Situated in some of the most spectacular settings in the
Southwest, enjoy active days and comfortable nights -
the perfect combination to sample the very best of this
incomparable region.

Zion National Park mixes peaceful beauty with powerful landscapes. The tree-lined Virgin River supports fragile flora and fauna as it meanders below massive, cathedral-like, sandstone walls soaring several thousand feet into the sky.

With its soaring cliffs and cascading waterfalls, Zion National Park is one of the Southwest’s most beautiful and dynamic places. There is a variety of trails to choose from and you will have plenty of opportunities to explore. Warm up with a gentle walk to Lower Emerald pool and then continue on to the sparkling Upper Emerald pools, passing a waterfall along the way to discover Zion’s “beach.”

If you are feeling ambitious, enjoy the park’s most famous challenge, Angel’s Landing, and after a beautiful but strenuous hike along the knife-edge ridgeline, you will be rewarded with one of the most breathtaking, powerful panoramas you will ever experience.

"Mysterious", "breathtaking", "out of this world", are only a few of the descriptions offered by past visitors to Bryce Canyon National Park. For close up views, we allow plenty of time to take advantage of the park's incredible system of trails, ranging from the easy Rim Trail to the moderate Queen's Garden Trail to the strenuous Peek-a-boo Loop. Wherever you walk, you will encounter a kaleidoscope of colours and a fantasyland of rock spires that will leave you searching for your own way to describe this 'indescribable' place.

Next, enter a special land - Monument Valley, home of the Navajo and a perfect setting for incredible sunsets and sunrises. Take a guided jeep tour into seldom-visited areas where you will experience an incredible array of monumental rock formations and a rich Native American culture.

Afterwards, it is on to Grand Canyon National Park, where an introduction is hardly necessary but a two-night stop certainly is! Walk the rim or hike down a trail, take in a scenic flight - or simply relax at the edge and of the vast natural wonder.

On the last day we head back to civilisation and the bright lights of Las Vegas for the end of our adventure in the Canyons and Indian lands of the Great American Southwest.
