8-Day Las Vegas to Antelope Canyon, Bryce & Yellowstone Small-Group Adventure
From Las Vegas neon to Yellowstone steam, this eight-day small-group tour stitches together the West’s most cinematic landscapes — Antelope Canyon, Bryce’s hoodoos, and Yellowstone’s geothermal theatre. Expect long drives, expert bilingual guides, and a rhythm of short hikes and viewpoint stops.
The Experience
Before You Go
Hydrate at altitude
Drink frequently—high elevations at Bryce and Yellowstone accelerate dehydration even on cool days.
Layer for temperature swings
Daytime desert heat and chilly high‑elevation mornings mean a breathable base, insulating mid layer, and windproof shell.
Protect camera gear in slot canyons
Sand and sun can damage lenses; use a UV filter, lens cloth, and a secure camera strap during Antelope Canyon visits.
Plan flexible flights
Book return flights after mid‑afternoon on the final day to allow for road delays or optional stops like Bonneville Salt Flats.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems
- •Early-morning viewpoint at Grand Canyon West cabins for quiet canyon light

Conservation Note
Visitors should stay on marked trails and boardwalks to protect fragile thermal features and prevent erosion; choose refillable water bottles to reduce plastic waste.
The tour traces Indigenous and settler histories—the Hualapai and Navajo people manage parts of the West Rim and Antelope Canyon, while Mormon settlement shaped Salt Lake City’s Temple Square.
