After spending the night at Salt Lake City, we will head over to the American West Heritage Center. Here we will be able to examine the West back in the 1800s, with cowboys, trains, and pioneers. Join historical reenactors and a hands on learning experience when you visit here.

Bear Lake has such uniquely colored water, some refer to it as the Caribbean of the Rockies! It's deep blue green hue is created by high levels of calcium carbonate. After checking out the surrounding area, we will have the opportunity to stop and grab some of the raspberry flavored desserts the area is known for. (Since after this is a long drive you can choose here to eat an early lunch.)

Jackson Hole: Just south of Grand Teton National Park, this small town is known for its western theme and artwork. If you decided to not have lunch in Bear Lake, we will stop here for a later lunch. We will then check out the area, specifically the town square where there are arches made entirely out of antlers. We have a few recommendations for restaurants, however please make note that reservations and expenses for lunch and dinner relies on the traveler, not the tour company. 

Our restaurant recommendations: Snake River Grill, Local Restaurant and Bar, The White Buffalo Club, and Mangy Moose Steakhouse and Saloon. 

Grand Teton National Park: This national park gets its name from the Teton mountain range that runs through it, which happens to be one of the youngest mountain ranges in North America. Here we will have opportunities to explore different lakes and regions, however the main part of exploring this area and the activities that reside within will be done tomorrow.

The National Elk Refuge is a conservation to help protect and maintain elk populations. Here we will pass through the area so that we can examine the rolling hills of glacial outwash, as during the summer there will be minimal elk populations since they have migrated by this time.

Meals provided: Breakfast

Today we will finish touring Yellowstone National Park and any attractions that are left over from yesterday's trip.

 Note: Some attractions may need to be skipped due to unpredictable traffic conditions and force majeure.

After finishing Yellowstone National Park, we will return back to West Yellowstone  for the  Wild West Yellowstone Rodeo (IF the time you are visiting is between 6/18 and 8/21 and is not a Monday or Sunday). Here you get to watch cowgirls and cowboys in all sorts of events to test their skills against horses and bulls. There is also an opportunity for kids to join in if they compete in the Calf Scramble event! 

Note: If your itinerary date does not work with the schedule of the Wild West Yellowstone Rodeo, your tour will instead take you to Yellowstone Bear World in the morning the next day.

Idaho Falls is located between Salt Lake City and Yellowstone National Park, making it an ideal early lunch spot. Feel free to explore and stretch your legs, and if you would like, we can take you to the hydro-electric dam that the city is named after.

Salt Lake City is where we will travel to to spend the night. If we have extra time, we can take you to any Salt Lake attractions that we couldn't make on Day One. 

Bryce Canyon National Park is well known for its pink and white hoodoos, tall spires of rock as a result of geologic weathering, particularly for Bryce Canyon, frost wedging. Today we will explore this national park, and go on different hikes depending on the difficulty level and the ability the tour group has to complete them. For the more adventurous, your tour guide will take you down into Navajo Loop and for those who are looking for a more relaxed, but a good length hike, Queen's Garden Trail. If you are worried about any difficulty or any other activities that you would like to do here, don't hesitate to reach out!

Kanab: This small town is a perfect stopping point for travelers, as it is surrounded by many beautiful sights, such as The Wave and Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park. 

Antelope Canyon:  Being led by a Navajo guide, you will be able to explore Antelope Canyon, an attraction known for its beautiful photography locations and smooth red walls. NOTE: Due to time constraints, travelers must choose between the Antelope Canyon tour and the Page Airplane tour. 

Horseshoe Bend: Heavily praised by social media, this attraction is only a short hike away, where you will reach an overlook giving you a perfect place to take pictures. 

The Grand Canyon is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Arizona with an estimated 5.9 million people visiting yearly. This is the largest Canyon in America, spanning across 1,904 square miles!

After those attractions and parks, we will head off to the last part of today's journey, Flagstaff. This is located between Sedona and Grand Canyon National park (on Route 66), making a perfect place to get some rest. 

Zion National Park offers gorgeous wind-sculpted canyons and hikes along incredible trails. This park has something for everyone: for those who would rather stay in the car, you will love the intricate patterns found on Checkerboard Mesa and Weeping Rock. For amateur hikers, you’ll enjoy the stunning views from the Canyon Overlook Trail and the Riverside Walk. For experienced hikers, you’ll have the choice to hike to through the Narrows.
