Being a Las Vegas resident, a common question we are asked is what else there is to do in the area except for going to the casinos on the strip. Naturally when people think of a vacation to Las Vegas they are thinking about gambling and show, restaurants and hotels. While Las Vegas is obviously one of the greatest places in the world for these kinds of activities, you will realize pretty quickly that it is all kind of the same after a while. Even though the themes of the casinos may be different and you can find restaurants that serve many kinds of food, you realize that the type of entertainment in Las Vegas is all essentially the same, with the variations only being from one casino to another. Many who plan a Las Vegas vacation will potentially want to experience things outside of the strip itself, and will wonder about the accessibility of things like the national parks and spaces that make up the southwestern United States. After all, Las Vegas is situated in a completely unique area of the country that probably looks quite different than what you are used to. How can you use some of your vacation time in Las Vegas to get a sense as far as the beauty of the desert around Vegas? One of the best ways would be to visit one of the many national parks that are within driving distance of Las Vegas, essentially using the city as the starting point for a road trip.
For those of you who do not want to rent a car and drive numerous hours to the national parks in the area, especially considering that an unfamiliar car and a multiple hour drive does not seem like a lot of fun, can instead simply arrange a tour from Bindlestiff Tours. You are certainly not unique in your desire to visit some of the nearby scenic places, and using a Las Vegas vacation as the starting point for a trip to these areas is quite common. In most cases, the determination of which national park to visit has a lot to do with how many days you have to spare during your vacation. Areas like Zion Canyon National Park are only a few hours away, and as a result we like to offer multiple types of tours that will visit Zion. If you only have one day to spare, we do offer a Zion tour that will take you there and provide you with hiking and exploration opportunities, however this is more of a private tour that will need more than just yourself in your group. Our most popular offering that involves touring Zion is our three day tour, and if you have this amount of time you can actually visit Zion, Bryce, the Grand Canyon and Monument Valley all in the same trip. This is a popular vacation because it provides multiple parks each with unique elements and also uses the proximity of each park from the next to minimize the driving time. Contact us and let us know how much time you have, and we will provide you a great Zion tour from Vegas.
