Westerner 3

Check out the glitz and the glam of Hollywood on a tour of this star-studded neighbourhood including the Walk of Fame and views of the gigantic Hollywood sign. Departing ‘The City of Angels’ you'll travel up the sparkling Californian coastline towards Santa Barbara and enjoy some time exploring the pier and shops, or relaxing on the beach. Known as 'The American Riviera', you'll find no shortage of palm trees to sit beneath. Continue onto San Luis Obispo where a night under the Californian stars and chance to swim in the Pacific Ocean will be just the thing to finish the perfect day.

Prepare to be wowed as you witness thundering waterfalls, granite peaks and towering Giant Sequoia trees in stunning Yosemite National Park. Amazing scenery lies around every corner as well as an abundance of wildlife. Look out for bears, coyotes and other wildlife that calls the park home. To be part of the action why not take a float trip on the Merced River or hike the Mist Trail to Vernal Falls for jaw-dropping views every step of the way?

Visit Rachel in Nevada, the closest town to the former secret US Air Force site known as Area 51 and a very popular destination with UFO hunters! Make a stop at Little A'Le Inn Bar for close encounters of the alien kind. Head to Zion National Park and for unbelievable 360 degree views, hike colourful canyons up to Angels Landing. The hike itself will leave you breathless in more ways than one! If you prefer to take the low road, lace up your boots and prepare to get wet as you wade through the magnificent Narrows, deep-cut canyons between cathedral-like sandstone walls that have been carved out by the Virgin River. Whether you're up top or down below, you'll get a real sense of how unique and beautiful this place is and Zion will blow your mind!

In the heart of red rock country, Capitol Reef National Park is packed full of cliffs, petroglyphs, canyons and domes and you've only got Mother Nature to thank for that. From one incredible place to the next, you're in Utah's undisputed adventure capital, which guarantees non-stop fun for everyone! With two days at Arches National Park you'll have plenty of time to explore some of the 2,000 gravity defying sandstone arches. Take a sunset stroll and watch as the sun sets over Delicate Arch or, for the action lovers, hire a mountain bike for some adrenaline pumping cycling along Moab's slick rock path or take an off-road Hummer tour. For the ultimate adventure head down the Colorado River on an optional float trip and see this stunning place from a different perspective.

Visit the iconic viewpoint of Horseshoe Bend, overlooking a stunning stretch of the Colorado River. Yep you've guessed it, it's in the shape of a horseshoe and also one of the most photographed areas on the Colorado River. Straddling the border of Utah and Arizona, Lake Powell is a desert paradise with a long list of things to do. Go for a swim in the crystal clear waters or simply sit by the shore and relax.

Today will define the word ‘road trip’ as you cruise down the original Route 66! You'll stop off at the iconic sights such as the town of Seligman which sits frozen in time and has tons of shops full of Americana memorabilia. But then it's time for Vegas, baby! Nowhere on earth is quite like it. Why not treat yourself to a high-rolling party bus ride, indulge in an all-you-can-eat buffet, take in a show or just watch the amazing crowds and neon signs as the glitzy hotels try to outdo each other with spectacular attractions? And if that's not enough, you could take an optional helicopter flight down The Strip. Just remember, 'what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas'.
