American Dream - Road Trip (California, Nevada, Utah and Arizona) 🚗

We'll have an early start from Las Vegas and drive toward Zion National Park where we'll be based for three days (Springdale). We will have time to explore the surroundings before sundown and grab some dinner in Springdale.

Zion National Park: we’ll be able to hit all the highlights as well as get off the beaten track. DAY 1 On our first day we'll explore Zion Canyon, making time for the Riverside Walk, lunch by Zion Lodge and Emerald Pools Trail.

Bryce Canyon: Let your imagination run wild as you visit the planet’s epicentre of hoodoos - unusual ‘fairy chimneys’ shaped erosions.

Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument: One of the largest parks of the Southwest, with some of the most spectacular, yet least visited scenaries.

Arches National Park: Small in size but packed with over 2000 natural arches, this is a great park to explore, with plenty of opportunities to wander beyond the main sights for once in-a-lifetime views of an enthralling geographical process. DAY 1 We'll get up early as entry before 7:00 is free. ...

Drive through Monument valley - Forrest Gump hill - Mexican Hat Drive to Horseshoe bend overnight camp to see sunrise. Alternatively stay in Page, AZ and soak in some American lifestyle and drive to nearby sights

By this point we will have hiked a bit so we will take a chill day to get ready for second half of the trip. We'll visit the nearby Coral Pink Sand Dunes for SUNSET/SUNRISE. We will have time to visit some more attractions.

We'll be located in Tusayan, just a 6 miles/ 10 minutes drive from the South Rim. This will allow us to explore part of the Canyon for a day trip. To beat the crowds we'll have an early start to see the sunset at Mather Point. We'll then explore the main visitor's centre and ride the shuttle along the rim - Hermit Road. We will also take a few short hikes: part of the rim trail and bright angel trail. We will also be able to stargaze at night.

From Grand Canyon we will head toward Las Vegas, however we'll detour towards the Mojave Desert for some spectacular dune scenes. We'll visit around sundown to fully capture the amazing scene. We'll then head off towards Las Vegas.

We will end our trip where we started, Las Vegas. We will arrive in the evening most likely because we will visit Mojave Desert around sunset for a stunning view of the golden dunes. I'd reccomend staying the night in Las Vegas and leaving the following day.
