Southwest National Parks Tour
7 DAYS Starting from $8,290 per person
Get ready to check off half a dozen National Parks from your “must-visit” list, for this 7-day Southwest National Parks Tour deftly combines the best natural landscapes in the USA with the luxurious treat of having your own private driver. Begin by soaking up the views at Zion and Bryce Canyon National Parks, continuing onward to Arches and Canyonlands National Parks via the scenic route through Capitol Reef National Park. Refresh with a few days in the Page region of Arizona and cruise along picturesque Lake Powell, before concluding with one of the seven natural wonders of the world, the lesser-visited North Rim of the Grand Canyon.
Trip at a Glance
HIGHLIGHTS
- Hike through the “hoodoos” of Bryce Canyon National Park, unique sandstone spires created by millennia of wind and weather beating down upon the landscape.
- Watch the sun disappear behind the rocky whorls of the aptly named Delicate Arch at Arches National Park.
- Let your private driver-guide take the reins, allowing yourself to be chauffeured to and from breathtaking locations on all private luxury tours.
- From a strategic lookout point, trace the journey of the Colorado River as it wends its way through the iconic Horseshoe Bend area of Glen Canyon National Recreation Area.
- Cruise through the Lake Powell reservoir, navigating along gorgeous cliff-side channels of Glen Canyon.
- Stop at the lesser-visited North Rim of the Grand Canyon to marvel at this most impressive of natural wonders, with the option to upgrade to include a private helicopter tour of the park.
- Get your feet wet (literally) and hike through shallow waters of the Virgin River, in Zion National Park’s “the Narrows” (optional).
- Stargaze in Bryce Canyon National Park, designated a “Dark Sky Park,” with the luminous Milky Way galaxy overhead.
