Itinerary / more information

  • 1 - Las Vegas Welcome to Las Vegas! The real wild west is home to some of the USA's most incredible scenery. Your adventure begins with a welcome meeting at 8 am. Then, you'll hop aboard a private van. Get to know each other over a picnic lunch, then venture into the stunning landscapes of Zion National Park. Join your leader for a guided hike, then spend the night in Springdale - known as the gateway to the park.
  • 2 - Bryce Canyon National Park After breakfast this morning, it's time to make tracks for Bryce Canyon National Park - make sure your camera is ready to go, as some of the views you'll come across today are truly out of this world! Take a short drive in your private vehicle, then spend the morning hiking through the epic landscapes of the park. Walk along the canyon rim and marvel at hundreds of unique sandstone towers, known as hoodoos, that jut out from the natural amphitheatre. Relax while you enjoy a picnic lunch and take in your magnificent surroundings, then hike down into the canyon for a closer look at the fascinating hoodoos. Then, drive on to the town of Page, where you'll spend the night.
  • 3 - Lake Powell Journey south this morning, driving through more spectacular scenery before arriving at Lake Powell. This gorgeous reservoir is certainly a sight to behold from the shore but to really appreciate it, you've got to get on the water. Jump in a kayak and paddle across the water's surface, weaving your way through remarkable rock formations while your leader regales you with stories of the lake's history. Back on dry land, set out for a gentle walk along Horseshoe Bend, taking in beautiful views with every step. This afternoon there is an option to visit Antelope Canyon before returning to Page for the evening.
  • 4 - Monument Valley Start the day with a drive to Monument Valley - one of the world's most iconic sights. If this landscape dotted with towering sandstone buttes looks familiar to you, it's no surprise - Monument Valley has been the filming location for many famous Western films. More importantly, this is the native land of the Navajo. When you arrive, you'll transfer from your vehicle to a 4WD and enjoy a Navajo-guided tour of Monument Valley, where you'll have the chance to learn more about their rich culture and history in the area before sitting down to a traditional homecooked, family-style Navajo lunch. Continue your journey onto the iconic Grand Canyon for some awe-inspiring walks along the rim.
  • 5 - Route 66 This morning it's time to return to Las Vegas, but first we'll make a stop along Historic Route 66. You'll arrive back in Las Vegas at approximately 4 pm where your adventure will come to an end.
