Hotel: Paris, Las Vegas
Day 2
LAS VEGAS – MONTEZUMA CASTLE – SEDONA
Leaving behind the bright lights of Las Vegas, travel along parts of the historic Route 66 into the desert landscapes of central Arizona. View the ancient cliff dwellings at Montezuma Castle National Monument before winding through some of the West’s most famous scenery in Red Rock Country. Arrive at the quaint town of Sedona, an eclectic mix of Western, Native and New Age cultures. (FB, D)
Hotel: Poco Diablo Resort
Day 3
SEDONA – GRAND CANYON NATIONAL PARK
Enjoy free time in Sedona to shop, visit the town’s many art galleries or join an optional jeep tour through the countryside. Then climb through the dramatic Oak Creek Canyon, with incredible views looking back over Sedona and Red Rock Country. Continue into the pine-covered Kaibab Plateau for your first view of the amazing Grand Canyon at Mather Point. Enjoy the changing views of this natural wonder as you travel along the South Rim. You’ll become rock experts, learning from a local specialist who relays the story of the formation of the immense 1.7 billion year-old
canyon carved by the Colorado River. Examine samples from the multi-coloured sedimentary layers formed one on top of the other as the seas encroached again and again. As the sun sets, join your Tour Director on a stroll along the rim and watch the colours change on the canyon’s walls. Tonight, enjoy your stay inside the heart of the park. (FB) Hotel: National Park Lodges (NP)
Day 4
GRAND CANYON – NAVAJO COUNTRY – LAKE POWELL
There is time this morning to admire the canyon’s amazing colours in the sunrise light. Or for an entirely different perspective, why not take an optional flightseeing tour for a spectacular bird’s eye view of the Grand Canyon? Journey east into the vast Navajo Indian Reservation and stop at a historic Indian trading post with a chance to purchase native handicrafts. Then it’s on through the Painted Desert to Glen Canyon Dam, spanning the Colorado River and backing up its waters to form the magnificent Lake Powell. With over 1,900 miles of towering sandstone shoreline,
the lake’s deep blue waters fill thousands of tiny fingers and hidden coves. There is time for an optional cruise on the lake before tonight’s dinner at the lakefront hotel. Afterwards, take an in-depth look at the striking geology and survival strategies of the desert wildlife of the Canyonlands and the Colorado Plateau with a fascinating lecture and slide show presented by an expert naturalist. (FB, D)
Hotel: Lake Powell Resort
Day 5
Lake Powell Free Time
The day is yours. Rise early for an adventurous hike or kick back in the sun on the shores of this 186-mile-long lake, formed by the Glen Canyon Dam. Gather some of your travelling companions for an optional raft down one of the prettiest sections of the Colorado River or a scenic cruise on the lake, visiting magnificent Antelope Canyon. If you want to hit the water, go kayaking or fish for striped bass and bluegill in one of the lake’s glittering bays. (FB)
Day 6
LAKE POWELL – BRYCE CANYON & ZION NATIONAL PARKS (2 nights)
The incredible beauty of Utah comes to life today. On arrival at Bryce Canyon National Park, view the otherworldly collection of pink, orange, and red sandstone spires called hoodoos. Travel along the rim of the amphitheatre and marvel at the magnificent formations carved by Mother Nature into a fantastic landscape of fairytale castles, cathedrals and a maze of trails and hideaways. Continuing on, drive through some of the West’s most breathtaking scenery. View the Checkerboard Mesa, one of Zion’s most famous landmarks, and arrive at the impressive Zion
Canyon. Witness the amazing results of millions of years of erosion, including the Great Arch of Zion. Check in at your hotel where every room offers incredible canyon country views. (FB)
Hotel: The Majestic View Lodge
Day 7
ZION NATIONAL PARK SIGHTSEEING & AT LEISURE
You have the entire day to explore Zion National Park, a virtual “Garden of Eden,” often said to be the most beautiful place in the USA. After a stop at the Visitors Center, explore Zion Canyon at your leisure aboard the park’s complimentary shuttles and discover this masterpiece of deep red canyons, mesas, buttes, massive monoliths and colourful towering cliffs rising steeply one-half mile above the lush greenery of the canyon floor. The afternoon is at leisure in Zion. Perhaps take a hike to Emerald Pools or up to Angels Landing for breathtaking views, or walk through the Virgin River Narrows. This evening join your newfound friends for a Farewell Dinner. (FB, FD)
