This was definitely a trip to remember forever. From the very beginning our tour
guide Evan appeared to be a fun, knowledgeable guide and I knew this trip was
going to be fun and exciting.
Day 1:
Driving about 3+ hours
Hiking about 4+
..hours
Evan picked up our group in Stratosphere on Sunday July 1. We decided to fly in
from NY and stay in the Stratosphere just for convenience which was cool because
we got our first taste of Las Vegas. Evan was right on time and ready to go. As soon
as everyone was settled in the van and introduced ourselves, Evan gave us the
choice of music: either Elvis or Sinatra: Our group selected Sinatra. Throughout the
day Evan told us exciting facts about Las Vegas, its origins and what makes it unique.
We also stopped by a gas station/convenience store to buy things and use the
bathroom.
When we finally arrived to our first hiking stop Zion National Park, Evan already
informed us of its creation and landscape and also of the water refill location,
museum and bathroom. He gave us our lunch which consisted of assorted sandwiches, chips and fruit and gave us about 3 hours to just hike, which we took
full advantage of and it was AMAZING!!! Be sure to take lots of pictures, rest and
drink water whenever needed. We followed the Emerald Trail which takes you on
top of a mountain and the end is a natural beach/lake. I immediately took my
sneakers off and walked into the water to cool off.
Afterwards, we drove for a while and began hiking in Bryce Canyon which was again
filled with amazing and unforgettable views. Please take your time and take a lot of
pictures!!! When we finished with Bryce Canyon we set off to our camp ground and
ate dinner. We had to pay for dinner, which was I believe $12. After we ate we
prepared for the cold night ahead as it was reported to be 40 degrees F. I came
prepared…I wore a sweater, fuzzy socks, pajama pants and stayed pretty warm
especially with the provided tent and sleeping bag.
Day 2:
Ate breakfast (cereal, muffins, peanut butter jelly sandwiches, fruit, chips, orange
juice, coffee)
Sirius music stations varied from acoustic rock to rock…basically slow jams.
We opted to do the Antelope Canyon trail and let me tell you it was worth the $50 I
spent. The views were AMAZING and your tour guide will know what angles work to
take the best picture so just give him/her the camera whenever they ask for it.
Lunch: Evan allowed us to make our own sandwiches: turkey, ham, different
cheeses, fruit, chips, bread. Amazing Tour – Amazing Guide! Read full review
