Day 3 - Las Vegas - Sedona Leaving behind the bright lights of Vegas, travel along parts of historic Route 66 into the desert landscapes of central Arizona. Visit the ruins at Montezuma Castle National Monument before winding through some of the West's most famous Red Rock Country scenery to the quaint town of Sedona, an eclectic mix of Western, Native and New Age cultures. Enjoy free time to shop or visit the town's many art galleries before tonight's welcome drink and dinner at our hotel. (Full Breakfast / Dinner)

Journey east into the vast Navajo Indian Reservation and stop at a historic Indian trading post with a chance to purchase native handicrafts. Then it's on to Glen Canyon Dam, spanning the Colorado River and backing up its waters to form the magnificent Lake Powell. With over 3,000 miles of towering sandstone shoreline, the lake's deep blue waters fill thousands of tiny fingers and hidden coves. (Full Breakfast / Dinner)
Day 6 - Lake Powell - Bryce Canyon National Park - Zion National Park (2 nights) The incredible beauty of Utah comes to life today.

Walk along the rim of the amphitheatre and marvel at the magnificent formations carved by Mother Nature into a fantastic landscape of fairytale castles, cathedrals, and a maze of trails and hideaways. Then, drive through some of the West's most breathtaking scenery, traveling through the Checkerboard Mesa and down towards impressive Zion Canyon. Witness the amazing results of millions of years of erosion, including the Great Arch of Zion. Arrive at your hotel for a two-night stay. (Full Breakfast)
