Were you aware that Las Vegas is a perfect starting point for numerous tours of southwestern national parks? This may come as a surprise to many people, but the fact that Las Vegas itself is positioned as the perfect place to begin the road trip to any number of southwestern national parks is something that eludes many people. You must realize that Las Vegas itself was created as a stopover for people traveling across the Mojave Desert from the east coast to California. Because the trip across the un-populated desert took so long through conditions that were less than favorable, there needed to be a place where people traveling could stop along the way in order to rest and restock their supplies. This became Las Vegas, an area where conditions were livable enough for a small amount of people to stay there and provide services for the travelers that were passing through. Over time, Las Vegas grew to be more of what we know it as today, a destination that people actually travel to, instead of simply passing through on the way to somewhere else. Now, this positioning puts Las Vegas into the discussion once again as a point to start at, specifically because the national parks of the southwestern United States are relatively remote, and must be driven to in most cases. The need for a starting point that can handle major airline traffic is necessary, and when you compare the driving distances from most other cities in the area, Las Vegas makes the most sense. In addition to this fact, Las Vegas also has more hotels and restaurants than almost everywhere on earth.
So if you are traveling to Las Vegas and want to tour a national park or two, which ones are the best to try? That answer depends what you are looking for. If you are trying to only spend one day away from Las Vegas, then Zion Canyon might be the right tour for you. Zion is located only 2.5 hours from the strip, while most other parks are located about 4 hours away. If you are willing to drive the extra distance, you might want to check out Bryce Canyon, Antelope Canyon, Monument Valley and of course the Grand Canyon. The best way to do these types of tours is to plan on visiting several of the parks, and use the fact that they are closer to each other than they are to Las Vegas in order to conserve driving time. That way, you will spend more time exploring the beauty of the parks and less time driving. Naturally, we suggest allowing us to do the driving for you, and you can just sit back and relax while we take care of everything from the best places to visit to your meals.
