Southwest National Parks

Trip overview

Traverse the timeless landscapes of the Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon, and Zion, where the intricate dance of uplift and erosion has etched an extraordinary tapestry across the Southwest plateau. Delve into a world where hoodoos, slot canyons, arches, buttes, and mesas stretch across the horizon in a breathtaking display of nature's artistry.

Each day offers active exploration and time for serene contemplation amidst the vastness of the parks. While in Grand Canyon National Park opt for independent touring or join an optional once-in-a-lifetime flightseeing excursion to tour the park by helicopter. Zion National Park is a masterpiece of nature. Take advantage of a full day to discover its marvelous sandstone cliffs and diverse array of ecosystems. Admire the radiant colors displayed on the walls of Antelope Canyon. Experience the tranquility of rafting down the Colorado River. Stand in awe before the magnificent hoodoos at Bryce Canyon. Capture these indelible moments to cherish for a lifetime. An Orbridge Expedition Leader and local guides seamlessly enrich the learning experience throughout the tour, each providing geological, historical, and cultural interpretations at every location.
