Grand Canyon National Park to Lake Powell, 145 miles
Head east through the Kaibab National Forest to Page and the fabulous Lake Powell, situated on the Colorado River. Take an excursion from Lake Powell Resort to Rainbow Bridge Monument to explore, before embarking on an Antelope Canyon tour to the most-visited and most-photographed slot canyon in the American Southwest. Wahweap campground is right on the lake and guests can enjoy the adjoining resort’s pool and facilities with the purchase of the Resort Amenity Pass.
Day 9
Lake Powell to Monument Valley, 124 miles
The red rock desert and monoliths of Monument Valley have been the setting for a multitude of western movies and are instantly recognisable. At Monument Valley, book the deluxe tour from Gouldings for the evening, covering the famous 17-mile loop of Monument Valley, some restricted back-country stops and famous monuments. This area of the Navajo Tribal Park boasts hidden treasures and provides great vantage points from the traditional 17-mile loop road.
Day 10
Monument Valley to Bluff, 47 miles
You will need to be up early this morning as you head for Bluff to enjoy the San Juan River & Hummer Cliff Dwelling Expedition (not included and must be booked prior). In the morning you will float down the river and stop to learn about the Butler Wash petroglyph panel before enjoying a fresh gourmet lunch under the cottonwoods. After lunch you will take a Hummer and cruise up a 4×4 only road to see a two-story cliff dwelling called River House Ruin. Here, you will get up close and personal with a cliff dwelling reminiscent of Mesa Verde National Park.
Day 11
Bluff to Mesa Verde National Park, 87 miles
Today you head towards Mesa Verde via the Four Corners monument, where the four states of Utah, Colorado, Arizona & New Mexico meet. Mesa Verde offers an insight into the lives of the Ancestral Pueblo people who made this their home for over 700 years. The park protects nearly 5,000 archaeological sites, including 600 cliff dwellings, the sites of which are some of the most notable and best preserved in the USA.
Day 12-13

Home for the next 2 days is Moab - an ideal base for visiting Canyonlands National Park. Take time to see Island in the Sky, a huge, flat-topped mesa with panoramic overlooks. Other notable areas include the towering rock pinnacles known as the Needles, the remote canyons of the Maze and the Native American rock paintings in Horseshoe Canyon. Take your time to explore Arches National Park which preserves over 2,000 natural sandstone arches, including the world-famous Delicate Arch (please be aware that Arches National Park requires a timed entry reservation which must be pre-booked). Moab is also an outdoor enthusiast’s dream with half-day jet boat tours, white water rafting trips through the rapids and 4x4 off road tours just a few of the options.
Day 14
Moab to Capitol Reef National Park, 147 miles
Today you move on to Capitol Reef National Park in Utah's south-central desert, where the defining geologic feature is a wrinkle in the earth known as the Waterpocket Fold.

En route to Mesquite, visit the St. George area, a historical gold mine full of pioneer homes, fascinating ghost towns, and prehistoric dinosaur footprints.
Day 17
Mesquite to Las Vegas, 94 miles
Upon arrival back into Las Vegas, return your motorhome before spending one final night prior to your return flight.
