Get ready to check off half a dozen National Parks from your “must-visit” list, for this 7-day Southwest National Parks Tour deftly combines the best natural landscapes in the USA with the luxurious treat of having your own private driver.
Begin by soaking up the views at Zion and Bryce Canyon National Parks, continuing onward to Arches and Canyonlands National Parks via the scenic route through Capitol Reef National Park. Refresh with a few days in the Page region of Arizona and cruise along picturesque Lake Powell, before concluding with one of the seven natural wonders of the world, the lesser-visited North Rim of the Grand Canyon.
We are committed to helping you change your plans if you need to and we pledge the utmost flexibility to adjust your trip dates if required.
Private Socially Distanced Tours
Privately guided tours are more essential than ever, allowing you to freely explore remote destinations with your family. With SA you will ride in your own spacious, sanitised vehicles and visit attractions at strategic times, steering clear of any crowds.
Check off multiple National Parks on this trip, including Arches National Park, Capitol Reef National Park, Canyonlands National Park, Zion National Park, and the Grand Canyon.
Activate “adventure mode” at Zion National Park, with the option to hike through water at The Narrows or walk the precarious ridge line at Angel’s Landing.
Set sail on the mirror-like waters of Lake Powell, a reservoir of the Colorado River.
Use the following itinerary for inspiration. Remember: all days, hotels and activities can be altered to suit your requirements. A SA Expeditions travel specialist will be happy to advise.
On arrival, you’ll be met by your private guide and set off on your adventure through some of the Southwest’s most incredible National Parks. First stop, Zion! Depending on your time of arrival, your guide can recommend the best route to kickstart your adventure. Perhaps you’re up for a hike down the Virgin River in a place called The Narrows (literally, hike in water!), or challenge yourself to hike a narrow ridge line to Angels Landing. Not up for a hike, enjoy a more relaxing afternoon such as a lunch in Orderville or Springdale before touring the visitor center with an introduction to the park.

I went to Ecuador on the Galapagos trip. It was my first trip with SA Expeditions so I had no idea why to expect. They definitely impressed. Every detail was organized and planned for me. The hotels exceeded my expectations. The tours were exactly what they described. My guides were fun, knowledgeable and flexible to adjust to what I felt like doing. I travelled alone as a single woman and felt completely safe the entire time. I knew they were just a phone call away. I'll be booking the trip to the salt flats for December!
We had a great trip to Peru booked through SA Expeditions! Everything ran smoothly from start to finish. We had great accommodations and we especially liked our guide Silver! I was nervous at first about booking with a company I found on the web and had no experience with but Dan, who made all arrangements, was very patient with me and but me at ease. I would highly recommend SA Expeditions!
My daughter and I went with SA Expeditions to coordinate our trip to Peru to Machu Picchu, Rainbow Mountain and Lake Titicaca. The accommodations that SA scheduled were fantastic. Beautiful settings, delicious food and friendly staff.
Our guides were extremely knowledgeable and accommodating. We had to make some last minute changes to our hike. Our guide Marco rolled with the changes and made it a memorable experience.
We enjoyed the knowledge that the guides had regarding Incan and pre-Incan societies. We left the vacation more knowledgeable that when we started.
Can't recommend enough.
This itinerary would cost from $7,990 pp.
Pricing may vary by accommodation choice, group size and time of year.
