Today you’ll arrive in Las Vegas, a desert oasis of neon lights, non-stop excitement and tons of fun around every corner. You’ll have ample free time this evening to experience the sights and sounds of this wonderland first hand. You may wish to walk the famous Strip lined with mega-resorts, place a bet at one of the many casinos, dine at world-class restaurants, catch the latest star-studded show, or enjoy breathtaking views during a 30-minute ride on the all-new, 550-foot tall “High Roller”… the world’s tallest observation wheel and the most exciting attraction to…
Las Vegas/Zion National Park/Bryce Canyon
Today your adventure begins in earnest. Leave the bright lights of Vegas behind as you travel across the desert to the magnificent Zion National Park. You’ll enjoy a three hour guided hike and see the stunning sandstone cliffs surround you as you explore the majesty of the park. Visitors to Zion park ride environmentally friendly shuttles through the most scenic areas of the park. And there are many hiking trails that allow you to explore at your own pace. You’ll then continue to the equally impressive Bryce Canyon where wind and rain have carved spires from the red rocks. This…
Moab
Today is a day to explore the beautiful National Parks at your leisure. We suggest a visit to Arches National Park, one of Utah’s Mighty 5. Once in the park, you’ll discover a landscape of contrasting colors, landform and textures unlike any other in the world. With over 2,000 natural stone arches, in addition to hundreds of soaring pinnacles and giant balance rocks, this red rock wonderland will amaze you with its formations and inspire you with its most unique scenery. In the summer months, you’re invited to join the group for guided stargazing at night.

You will be able to enjoy the Grand Canyon at your leisure. There is so much to do — you may choose to take a long walk, perhaps on the Rim Trail, or take a guided 2.5 hour optional bike Tour. Another great way to see the canyon is by taking a helicopter flight to…
