Trip Informations
Why you’ll love this trip
Hike through the varied landscapes of Zion National Park, taking in views of massive canyon walls and red sandstone cliffs as you go.
Learn about the culture and history of Monument Valley during a Navajo guided tour, followed by a traditional homecooked, family-style Navajo lunch.
Stroll along the canyon rim in Bryce Canyon National Park to admire the out-of-this-world sandstone spires known as hoodoos.
Kayak across the waters of Lake Powell, weaving your way past fascinating rock formations as your leader shares stories of the lake’s history.
Marvel at one of the nation’s greatest national parks, The Grand Canyon, and walk along the rim, hike into the canyon or take in an epic sunset or sunrise (depending on season)
By travelling on this trip, you’ll learn about our Tuuur Foundation partner, the Grand Canyon Conservancy. Donations help them protect Grand Canyon National Park and support trail restoration, conservation of native plants and wildlife, and educational programs. Tuuur will double the impact by dollar-matching all post-trip donations made to The Tuuur Foundation.
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 perhaps bring some of your own snacks if you think you’ll get hungry between meals.
We 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.

Grata trio and definatelt recommend this. It would be great if the antelope canyon was included in this so you could do this in the morning with the more dramatic sunlight than the free slot in the afternoon which is good… but not the best!

A great way to travel as a solo traveller with a diverse and fun group of people from around the world. This trip packs a lot into 5 days, a snapshot of so many destinations, some of which I had never heard of before. Visited some spectacular sites and enjoyed all the included activities, from hiking to kayaking as well as seeing some beautiful sunsets and sunrises at various destinations. Our guide Chloe was enthusiastic and informative, with a lot of knowledge about our destinations which she was happy to share with us. This trip was full on and quite exhausting, but loved every minute of it.

The Intrepid Western National Park trip is great! These are awesome parks to visit, and being part of an organized trip really makes a difference. I'm really glad I chose Intrepid and would definitely travel with them again.

I’ve never traveled on my own ever, and I’m so glad my first time was with intrepid. The tour across the canyons, the kayaking, and meeting the Navajos was an amazing experience. My tour guide Claire was beyond wonderful, and I can’t wait to see more!

First time on an Intrepid tour and it did not disappoint! Well organized, nice accommodations, and great guide only enhanced the magnificent parks, views, sights and experiences! I'd do it again.

I really liked the variety of activities offered by this trip and the opportunity to check off so many things on my bucket list! Everything was well organized and timed - it would have been challenging to plan out an agenda like this myself. Bryce Canyon surprised me by being my favorite part of the trip - so beautiful! Our guide, Chris, had great energy and positivity and was very attentive to the ability level of the group members.

This was my first trip with Intrepid and needless to say, loved every bit of it! We had a fantastic group and our group leader Chris was phenomenal. The itinerary was perfect and the stops were very well planned. The only feedback I have - Antelope canyon should be included in the itinerary and not optional. Also, the last day with monument valley and Grand Canyon could use a hike instead of just a walk. Everything else was 10/10
