Day 4    GRAND CANYON NATIONAL PARK                          (B)

Today is a free day to explore everything the Grand Canyon has to offer. If you missed the sunset, the sunrise is equally breathtaking! Grand Canyon National Park stretches 278 miles along the Colorado River and is located on the ancestral homeland of 11 Associated Tribes. Marvel at one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World as you take in the dramatic views of landscapes shaped by water and wind. Consider joining a Ranger talk in the Amphitheater to learn about how the canyon was formed, venture down part of the Bright Angel Trail, or visit the geology museum.

Day 5    MONUMENT VALLEY NAVAJO TRIBAL PARK * LAKE POWELL         (B,D)

• Hotel: Lake Powell Resort – 2nts

Head to Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park, where the weathering action of wind and water has carved the famous sandstone spires and towers that rise hundreds of feet above the valley floor.  Join a Navajo Guide on a 4-wheel backcountry tour to explore the area’s oddly shaped red-sandstone monoliths, buttes, and mesas—the setting for some of John Ford’s most memorable and classic western films. Experience the Navajo culture while enjoying traditional fry bread and hearing fascinating stories of regional legends and folklore. Travel to Lake Powell for a 2-night stay, with free time to relax or maybe stroll along Wahweap Marina.

DAY 6    LAKE POWELL * ANTELOPE SLOT CANYON                          (B)

This morning, explore the exquisite Antelope Slot Canyon in the company of a Local Navajo Guide. Learn the history of this amazing canyon and marvel at the changing shades and captivating shapes of the narrow sandstone caverns as beams of sunlight pierce the towering walls carved by wind and water for millennia. The rest of the day is free in Lake Powell, where sparkling blue water laps against towering red-rock canyon walls and sandy beaches.

DAY 7    BRYCE CANYON NATIONAL PARK, UTAH                              (B,D)

• Hotel: Best Western Plus Bryce Canyon Grand – 1nt

Depart from the splendid views of Lake Powell and travel Utah’s scenic backroads to spectacular Bryce Canyon National Park. Spend time in the park capturing the magnificent contrasts of bright red, yellow, and pink pillars called “hoodoos.” Years of erosion have carved colorful sandstone into rock formations that resemble castle towers, cathedral spires and squatting goblins. The Bryce area is one of the best places for stargazing thanks to its remote location.

DAY 8    ZION NATIONAL PARK * LAS VEGAS – 1nt                           (B,BL,D)

• Hotel: Treasure Island Las Vegas – 1nt

Today, see nearby Zion National Park, a spectacle of massive stone formations whose colors change with the light of the day and the season. Zion’s sandstone walls rise thousands of feet above the valleys and cliffs high above the canyon floor’s lush greenery and snaking Virgin River. Here, Native Americans and new pioneers first gazed skyward at soaring cliffs of cream, pink, and red piercing the brilliant blue sky. Enjoy a boxed picnic lunch on the front lawn of Zion Lodge with free time to explore before continuing to Las Vegas for a brief city tour. This evening, your Tour Director will host a farewell dinner.

DAY 9    DEPART LAS VEGAS AND FLY HOME                       (B)
