6-Nights America's Greatest National Parks - Tailormade Journeys — CALL

1 Arrive Moab, Utah, USA

Marooned in Utah’s ochre vastness, Moab is the state’s adventure capital and a gateway to some of America’s most fantastic landscapes. Local museums chart the area’s ancient origins, with exhibits exploring paleontology and the rich indigenous culture, but the outdoors soon beckons: a land of hiking trails snaking to secluded waterfalls and canyons, of weathered sandstone pillars soaring like the spires of a cathedral, and of sunsets that plunge the desert into a blazing bath of pink, red and gold.

Join a private guide for hikes and drives through the extraordinary red landscapes of Arches National Park, where rock formations bear names as fanciful as the geology itself: Eye of the Whale, Fiery Furnace, the Three Gossips. Additionally, ride the rapids of the Colorado River on an exhilarating adventure through the copper-colored Fisher Towers, where the river churns, twists and glides through a landscape that has formed the backdrop to countless Western movies.

Horned, humped mesas, spindly buttes and open highways swallowed by a landscape bigger than any imagination can muster: Monument Valley is like nowhere else. Further south gapes the Grand Canyon, America’s natural showpiece, where millions of years of geological history are etched on its russet walls, looming over the silver bends of the Colorado River.

Embark on a hike led by an expert naturalist guide for incredible views of the Grand Canyon’s South Rim, the Colorado River and the Painted Desert. Uncover the natural and human secrets of Monument Valley with your own private, licensed Navajo guide; the Navajo people have lived here for centuries and have unique access to some of the area’s most awe-inspiring landmarks.

For an exclusive experience away from the crowds, charter your own private helicopter and watch the sheer depth, breadth and beauty of the Grand Canyon unfold beneath you.

Blushing beneath red sandstone cliffs and ponderosa pine forests, Sedona seduces with its beautiful desert landscapes, thermal springs and flawless night skies, a true adventure playground. Beyond the off-roading tracks and lush gorge hikes, history runs through this region’s russet bones: petroglyphs, carved as long ago as AD 600, have been discovered deep in the canyon walls, while the labyrinthine cliff dwellings and burial grounds of the Sinagua tribe were hewn from the rocks over seven centuries ago. Complement outdoor exploration with a private tour of the Museum of Northern Arizona in Flagstaff, where your guide brings the museum’s archives to life, including a fascinating collection of Southwest Native American art and artifacts.
