The Great Explorer

(Translated by Google) We had a self drive to; the card with motorhome and we liked the quality service providers chosen by AuthentikUSA: Apollo for motorhomes, and campsites, especially KOAs. Very good documentation provided too and good choice of cards. Unfortunately we missed the appointment for the guided tour of San Francisco but it was our fault.

Only small hiccup when we arrived at the KOA in Salt Lake City which did not have our reservation but everything was settled. between Authentik Usa and the campsite and we have not been bothered at all. Not enough information maybe for the crossing of the Golden gate bridge...

A special thank you to; Jim from Mad River boat trips to; Jackson Hole, Wyoming for a great experience with kids rafting on the Snake River.

(Translated by Google) Reservations guaranteed in full compliance. Punctuality services.

At the transport level, Fox is still low cost, even if the vehicle received and used is low cost. was everything do okay. The Fox offices at; Denver are of more than minimum standard, but ç the assumption of responsibility (if I compare to Avis and others. The fact of guaranteeing $250 and reimbursing after a few days is not practiced among adults, a card imprint is generally sufficient. Overbilling by Fox toll roads.

Accommodation level: - Hotel Grand Vista at; Grand Junction: uninteresting, run-down hotel. Corresponds to; many Trip Advisor reviews. - Lodge Red Cliffs near Moab: nothing to miss; say it again, excellent++, great area of Utah. - Lodge Goulding's at Monument Valley: same. A little factory at; tourists in this area .... - Grand Hôtel à; Tusayan near the grand canyon: disappointing, only factory to buy; tourist, no fridge in the room, which seems to be standard normally. Trip Advisor reviews a bit along these lines as well. - Econolodge at; Cortez: everything actually decent for the cheap price paid. - The Cliff House at Pikes Peak (Manitou Springs): almost a 5 star, more than excellent and not expensive for the service given, truly exceptional. A general comment in your reservations. Except at Monument Valley, all the rooms had two queen beds that were not too wide, never a large King bed. Why don't you book rooms with a king size bed for a couple like us? This surprises us. The last two hotels booked also show on the voucher a "double bed" reservation but we were able to change on the spot.

On the road book & On the date of this August 20, there is a BIG error in the mileage. You indicate 140 km when there is almost double that... it also appears on your website. In addition, the Grand Canyon hotel is not located in the Grand Canyon but at the Grand Canyon. Tusayan. It's really not clear to follow your explanations .... I already had; reported during a trip to Quebec 2 years ago, and I'm not the only one, that your Google Map itinerary is far too small to read, so not easily usable. And not very practical. A good map, aided by a GPS, helps us more effectively.

Organization: We can trust you

(Translated by Google) Don't change anything! The circuit is extremely complete and assembled. with great relevance. It allows an exhaustive discovery of the parks of the west and the main cities. The chronology of the succession of stages is very well thought out. The choice of accommodation is good: well-placed campsites, the same for hotels. And at inside the campsites, very pleasant pitches. Solid organization, no hiccups, we were expected to come. each step. When we needed help picking up the camping gear that had arrived. late, we felt supported by both Mrs. Boucher and Mr. Boileau of Windigo adventures and the problem was resolved. efficiently taken care of.

1st night in Denver in a badly located hotel. : in an industrial zone, far from the city centre. Home unfriendly, staff not very present.

Camping equipment would be at your disposal. deliver directly to the 1st hotel to avoid travel to FEDEX and in fact this is what happened for us in part.

It would be useful to re-specify in the travel diary the instructions to be followed. follow for camping gear drop-off at the Fedex counter at; the end of the circuit. Our instructions were in an envelope in the crockery crate that we hadn't looked at in detail because we didn't know they were there, and therefore a bit of a panic in the end!

Thanks to; William Burnet of Gocalifornia.com for the discovery at; foot of dense San Francisco with an original and very complete approach. Lively, spontaneous explanations and very good interpersonal skills. [...]

(Translated by Google) We are really very satisfied with our trip. On the other hand, restitution too far away. from San Francisco to; San Leandro 30 MN BY ROAD, we lost more than half a day.

Accommodation at; San Francisco sucks a parking space - no table - no barbecue.
/> Very well done travel diary, road book - map - everything was perfect.

Pay attention to; Return: Go around the vehicle well beforehand and above all sign the slightest fault on the takeover form.

Michèle has been to listening to our desires and we concocted a perfect itinerary - Thank you [...]

(Translated by Google) We appreciated the road book, the maps and the kindness of the people on the phone. The hotels in general were very good.

Small problem with FOX which had not included the GPS and on the return problem of reimbursement of the deposit. Big problem at the comfort inn in Denver, which did not have our reservation for the first night and which had lost our package containing our entire travel diary. Very unfriendly welcome from the manager. Hotel too noisy, too close to the highway.

Accommodation fine. We regret having spent 3 days to Cody to go to Yellowstone which is really far and which caused 2 round trip and another one to get to; Grand Tetons. Why did you choose a hotel in Tuba city which made us go back and forth to go to; Monument Valley? Hotel super 8 à; Very average Moab.

Very good travel diary and excellent organization.

Michelle Boucher of authentic USA is very keen on listening, warm and available responding to all our questions. [...]

(Translated by Google) What an exceptional journey we have had! We really had the chance to see the most beautiful destinations in the Southwest of the United States and we have unforgettable memories! We liked diversity accommodation, organization and travel advice before departure. Thank you for helping us. to make our dream come true!

(Translated by Google) Good choice of quality providers for accommodation.
