Schedule Details

Day 1: Salt Lake City - Antelope Island State Park (Great Salt Lake) - Hill Aerospace Museum

Your adventure will begin around 12:00 PM when your tour guide picks you up either from the Salt Lake City Airport or from 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 the necessary arrangements (fees apply).

 

If you arrive at Salt Lake City Airport before 12:00 PM, your tour guide will pick you up and take you to the Great Salt Lake  and the Salt Flats (approximately a 4-6hr tour), followed by a tour of Salt Lake City. During this tour, you will visit various sites in Salt Lake City, including but not limited to Temple Square, the Utah State Capitol, and the Beehive House.

 

Temple Square is often seen as the capital of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, also known as the Mormons. This historic region contains the world-famous Salt Lake City Temple, Tabernacle, and Beehive House, all important sights that must be seen!

 

Utah State Capitol: Modeled after the US Capitol Building in Washington DC, the Utah State Capitol Building is stunning. This brilliant piece of architecture is the center of government for all of Utah, containing the chambers for the Utah State Legislature, the chamber for the Utah Supreme Court, and the office for the Utah Governor. In addition to its important role as the seat of government for all of Utah, the Capitol Building also holds incredible pieces of artwork depicting the history of the state.

 

Antelope Island State Park: Located near Salt Lake City, Antelope Island is home to free-ranging bison, pronghorn (antelope), bighorn sheep, and many other desert animals. In addition to these larger animals, millions of birds line the shore offering unmatched bird watching opportunities. Here you also have amazing views of the Great Salt Lake and the opportunity to take a dip in the lake. (Depending on time, this attraction may be moved to the last day)

If you arrive at Salt Lake City Airport after 12:00 PM, you will be taken directly to the Salt Lake City Hotel to rest. If it is too late to visit the attractions, we will not refund the fee. 

After a day of touring and enjoying all the sights and architecture offered in Salt Lake City, you will have dinner and relax at your hotel located right in Salt Lake City.

Day 2: Salt Lake City - American West Heritage Center - Bear Lake State Park - Jackson Hole - Grand Teton National Park

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.

Believed to be their version of the Garden of Eden, this water source has nearly 1.5 million gallons flowing through it. While here, you can descend to the water's edge and witness a Native American cave dwelling.

We'll begin by exploring the local landscape and hiking some of the beautiful trails outside of Sedona.
