Start your tour around 5:20 AM and begin the journey with a complimentary pick-up at your hotel (strip hotels and surroundings) and guided narration of the area. Learn about the history of Las Vegas as you head northeast towards the Utah border. Stop in either Mesquite Nevada or Hurricane UT, depending on the time of year, for a break on your way to Zion National Park.

Discovered by Mormon settlers in the 19th century, at the junction of the Colorado Plateau, Great Basin and Mojave Desert provinces in Southwestern Utah, Zion National Park covers 229 square miles of dramatic landscape with sculptured canyons and soaring cliffs. Follow the paths of ancient native people and pioneers. Gaze up at massive sandstone cliffs and brilliant blue sky. Experience wilderness in a narrow slot canyon.

After 1.5-hours exploring Zion, sit down for a lunch, then head to Bryce Canyon for the second part of your tour. See the canyon's stunning hoodoo formations, red cliffs, pink soil, and ponderosa pines, and wonder why the area was not incorporated into the nearby national park. After approximately 1.5-hours hiking or sightseeing through the scenic, red-tinged moonscape, head back to the vehicle for your comfortable return trip back to your hotel in Las Vegas, stopping for dinner and breaks along the way.
