We had a great time on this Great American Desert trip. was a great travel director. He was on top of things. We did not know what to expect regarding the deserts. Glad we went in March as it was not hot. We had good weather. We learned a lot. I didn't know why they called Borax - 20 Team Borax and now I know.

I loved this trip! Seeing the national parks was a huge bucket list moment for me and I met some of my best friends on this trip. Denver was a waste—not much to do there and I wish we’d spent more time in the actual national parks versus all the time spent in Amarillo, Albuquerque, and Denver. Our guide, was incredible although a little unprofessional with language but she was so cool. Definitely recommend!

The Miami to Dallas Trip is well worth it, you'll have fun no matter what. This trip is part of a moduled trip that has a much longer adventure, this particular trip is the first half of a much longer adventure which I'd suggest on taking if you are able to take it.
Contiki did a great job on curating a perfect iterinary and planned dinners and the Trip leader I had was amazing and really made sure to go that extra mile along with the Driver who was more than happy on driving our group around.
I will highly advise on doing all the free time add-ons and working with your tour guide on coordinating with your group on spontaneous adventures too like rodeos and unplanned adventures.
You'll make friends and for sure you'll have a great adventure!
