The experience

The tour departs from your Las Vegas hotel: Treasure Island is the default pickup, though you can arrange another location by contacting support after booking. The drive north passes through the Virgin River Gorge twice, with dramatic canyon walls rising on either side of the river, then through St. George before reaching Zion National Park. You'll stop at the visitor center to photograph the towering red cliffs, then travel the scenic road along Zion Canyon's south walls and pass through the famous Zion-Mount Carmel Tunnel on the way to the park's East Entrance. A scenic viewpoint on Zion's upper mountains offers a photo stop at a geologic formation unique to this area.

From Zion, a 90-minute drive takes you to Bryce Canyon National Park, where you walk among the hoodoos and spires at multiple scenic overlooks. The landscape shifts dramatically, instead of towering canyon walls, Bryce's upper plateau opens onto a wonderland of thin, colorful rock formations stacked like a natural amphitheater. The guide points out the best vantage points and explains what you're seeing as the day unfolds.

Lunch is a deli sandwich box with a granola bar, served somewhere along the route. You'll have one complimentary bottle of water. Bring more if you plan to hike or spend time at the overlooks. WiFi is available on the Mercedes Sprinter, and the dual-axle vehicle with premium leather seats handles the long drive and elevation changes. The tour wraps by late afternoon, returning you to your hotel. Don't book shows, dining or flights for the evening: weather or road delays can eat into the schedule, and the operator isn't responsible for missed reservations.
