Southwest National Parks and Canyons (Small Group)
Overview
Itinerary
Welcome to Las Vegas, where neon lights, incredible dining experiences and showstopping sights set the tone from the start. Expect big energy, bold sights and plenty of unforgettable moments. Meet your Travel Director for a first look at the adventure ahead, then dive straight into the fun your way. Wander the buzzing streets of Downtown, head for the legendary Strip or seek out a table with a view and toast your first night in Sin City.
Get ready for a big-hitting day of national park beauty. After a stop in Mesquite, roll on to Zion National Park where you'll take in soaring red and white cliffs and vast canyons. Enjoy lunch here, stop by the Visitor Centre, and take time to explore this desert wonder your way.
Later, continue to Bryce Canyon for the night. This evening, keep things relaxed or add a little Wild West fun with the optional Ebenezer's Dinner and Show.
Rise and shine for a day of red rock adventuring as you head into Bryce Canyon with your Travel Director. Get your camera ready for those famous multicoloured hoodoos, sweeping viewpoints and otherworldly landscapes. With free time around lunch, explore the canyon or saddle up for an optional horseback ride through Water Canyon Amphitheatre and Bristlecone Pine Ridge.
Later, travel on to Page for a dinner of your choice, or join an optional MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® Experience at Red Heritage, a Navajo owned and operated dinner show.
Today is yours to choose your own adventure. Keep things easy and explore Page at your own pace or consider two optional MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® Experiences. There's an Owl Slot Canyon hike in the morning, where you'll squeeze between narrow sandstone walls before free time in Page for lunch.
In the afternoon, you can opt to join a Monument Valley tour, which takes in one of the American Southwest's most iconic landscapes. In the evening, you'll return to Page for a dinner that suits you.
Travel through Northern Arizona, stopping at Cameron Trading Post, a Southwest landmark with Native American artwork and wide-open desert views. Onwards to the Grand Canyon, one of the USA's greatest sights. Carved by the Colorado River over millions of years, the mile-deep canyon serves up colourful rock layers, sweeping ridges and epic views. Join your Travel Director for sightseeing before learning more about the area with Canyon Tim. Continue to Williams, a nostalgic Route 66 town with bags of Arizona charm.
Head back into the Grand Canyon National Park today and choose to hike a rim trail, browse the historic lodge, rent a bike or simply find the perfect spot to watch the colours shift across the canyon walls. Want to take the views up a level? Choose an optional flight by helicopter or fixed wing aircraft, soaring over the South Rim, North Rim or Kaibab Plateau of this natural wonder. Later, return to Williams for an evening and dinner that suits you.
This morning, say farewell to Williams and roll West towards the bright lights of Las Vegas. Enjoy final desert views before saying goodbye to your Travel Director and newfound travel companions. Arrive in Las Vegas late morning, where your journey comes to an end with a drop-off at Las Vegas airport at approximately 11:00am
