Tour Overview

Experience Utah’s red-rock landscape and epic national parks with a four-day glamping adventure that will see you ending every day of exploration under the stars in a western-style wagon. With a super cool Feature Stay as your base, explore Zion National Park on leader-led hikes, witness the iconic hoodoos and spires of Bryce Canyon National Park and enjoy picnic lunches in the heart of natural wonders. Learn about Navajo history in the surreal Lower Antelope Canyon with a local Navajo guide, walk through Snow Canyon State Park and end it all in glitzy Vegas.

Highlights

  • Spend a few days exploring Utah’s best national parks with a glamping base near Zion National Park, where you can end each night by your campfire under the stars.

  • Explore Lower Antelope Canyon’s almost supernatural appearance and learn about local history and culture from your Navajo guide.

  • Go hiking on leader-led trails through Zion National Park and Snow Canyon State Park, enjoying views of the massive canyon walls and red sandstone cliffs.

  • Take a walk through Bryce National Park and marvel at the unique sandstone spires known as hoodoos, that rise dramatically from the natural amphitheater.

  • Visit Best Friends Animal Sanctuary to meet their rescued horses, dogs, cats, bunnies, birds and pigs and learn about the incredible work they do here for animal welfare.

  • By travelling on this trip, you’ll directly support our Intrepid Foundation partner, the Grand Canyon Conservancy. Donations help them protect Grand Canyon National Park and support trail restoration, conservation of native plants and wildlife, and educational programs.

  • Go hiking on leader-led trails through Zion National Park, enjoying views of the massive canyon walls and red sandstone cliffs.

  • Visit the quieter Snow Canyon State Park, whose towering cliffs have served as the setting for plenty of Western movies.

Day 1: Las Vegas To Zion National Park

Location: Las Vegas to Zion National Park

Accommodation: Zion White Bison Resort - Glamping Tent (with private facilities)

Meals Included: lunch

Welcome to Nevada! Your nature-filled glamping adventure begins in Las Vegas – the capital of glitz and glam in the heart of the desert. It’s heavily recommended that you stay an extra day or two before your trip to explore all that Sin City has to offer. Start today with a welcome meeting at 8 am sharp, followed by a drive to Zion National Park. When you arrive, head out to explore Zion Canyon with your leader, taking in the views of the surrounding red cliffs and the famous Angel's Landing. Your leader will then choose a hike based on the group’s ability and interests – maybe the Watchman Trail or the Emerald Pools. Along the way, enjoy a picnic lunch and head to your glamping resort for a unique Feature Stay experience. You’ll spend the next few nights in your western-style wagons that feature private bathrooms, comfortable beds and a fire pit. Tonight, maybe rejoin your group for an optional welcome dinner.

Included Activities:
-Zion National Park - Leader - Led hike

Day 2: Bryce Canyon National Park / Zion

Location: Bryce Canyon National Park / Zion

Accommodation: Zion White Bison Resort - Glamping Tent (with private facilities)

Meals Included: breaksfast, lunch, dinner

After breakfast, head to Bryce Canyon National Park for the day. After a scenic drive through Utah’s red rock country (with multiple stops at overlooks for good views and good photos), you’ll reach an elevation of 8000 ft (just over 2400 m) marking your entrance into the park. From here, you’ll spend the morning hiking on trails chosen by your leader, maybe with a stroll along the canyon rim to marvel at the unique sandstone spires (known as hoodoos) that rise dramatically from the natural amphitheatre. Stop for a picnic lunch with your group among the hoodoos and spires and take in the incredible alien-like landscape. Later, enjoy an included dinner back near Zion.

Included Activities:
-Bryce Canyon - Leader-led Walk

Day 3: Antelope Canyon / Zion

Location: Antelope Canyon / Zion

Accommodation: Zion White Bison Resort - Glamping Tent (with private facilities)

Meals Included: breaksfast, lunch

This morning after breakfast, head to Page where you’ll join a local Navajo guide for an adventure through Lower Antelope Canyon – famous for its wave-like structure and the distinct light beams that shine down into the canyon’s openings, creating a supernatural, magical appearance. There are fewer crowds here than in the upper part of the canyon (because you’ll have to go up and down a ladder – but don’t worry, this isn’t too strenuous), making the experience that much more special. After, take a short hike out to Horseshoe Bend and enjoy a picnic lunch with an unforgettable view over the Colorado River. Return to Zion and fill up a free afternoon with more exploring!

Included Activities:
-Horseshoe Bend Visit
-Page - Antelope Canyon Tour

Day 4: Snow Canyon State Park / Las Vegas

Location: Snow Canyon State Park / Las Vegas

Meals Included: breaksfast, lunch

After breakfast, you’ll check out of your glamping tents – but don’t fret, the adventure isn't over yet. Before heading back to Vegas, you’ll do some easy hiking at Snow Canyon State Park – a scenic park often underrated by tourists but no less spectacular than Zion. Plenty of Western movies have been filmed here – think Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, High School Musical 2 and The Flintstones. Sit down among the towering cliffs and red rocks for a final picnic lunch with your group, then drive back to Vegas, where your trip comes to an end. If you need extra accommodation, just speak to your booking agent.

Transport

  • AIRPORT TRANSFERS IN THE USA & CANADA
  • We recommend taxis and rideshare services like Lyft and Uber when traveling to and from hotels in the USA and Canada. These services are widely available across North America, offering convenient and accessible transportation options. Private transfers in North America incur high costs and present an increased risk of missed connections due to their fixed schedules. In contrast, taxis and rideshares offer both cost-effectiveness and flexibility, ensuring a smoother journey. With transparent pricing, GPS tracking, and on-demand availability, we believe that taxis and rideshare apps not only offer a reliable alternative to private transfers but also provide a secure, trustworthy, and budget-friendly transportation option for our customers.
  • NORTH AMERICA VEHICLES
  • Our large fleet of 15-passenger vans are fully equipped with air-conditioning system, V8 engines and any camping or cooking equipment needed for your trip. Most have cloth-upholstered seats and carpeted interior with radio or CD players. Your luggage is typically transported in a trailer which is towed behind the van.
  • The vans are regularly serviced by a well-established network of maintenance and service facilities throughout the continent. However, unforeseen maintenance problems can still occur while on the road and we appreciate the patience of our travellers as we make necessary repairs as quickly as possible.
  • While your group will have a van for all included activities on the trip, the services of the van and leader may not be available for your use during free time, or after you have arrived for the day. If you need a special trip into town you may need to arrange transport or a taxi.

Accommodation

  • The style of accommodation indicated in the day-to-day itinerary is a guideline only and may change. On some occasions, alternative arrangements may need to be made due to the lack of availability of rooms in our preferred accommodation. In these cases, we will use a similar standard of accommodation.
  • Throughout the trip, we request that our properties prepare rooms in time for our arrival, especially if we're arriving prior to normal check-in time. However, this isn't always possible which means we won't be able to check-in immediately on arrival at some hotels. Instead, we can store our luggage and explore our new destination or on some trips, have use of shared day rooms until all rooms are available.

Important Information

  • 1. Your adventure begins with a welcome meeting at 8 am on Day 1 in Las Vegas. Please make your own way to the Joining Point Hotel listed in the Essential Trip Information for this itinerary.
  • 2. There is no accommodation included in Las Vegas on this trip. If you wish to spend more time in Las Vegas, we'll be happy to book additional accommodation for you (subject to availability). Speak to an Intrepid booking agent for more information.
  • 3. On the final day, this trip finishes at approximately 6 pm on arrival in Las Vegas. You will be dropped at the same location as the joining point. If departing this day, please do not book any flights before 8 pm.
  • 4. A single supplement is available if you’d prefer not to share a room on this trip. The single supplement applies to all nights on your trip and is subject to availability. Please speak to your booking agent for further information.

Check out our Q&As

  • Is this trip right for you

    The trip involves a lot of walking through national parks, so be prepared with hiking shoes, a water bottle and a day pack.

    We will be travelling to the desert, which means it is often very warm during the day but cold at night, so pack the appropriate clothing for all weather.

    This trip includes time spent travelling in a private vehicle with your group. Extra space can be tight, and conditions may feel a little cramped. It’s all part of the adventure and a great way to get to know your fellow travellers. Please read the itinerary carefully for travel time estimates.

Just leaving a review to share how much I enjoyed my Central America trip. I thought the guide, Aura was so knowledgeable and organised and clearly a great ambassador for Intrepid. She gave us lots of information on each region, helped us organise anything we needed and dealt with queries from passengers very well and diplomatically. She made the trip run smoothly. She was also keen to explain the Intrepid vision and how the company values making a difference to locals and is a credit to your company. I did Guatemala and beyond and thoroughly enjoyed it - very fast paced, lots to see and do and a great overview of the region. I would definitely recommend 👍

I just completed my first Intrepid tour which was 33 days travelling around Central America - I had the time of my life! It was great to have the benefit of a guide (Fluffy was amazing!) and be able to ask questions at any point, but I also liked the freedom that you were permitted throughout. The group tour made boarder crossings seamless and the whole process felt easy - there was never one hiccup. As a solo female traveller, I felt safe throughout, and I cannot recommend Central America enough - the people, the food, the sun and the activities were just amazing :) Can't wait to book my next adventure soon!

I have just come back home after doing Intrepid's 10-day Vietnam Express Northbound tour. What a SUPERB tour. We saw lots and did lots, it was jam-packed full of sights and activities. Our tour leader, Tam, was the best ever. Very knowledgeable, organised and lots of fun too. The other 10 people on the group were all lovely. The places we visited were very interesting. We even visited local homes and ate just like the local people do. I highly recommend Intrepid to anyone considering touring a new country. This was my 5th tour with them and they have consistently been fantastic.

I have travelled with Intrepid a number of times now and can't recommend them enough. The trips are always exciting, full of history and immersive in the culture and environment. The office staff are great too and always happy to help with any questions you might have. Everywhere I have gone with the company has been different but the guides and itinerary have always been excellent and full of knowledge and passion for their country. Add in the social responsibility angle the company has and it top quality ethical practice and you can't go wrong

15-Mar-2024

I recently went on an 11 day tour of India with Intrepid and was impressed with every aspect of the tour, the tour leader and the organisation behind the scenes. I always travel alone so it was a big deal to join a tour, I didn't want to feel less independent or ferried about. I loved being part of a group and the things we saw and did on the tour, I would never have known about or seen if I had been by myself. I loved it from start to finish. Yes the overnight trains were not easy to sleep on, but I managed. Meeting locals on board was a high light for me. English is widely spoken in India and its amazing who you strike up a chat with. I had two problems on the tour - one my own fault and one hotel related. The support from Intrepid was amazing. I cannot thank them enough for going the extra mile to support me. I recommend Intrepid 100% and have gone from thinking an organised tour is for people who don't know about Lonely Planet and can't do solo stuff, to realising its a faster, better, more fun way to get to know a country truly and deeply whilst on a bit of a budget. I will book again and again with Intrepid. I loved it that much! Big thanks to tour leader Daddy H. Devender for his help on day one, and Nick in the Oz office for his fab customer care skills. Also the person who staffed the emergency whatsapp in India - you saved my sanity helping me get there a day late! THANK YOU ALL X

This was my first international solo trip, but I never felt “alone” - there was always someone to go shopping, hike, or grab a quick bite with. The itinerary was a great balance between organized activities, while still allowing free time for exploring. Each location was unique and charming in its own way. Spending the night in the holy city of Moulay Idriss and wandering the winding streets of Chefchaouen were especially memorable. Thank you Mustapha and Intrepid for an incredible adventure!

I have just completed a 12 day food tour of Vietnam, and had an amazing time. Our tour leader was great, knowledgeable and kind, who helped throughout the trip with recommendations for places on our free days, and spas. All the food we tried was delicious. It is a very fast paced tour, and Bon tried to maximise our experiences for the best.

13-Aug-2024

We had a fantastic time on the Botswana Highlights tour recently. We chose Intrepid because it seemed to suit what we wanted - well planned itinerary, small group, comfortable without being overly luxurious (and pricey), and supportive of the local community and environment. We weren't disappointed, and as we met with other like-minded travellers then we all had a great time. We are already planning our next Intrepid tour - maybe Vietnam & Cambodia :-)
