About the trip

This escorted tour from Riviera Travel threads through some of the American West’s most distinctive national parks and landscapes, starting amidst the neon glow of Las Vegas. Early days take you to the vastness of the Grand Canyon’s West Rim, including the Skywalk that stretches over this layered marvel, and the industrial spectacle of Hoover Dam. Beyond the desert, the Valley of Fire State Park and Bryce Canyon reveal red rock formations and hoodoos that rise like sculptures crafted by time itself.

Further north, the route crosses Navajo Nation to see formations like Horseshoe Bend and the narrow channels of Antelope Canyon, then on to Monument Valley with its sandstone buttes and Mesa Verde’s cliff dwellings carved by ancestral Puebloan people. Then it is on to the distinctive arches of Utah’s Arches National Park, and the rugged canyons of Canyonlands.

The latter stages feature visits to the volcanic landscape and wildlife of Yellowstone, the mountainous Tetons, and finally the Great Salt Lake and Antelope Island with its bison herd. The tour closes as it began, with Salt Lake City’s blend of city and natural surrounds.
