Day 3: Grand Canyon

Superlatives can't adequately describe the grandeur and majesty of what our eyes behold today- The Grand Canyon. This morning a local guide joins us for an 8-mile tour along the west rim to Hermit's Rest, with views of the mule trail and thundering rapids of the Colorado River. This afternoon we tour another 52 miles to the east which includes the Yavapi Museum, Lipan Point, said to be the most spectacular viewpoints of the East Rim Drive. We also view the Painted Desert with many opportunities for photos of the canyon's panoramic views. Overnight in the Grand Canyon National Park with time for a stroll in the area after dinner.

Day 4: Lake Powell Cruise

This morning we travel north through the Navajo Indian Reservation enroute to Page, Arizona, for a relaxing cruise on Lake Powell. The lake was formed by the building of the Glen Canyon Dam, making it one of America's most scenic lakes surrounded by its towering sandstone canyon walls. Later this afternoon we continue to our lodging for two nights at the lodge in Zion National Park.

Day 5: Bryce and Zion Canyons

Our day begins with a drive to one of the most colorful canyons - Bryce Canyon - with its walls and rock formations carved in iron oxide giving red, yellow, and brown tints to the limestone. Enjoy lunch in the park allowing plenty of time to soak in the beauty of our surroundings. We then return to Zion National Park for a guided tour of the canyons and stone towers of Zion National Park. The Watchman is one such tower that looms 2,555 feet from the canyon floor. Dinner tonight is at the lodge.

Day 6: Lake Meade

We travel south this morning to Lake Meade where we board the paddlewheeler, Desert Princess, for a narrated cruise describing the area history and construction of Hoover Dam.
