Title
Enchanting Canyonlands

Vacation Overview
Discover the captivating canyonlands on this unforgettable vacation! First, experience the Grand Canyon with its spellbinding landscapes that will excite your senses. Your Grand Canyon hotel is located on the rim, giving you a wonderful opportunity to witness great views and have more time to explore this amazing place. In nearby Lake Powell, enjoy a leisurely cruise among the beautiful canyon walls and leisure time to relax or pursue your favorite activities. Then continue into Navajo country for a Navajo cookout and time to dip in the pool while you admire the majestic beauty around you. Have your camera ready for some spectacular shots during your 4-wheel-drive Navajo-guided tour of mystical Monument Valley.Enjoy a relaxing 2-night stay at Red Cliffs Lodge in Moab, located beside the Colorado River at the foot of the dramatic red-rock cliffs. From Moab, visit Arches National Park with its 2,000 natural sandstone arches, Canyonlands National Park, and Dead Horse Point State Park. A day of contrasts leads you to Bryce Canyon National Park, where the slow erosion of ages has created fantastically sculptured rock formations resembling castles. Finally, head to Zion National Park and enjoy the beauty and peace offered at this park with its massive canyon walls ascending toward the blue sky.Photos—and even movies—cannot adequately depict the stunning beauty and breathtaking geological formations offered in these destinations; you must experience them yourself. So grab your camera, sit back, and let Globus handle all of the details and driving.
