This tour starts in May, and can be booked through to October.

Here's what you'll get to see:

Our routes have been carefully chosen to include the best night stops and highlights. However, as local conditions and passenger requests vary, no two trips will ever be the same. With the guidance of your Trek Leader you may modify certain nightstops and highlights to give a truly unique experience!


Day: 1 Las Vegas & Cowboy Camp
Leaving Las Vegas we'll pass through colourful Colorado City and the Grand Staircase / Escalante National Monument en-route to Lake Powell for a 'must do' swim and fantastic photo op. Then tuck into an authentic Western BBQ and tales around the campfire at the rugged Paria Canyon Ranch.

Day: 2 Cowboy Camp & Monument Valley
Saddle up for an optional horseback ride before heading out to Monument Valley. Along the way we'll stop off for a short hike to Horseshoe Bend and a quick visit to the Indian market, before jumping on our guided Jeep tour deep into the valley for an overnight experience with the Navajo in one of their traditional mud-hut Hogans.
Accommodation: Camping included | Meals: Breakfast, lunch & dinner included


Day: 3 Monument Valley & Grand Canyon
Passing through the Painted Desert we'll make our way to the Cameron Trading Post sat on top of the Little Colorado River Gorge.

Day: 4 Grand Canyon & Las Vegas
Catch a bird's eye view on an optional scenic helicopter flight before making our way back to Las Vegas via the famous Route 66 and Hoover Dam. Tour The Strip and outlet malls for some last memories and mementos of your south-western adventure.
