Welcome to Las Vegas! The real wild west is home to some of the USA’s most incredible scenery. Your adventure begins with a welcome meeting at 6 pm tonight to meet your leader and fellow travellers. If you arrive early, there’s plenty to do – maybe wander along the famous strip, be entertained by impersonators and street performers, or catch a live show. After your meeting, maybe head out to dinner with the group to get to know your new travel mates. It’s very important that you attend the welcome meeting as we will be collecting insurance and emergency contact information at this time. Ask reception or look for a note in the lobby for more information on where the meeting will take place.

Hop in a private van to Zion National Park today and join your leader for an exploration in the wild landscapes of the park on a guided hike. Zion is known for its towering sandstone cliffs and maze of narrow canyons, and you’ll get to see it for yourself as you hike right through the middle of it all. Then, spend the night in Springdale – the gateway to the park. Your travel time today will be approximately 3 hours. Your hiking distance and time today will depend on the group's interest and ability but will typically be on either the Emerald Pools trail or the Watchman trail. These trails are easy to moderate and approximately 4.8 km (3 mi) with about 109 m (350 ft) of elevation gain.

After breakfast this morning, it’s time to head to Bryce Canyon National Park. Take a short drive in your private vehicle, then spend the morning hiking through the landscapes of the park. Walk along the canyon rim and stare up at hundreds of unique sandstone towers known as hoodoos that jut out from the natural amphitheatre. After, break for lunch and take in your surroundings, then hike down into the canyon for a closer look at the hoodoos. Then, drive on to the town of Page, where you’ll spend the night. Your total travel time today is approximately 5 hours. Today's hiking distance is 4.8 km (3 mi) with 137 m (450 ft) of elevation gain. Bryce Canyon is situated at 2440 m (8000 ft) above sea level. You can expect cooler temperatures, thinner and dryer air than elsewhere on this trip. Make sure you stay hydrated while hiking in the park.

This morning, join a local Navajo guide for an adventure through Lower Antelope Canyon – known for its wave-like structure and the distinct light beams that shine down into the canyon’s openings. Learn how the Navajo culture has thrived in the region, then set out for a gentle walk along Horsehoe Bend before returning to Page for the evening. Your walking distance will be approximately 4.8 km (3 mi) with minimal elevation gain. The slot canyon has ladders, steps and loose sand, so we recommend you wear closed-toed shoes.

Start the day with a drive to Monument Valley – one of the world’s most iconic sights. If this landscape dotted with towering sandstone buttes looks familiar, that’s because Monument Valley has been the filming location for lots of famous Western films. More importantly, this is the native land of the Navajo. When you arrive, you’ll hop in a 4WD for a Navajo-guided tour, where you’ll have the chance to learn more about their culture and history before sitting down to a traditional home-cooked, family-style Navajo lunch. After, continue your journey to the iconic Grand Canyon for some walks along the rim at sunset. Your total travel time today is approximately 5 hours. We aim to experience either sunset or sunrise at the Grand Canyon rim, depending on season. During spring and fall when the sun sets earlier and rises later, we typically visit for sunrise on Day 5. During the summer months we visit for sunset on Day 4.

This morning it's time to return to Las Vegas. You’ll make a stop on the way along Historic Route 66, then you’ll arrive back in Las Vegas where your adventure will come to an end around 4pm. If you’d like to extend your stay, just get in touch with your booking agent ahead of time. Your total travel time today is approximately 4.5 hours. There is no accommodation included in Las Vegas tonight, but it’s recommended that you extend your stay and explore the city at your own pace.
