Itinerary
  • Day 1: Las Vegas to Zion/Bryce - Nature’s Drama in Stone

    Welcome to canyon country. Your adventure begins with a scenic drive into Zion National Park, where towering cliffs of white, pink and red Navajo sandstone rise dramatically above the Virgin River. Whether you fancy a gentle stroll around the Emerald Pools, a stop at Weeping Rock, or simply soaking in the views of the Great White Throne, Zion offers hikes and highlights for all energy levels. Don't miss the Human History Museum for ranger talks and a deeper understanding of this ancient landscape.

     

    After around 2.5 hours exploring Zion, we continue to Bryce Canyon National Park, where nature’s creativity goes into overdrive. Bryce’s famous hoodoos — surreal red, orange and white spires — form one of the most unique landscapes in the American Southwest. It’s a photographer’s dream and a geologist’s playground. Round off the day with a relaxed BBQ and swap stories around the campfire with your fellow travellers.

     

    Hotel option: Best Western Ruby’s Inn – A comfortable 3-star base near the park entrance.

     

    Camping option: Stay at a full-service campground with electricity, Wi-Fi, hot showers and flush toilets. All gear is provided.

  • Day 2: Bryce - Monument Valley, Lake Powell & Antelope Canyon

    It’s a big day of epic scenery and unforgettable experiences. First up: Lake Powell and the chance to join an optional tour of the world-famous Antelope Canyon, where sunlight beams through narrow red rock corridors.

     

    Then it’s onwards to Monument Valley, one of the most iconic landscapes in America and a place that’s featured in countless Westerns. You’ll enjoy an included guided 4x4 tour led by a local Navajo guide – a highlight for many.
