was very rushed and last day was a complete waste. I was very disappointed with the service provided. Our tour guide didn't do his diligence and driver only care to not exceed his work hours.

We had the worst tour experience ever! Avoid Take tours
We had the worst tour experience ever. The tour guide Zack Wang did not have any skill set to get be a tour guide. He was very Rude, very impolite. We had some senior citizens with us and he did respect them and was very Rude. He did not give any background about the tour. He was only talking about back time. He did not know English. He Coudnt understand what we are saying. He kept rushing us everywhere but he was always late to pick us up from the stops. The hotel accommodation was pathetic we had roaches in the rooms. It was horrible. Take tours needs to take strict action against Zack Wang who has been extremly rude and had threatened us mutiple times that he would leave us and go and we had to take uber and be back. We felt very threatened and horrified.

Wish I could give them minus one star
Wish I could give them minus one star. I bought a cruise for two from Pier 83, Manhattan to Bear Mountain. First of all, the indicated this location at the West end of Houston Street when it is on the West Side Highway and 42nd Street. Secondly, there was NO BOAT to Bear Mountain, period. They sold me a ticket for a nonexistent boat. I am currently trying to get Amex to rescue me from this swindle.
