Hi, I did this tour in September 2012, and it as absolutely fantastic. Las Vegas was awesome, but not really my cup of tea - described as Blackpool on speed! I am so glad I have been though. Grand Canyon was fantastic. My fave places were Palm Springs and San Francisco. I went to Alcatraz independently, which I pre-booked before I went, which was also fantastic. Universal Studios was also manic - depends what you like (I wish I hadn't bothered with that). It is a very busy holiday, you see so much and the guide was brilliant. I would thoroughly recommend this tour. Enjoy. Xx
