Trip Informations
Why you’ll love this trip
Hike through the varied landscapes of Zion National Park, taking in the views of massive canyon walls and red sandstone cliffs along the way.
Learn about the culture and history of Monument Valley during a Navajo guided tour, followed by a traditional home-cooked, family-style Navajo lunch.
Stroll along the canyon rim in Bryce Canyon National Park to see the sandstone spires known as hoodoos.
Kayak across the waters of Lake Powell, around its fascinating rock formations while your leader shares stories of the lake’s history.
Visit one of the nation’s greatest national parks – the Grand Canyon – and walk along the rim, hike into the canyon or watch epic sunset or sunrise (depending on the season).
Is this trip right for you?
This is a fast-paced trip that covers a lot of ground in a short time. You'll be travelling in a private vehicle with your group. Extra space can be tight, and conditions may feel a little cramped. It’s all part of the adventure and a great way to get to know your fellow travellers. Please read the itinerary carefully for travel time estimates.
The trip involves a lot of walking through Zion National Park and Bryce National Park, so be prepared with hiking shoes, a water bottle and day pack.
Lunches will be simple picnic style so maybe bring some of your own snacks if you think you’ll get hungry between meals.
You will be travelling to the desert, which means it is often very warm during the day but cold at night, so make sure you pack the appropriate clothing for all weather.
You may also want to check out our Best of Western USA if you have a longer time to explore the region. See Trip Code SSEPC on the website.

I have travelled with Intrepid before and had a lovely time, however this trip to USA Western National Parks is not ready for paying customers. The places were great, and I enjoyed my travel companions, but do not waste your money until Intrepid figures out the logistics better.
