A road trip to remember<br />
Bryce Canyon | Zion | Grand Canyon | Red Rock<br />
The coasts of the USA get a lot of love and among the cornucopia of things<br />
synonymous with them, family road trips are near the top of the list.<br />
But sticking to the seaside means you miss out on the beauty of the vast and<br />
varied national parks. With private drivers and local guides along for the<br />
ride, this tour introduces the clan to a unique take on the rich history, diverse<br />
environments and awe-inspiring landscapes of these areas of natural beauty.<br />
A different way of life<br />
A community doused in mystery and<br />
spirituality, an early start takes you into the<br />
lands of the Navajo. A tribal guide leads the<br />
way venturing into the sandstone towers of<br />
Monument Valley’s Navajo Nation Tribal Park,<br />
presenting the history of the community and<br />
what life is like in this life-on-mars-landscape<br />
before sitting down for a traditional lunch.<br />
The caring side<br />
Hikes and bike rides are of course a sustainable<br />
way to explore these wide open spaces,<br />
revealing hidden nooks that otherwise would<br />
have been missed from the car. But just visiting<br />
the national parks is a way to do some good.<br />
Tours are always educational and help keep<br />
funds within the parks to ensure both the areas<br />
and residents (both human, animal and plant<br />
alike) who live within them are protected.<br />
Take on a challenge<br />
Going off-road proves to be a turning point<br />
in bravery for your brood. Bouncing over the<br />
coral pink sand dunes on an ATV one day,<br />
exploring the crevices the tour boats can’t<br />
access around Lake Powell’s naturally formed<br />
‘rainbow bridge’ the next, and confronting<br />
any acrophobia on a helicopter flight over the<br />
Grand Canyon on another. Teaching that the<br />
easy way isn’t always the best way.<br />
Take some downtime<br />
Dawn and dusk in these otherworldly scenes<br />
are the perfect times to take things slow.<br />
An early morning induced mope is soon<br />
forgotten about as the sun rises over the<br />
Grand Canyon’s contours, inviting you to<br />
set intentions for the day ahead. Later on, a<br />
wander over the rim away from the crowds<br />
allows time to reflect on the adventures of<br />
the day.<br />
A way to remember<br />
One-upping the beautiful yet humble<br />
photograph, guides are on hand to capture<br />
the special moments on film, ready to be<br />
pieced together into a personal documentary.<br />
Keen to record each family members’<br />
highlight, it’s a way to not only look back on<br />
an amazing trip but to remember how daring,<br />
how elated and how connected everyone was.<br />
