Your adventure will begin around 9 AM when your tour guide picks you up from either the Salt Lake City Airport or a hotel of your choosing. If you’d like to start your tour from an area other than Salt Lake City, please let us know, and we’ll make arrangements.

From Salt Lake City, we will drive southeast until we reach the USU Eastern Prehistoric Museum in Price, Utah. At the USU Eastern Prehistoric Museum, you can discover what life was like thousands to millions of years ago in Southern Utah. This museum contains over 700,000 archaeological artifacts, ranging from complete sets of dinosaur bones to pictographs left by the Fremont people over 2,000 years ago. No matter your interests, you are bound to find something you enjoy.

Next, we’ll travel along Highway 24 to reach Goblin Valley State Park. The “goblins” in Goblin Valley get their name from the thousands of unique hoodoos, or columns of weathered stone, that dot the surface of this exciting park. In this State Park, there are no official paths, allowing you to walk right up close to the hoodoos and take pictures. If time permits, your tour guide will take you on a hike to Goblin's Lair, an incredibly tall cave that must be seen to believe!

Afterward, we’ll continue along Highway 12 until we arrive at Capitol Reef National Park. Capitol Reef has a rich history and unique geology. Over 1,000 years ago, the Fremont people lived in this region, making pictographs on the cliffs that can still be seen to this day. We’ll also explore the remnants of Fruita, a small town established in the 1880s.

For the last leg of today’s journey, we’ll drive a short distance outside of Capitol Reef National Park to the small town of Torrey. Here, we’ll have dinner at one of the local restaurants, then drop you off at your hotel, allowing you to relax before the next day’s adventure.

In the morning, your tour guide will come to pick you up from your hotel, and you’ll depart for Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. While traveling, we’ll pass along Highway 12, an incredibly beautiful road that cuts through the mountains, offering gorgeous views of the surrounding area. After arriving, we’ll either go on a hike to see the local wildlife or visit Escalante Petrified Forest State Park, depending on your interests.

Our next destination will be Bryce Canyon National Park, which is reached by continuing along Highway 12. From its beautiful pink and white cliffs to its thousands of hoodoos, Bryce Canyon National Park is sure to leave a powerful impression on you. This park features many incredible viewpoints that are easily accessible and provide excellent locations to take photographs. For the more adventurous, your tour guide will take you down into the canyon along the Navajo-Queen’s Garden Trail, passing right next to incredible rock formations that have taken thousands of years to shape.

Before departing from the Bryce Canyon area, we’ll have a quick lunch and then continue onward towards Kanab. After arriving, we’ll drop you off at your hotel, allowing you to relax before the next day’s adventure.

In the morning, your tour guide will come to pick you up from your hotel and drive you to the Coyote Butte lottery for three amazing hikes: the Toadstools, White Pocket, a unique rock formation, and Wave Valley.

Wave Valley: The Wave Valley is the ultimate dreamland for photographers and travelers. To protect the landscape environment, only 20 people can visit each day. We will also take you to Coyote Butte or White Pocket, which are adjacent to the Wave Valley. Suitable all-terrain hiking shoes are very important for trekking in the valley. Although the hike is a little challenging, the amazing experience when you reach the site is unforgettable. This billion-year-old wavy valley is located on the banks of the Paria River, bordering Arizona in southern Utah. The rocky layers of the valley are composed of huge sand dunes that began to deposit during the Jurassic period.

If you didn't win the Wave or Coyote Butte lottery, don't worry; you are already fortunate to be in the center of numerous natural wonders, including Antelope Canyon, Horseshoe Bend, and Glen Canyon Dam at Lake Powell. We will explore Antelope Canyon with a knowledgeable Navajo guide, allowing you to discover this incredible region renowned for its picture-perfect landscapes. In fact, this region in Antelope Canyon is one of the top ten photography locations in the world! The tour lasts 2 hours, and admission is included.

Following the hike, you’ll be taken to Page, Arizona, for a quick meal at a local eatery. While in Southern Utah, there’s no better way to experience the American Southwest than from the air. You'll have the opportunity to embark on an amazing flightseeing adventure that offers fantastic bird’s-eye views of some of the country’s most striking scenery. Destinations such as Lake Powell, Rainbow Bridge, Horseshoe Bend, and Reflection Canyon will be visible from the sky! This one-hour trip in a Cessna airplane is included with the tour and is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

After your flight, we head to the quaint town of Kanab, located in the southwest corner of Utah, which boasts both beautiful landscapes and a rich history. Due to its spectacular red sandstone cliffs and unique plants, Kanab has served as the backdrop for many famous Hollywood shows and movies, including the Lone Ranger, Planet of the Apes, and Arabian Nights. While in Kanab, you will visit the alluring Pink Coral Sand Dunes, the impressive Moqui Sand Caves, and if time permits, the magnificent Toadstools and Horseshoe Bend.

In the morning, your tour guide will come to pick you up from your hotel and drive you to Zion National Park. This park will undoubtedly take your breath away as you drive through gorgeous wind-sculpted canyons and hike along incredible trails. The park offers something for everyone: if you prefer to remain in the car, you'll love the intricate patterns found on Checkerboard Mesa and Weeping Rock. For those who enjoy hiking, the stunning views from the Canyon Overlook Trail and the Riverside Walk will be a treat. And if you're an experienced hiker, you'll relish the thrill of trekking along the Narrows and Angel’s Landing.

After visiting Zion National Park, we'll depart for Springdale for lunch, then head to Mystic Hot Springs. These springs are the perfect place to relax and reflect after several days of adventures. The mineral-rich water from these springs will not only keep your skin healthy but also help you unwind and alleviate stress from your body.

If you're not interested in soaking in the natural hot spring, your tour guide can take you to Kanarraville Falls for a quick yet beautiful hike. We'll then drive back towards Salt Lake City. Settled in 1847 by a group of pioneers, Salt Lake City has blossomed into the vibrant capital of Utah and the gateway to the West. If time allows, your tour guide will show you the twin hearts of this city: Temple Square and the Capitol Building.

Depending on your departure time, we can drop you off at the airport or at a hotel of your choice.

Notice: Another option for day 4 would be to depart Zion National Park for Las Vegas. Contact us for more details.

3. Wave Valley is a small and remote area. Upon reaching Wave Valley, you will need to traverse a trail approximately 10.2 kilometers long. This area is recommended for experienced hikers. The landscape consists mostly of smooth rock and sand, demanding proficient navigation skills. Cell phone signal is limited due to the remote location. The landforms here have evolved over millions of years of erosion. The intricate rock layers are composed of vast sand dunes that began to accumulate during the Jurassic period 150 million years ago. At that time, these dunes resembled a massive desert. As time passed, the dunes became coated with red sand infused with groundwater. The minerals in the water gradually solidified the sand into sandstone, forming a layered structure. This ancient sand dune eventually gave rise to a type of sandstone known as “Navajo sandstone.” The erosion process has sculpted a stunning three-dimensional effect, with sandstone swirls showcasing an array of unique colors. These scarce and captivating landscapes draw people from around the world. These exquisite natural wonders are undoubtedly some of our Earth's greatest treasures, and their preservation should be a top priority.
4. Accommodation, as outlined in the itinerary, includes standard rooms with private bathrooms. Each room accommodates two beds and is limited to a maximum of 2 people (including children or infants, up to 4 people).
