Well hello there, Moab - home to rock art, dinosaur bones and plenty of national parks (which youโ€™ll get to know pretty well with Contiki.) Tonight weโ€™ll grab a bite to eat and then hit the hay - a big day awaits us tomorrow.

    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 6: Moab With Canyonlands And Arches National Park

      Our mission for the next few days is a simple (but very epic) one: tick the Big 5 national parks of Utah off our bucket list, starting with Canyonlands. Desert landscapes, with an almost perfect 8-shaped river running through it - Canyonlands is sure to stay with you for a while. Home to over 2,000 sandstone arches and sublime views, youโ€™ll be posing for selfies left, right and centre here at the Arches.

Weโ€™ll spend most of today here, so pack some snacks and wear your best boots to get the most out of the day.

      Today weโ€™ll journey from one canyon to the next. Weโ€™ll finish up today at the big one, the Grand Canyon, but we have a few saucy stop-offs along the way. A meander of the colorado river, which just so happens to be shaped like a horseshoe - Mother Nature, youโ€™ve outdone yourself with this one! This reservoir is visited by over 2 million people every year, and once you catch it IRL youโ€™ll understand exactly why. And now for the one youโ€™ve been dreaming about (even more than the rest). The star of your USA itinerary. Yup, itโ€™s the Grand Canyon. Itโ€™s about to get extra special too, because tonight weโ€™ll be marvelling at the sunset from the South Rim. Charge your phone, clear space on your camera, and prepare to weep.

  • Day 10 Day 10: Grand Canyon
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 10: Grand Canyon

      You will be contemplating life, existence, and the immense size of the Grand Canyon with a free day to spend in Grand Canyon National Park. You can spend your day feeling a part of the wilderness as you go hiking through the exposed rock, but by far the most spine tingling experience at this natural wonder is one of our optional chopper rides through the UNESCO World Heritage site. Indulgent sure, but one of those life moments you deserve to treat yourself to.

    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 11: Grand Canyon To Las Vegas

Weโ€™ve reached the one and only Sin City. Upon arrival weโ€™ll cruise the iconic strip & check out the Vegas sign. Feeling romantic? Stop by and see one of the many Elvis impersonators for a shotgun wedding ceremony, and maybe even get hitched yourself...(joking).Tonight, choose to hang out around Fremont Street or opt for a VIP nightclub experience for the kind of glitzy night out that only Vegas can provide.
