10. SmallGroup Antelope Canyon/HorseshoeBend Tour from LasVegas
Antelope Canyon is a testament to the power and beauty of nature's artistic touch. The canyon was formed through the erosion of Navajo Sandstone, sculpted by flash flooding and other sub-aerial processes. Here is where your trip starts: -Las Vegas Your tour starts with pick-up from your Strip or Downtown (Freemont Street Area) hotel in Las Vegas. Then you'll hit the road heading to Antelope Canyon. -Antelope Canyon To preserve the natural integrity of Antelope Canyon and ensure visitor safety, access to the canyon is limited to guided tours. The Navajo Nation manages the Canyon and has implemented strict measures to protect this fragile ecosystem. Experienced Navajo guides lead visitors through the canyon, providing valuable insights into its geology, history, and cultural significance. These knowledgeable guides ensure visitors have a safe and enriching experience while respecting the canyon's natural beauty. Few geological formations are as picturesque and awe-inspiring as Antelope Canyon X, a magnificent slot canyon east of Page in Northern Arizona. With tall winding walls, it’s a monumental sandstone sculpture. A photographer’s dream, the canyon is known for its wave-like structure and the light beams that shine directly down into the openings of the canyon, creating a supernatural appearance. -Lake Powell/Wahweap Overlook Surprise photo spot! Be ready for this amazing view from Lake Powell. -Horseshoe Bend If you’re in search of an incredible natural vista, then Horseshoe Bend is definitely worth a visit. The name was inspired by its unusual shape, a horseshoe-shaped meander of the Colorado River located four miles southwest of Page, AZ, within the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area. The hike to the overlook is 1.5 miles (2.4 km) round-trip over a hardened path. The trail is accessible under the regulations of the Americans with Disabilities Act. There are two shade structures along the length of the trail, but not at the overlook. There are railings at the edge of the overlook's viewing platform, but not along the trail.
