My advice is to rent a car and go on your own. That way you can see it at your own pace. It would probably be cheaper too.

I went the last time I was there and did just what the other poster said. I rented a car and drove around the park. It was beautiful and well worth the trip off the strip. There are many spots to pull over and explore a bit.

I don't think it would be as much fun with a tour operator.

Thanks for the suggestions, however, for various reasons, renting a car probably won't happen for me.

My husband is a tour guide for Pink Jeep. He gives a very thorough tour -- lots of history and geology. It's a 1/2 day outing, morning or afternoon. You get out of the vehicle at various spots, including the visitor center and along a 4X4 road. Plenty of good views and picture taking opportunities. You don't get a chance to hike or scramble on the rocks, though, or to stop for a picnic.
