3D2N Grand Canyon, Zion, Bryce, Antelope & Monument Valley Tour

The best reason to take this three-day trip is the sheer range: you leave Las Vegas for red-rock parks, sandstone country and the Grand Canyon, without having to plan a long driving loop yourself. Six major stops make for a big, fast-moving tour, with two nights in Page to break up the miles.

I like the mix of included park admissions and meals, which makes the main costs easier to plan, and the small-group van, capped at 14 people. The Page hotel also puts you near the route’s sunrise and sunset viewpoints, a welcome change from spending every night on the road.

The trade-off is pace. This is a lot of ground in three days, and some of the most distinctive add-ons, including the Antelope Canyon walk and Monument Valley Jeep tour, cost extra. You’ll also need to be comfortable walking and climbing stairs.

• Six Southwestern stops in three days: Zion, Bryce Canyon, Lower Antelope Canyon, Horseshoe Bend, Monument Valley and the Grand Canyon South Rim.
• A manageable group size: Vans carry 1 to 14 people, though at least four participants are needed for the tour to run.
• Two nights in Page: The overnight stop breaks up the journey and offers access to sunrise and sunset viewpoints.
• A few key fees are extra: Antelope Canyon admission is $80 and the Monument Valley Navajo Jeep tour is $75.
• Pack light and wear sturdy shoes: Only soft bags are permitted, and the tour involves a considerable amount of walking and stairs.

This tour is built for you if you want to see several headline sights in Utah and Arizona but don’t want to drive between them yourself. Over three days and two nights, you visit Zion National Park, Bryce Canyon National Park, Lower Antelope Canyon, Horseshoe Bend, Monument Valley and the Grand Canyon’s South Rim, then return to Las Vegas around 6 p.m. on the third day.

That range is the main attraction, and also the main compromise. Each stop gives you a different view of the region, but you won’t have the time you’d get by staying in one park for several days. Think of this as a scenic sampler, not a slow hiking holiday.

You’ll travel in a modern van with rooftop air conditioning, WiFi, USB charging ports, snacks, drinks and bottled water. Those details matter on a route with plenty of driving: a charged phone and a cold drink make the hours between viewpoints easier. Hotel pickup is offered within two miles of the Las Vegas Strip and Downtown Las Vegas.

Zion’s red rock and trails

Zion is a strong early highlight. The tour takes you into the valley of towering red rock and the Virgin River, where the scale of the cliffs is part of the experience. Even if you’re not planning a strenuous hike, there’s a lot to take in from the park’s trails and viewpoints.

You should be ready to walk rather than treat this as a series of quick photo stops. The tour notes considerable walking and stairs, and suitable walking or hiking shoes are recommended. A recent trip led by guide Scott was especially praised for its Zion trails, a useful sign for anyone hoping to spend meaningful time on foot here.

The time available at each stop can vary with traffic and weather, so don’t count on a particular trail or a fixed amount of time in the park. If Zion is the place you most want to explore, a longer stay in the park will give you more freedom than this multi-stop route.

Bryce Canyon brings a different kind of scenery

Bryce Canyon adds another side of southern Utah to the trip. It’s a national park stop, and admission is included. The contrast with Zion is part of the appeal: you’re not spending three days looking at the same kind of red-rock setting.

The drawback is familiar: the schedule has to keep moving. You’ll have time to see the park as part of the tour, but the supplied plan doesn’t promise a particular trail, viewpoint or length of visit. If you’re keen to hike at length, this may feel brief. If your priority is seeing several parks in one trip, it earns its place on the route.

Lower Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bend

Lower Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bend bring two different Arizona stops into the itinerary. Antelope Canyon is an optional guided walk, and the entrance fee is listed at $80. Budget for it separately rather than assuming it’s covered by the tour price.

The canyon visit also means following a guided experience rather than setting off on your own. That gives you a structured way to see the site, but it’s another reason to check the pace and walking requirements before booking. The tour already involves stairs and substantial walking, so it’s not a good fit if those are a concern.

Horseshoe Bend adds a memorable viewpoint to the day. It’s one of the named stops, but exact timing and stop order can change with road conditions and weather. Keep a little flexibility in mind, especially if you’re hoping to catch a particular light or spend a long time at one place.

Monument Valley’s buttes, with an optional Jeep tour

Monument Valley is known here for its steep sandstone buttes, a striking change of scene from the national parks. You can take in the setting as part of the tour, or pay an additional $75 for the Monument Valley Navajo Jeep tour.

That Jeep ride is an optional extra, not part of the base inclusions. If it’s important to you, factor the cost in when comparing packages. The added fee is worth considering alongside the Antelope Canyon charge, since these two activities can make a meaningful difference to the final price.

The tour also includes bonus stops along Route 66. Those breaks add a little roadside character to a trip otherwise centered on parks and big natural sights, though no specific Route 66 stops are guaranteed.

The Grand Canyon South Rim as a final major stop

The Grand Canyon South Rim rounds out the route and is one of the three national parks whose admission is included. It’s a fitting close to a trip that has moved through several distinct Southwestern settings, from Zion’s red-rock valley to Monument Valley’s sandstone buttes.

As with the other stops, the tour’s strength is access to a famous place within a wider itinerary. Its limitation is time: you’re seeing the South Rim as one part of a three-day loop, not spending a full stay at the canyon. If the Grand Canyon is your top priority, compare this tour with options that give it more time.

Page makes the two-night schedule more practical

Two nights of accommodation in a designated hotel in Page, Arizona, help divide the journey into manageable sections. Page also offers access to sunrise and sunset viewpoints, so the overnight stop is more than a place to sleep between drives.

The included meals are specific: two breakfasts, two lunches and one dinner. Dinner on the second night and lunch on the third day are not included, so plan to pay for those yourself. Snacks, drinks and bottled water are provided during the trip, which helps between meal stops.

The schedule starts early, with a 6 a.m. departure from Las Vegas, and the return is expected around 6 p.m. on day three. Pickup can be early or late because it’s a shared transfer. Enter your hotel name and address when booking, arrive 15 minutes before the stated departure time, and wait for the operator to confirm your pickup details.

What the price covers, and what it doesn’t

The advertised price starts at $1,264.99 for the named experience. A separate join-in package covering Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon and Zion starts at $1,099.99, but it doesn’t offer the same six-stop route. Compare what each package includes, not just the starting price.

The main tour price covers round-trip hotel transfers, two nights’ accommodation, an English-speaking guide, WiFi, refreshments, snacks, the listed meals and admission to Zion, Bryce Canyon and the Grand Canyon. For a three-day trip with multiple park visits, transport and lodging included, that can be a practical alternative to arranging each part yourself.

Still, the optional fees add up. Antelope Canyon admission costs $80, and the Monument Valley Navajo Jeep tour costs $75. Personal expenses, tips, the second-night dinner and third-day lunch are also extra.

There’s an important additional charge for some international visitors. Starting January 1, 2026, non-US residents aged 16 and over may be charged $100 per person, per national park. The fee is payable on site and subject to change. If you plan to visit more than two parks, the listed America the Beautiful Non-Resident Annual Pass costs $250, covers up to four adults and waives the per-park fee. Check current rules and eligibility before you go.

Who should book this fast-paced tour

I’d choose this trip if your priority is seeing several famous Southwestern sights in one go, and you’re willing to trade long park visits for breadth. It’s also a sensible option if you’d rather leave the long drives, hotel transfers and route planning to a guide.

It’s less suitable if you want an unhurried hiking trip, need step-free access, or prefer to plan every stop around your own schedule. The tour isn’t wheelchair- or stroller-accessible, and participants must be at least five years old. It requires a minimum of four people to run, with a maximum group size of 14.

Pack sunscreen, sunglasses and a hat, along with a valid ID. Choose walking or hiking shoes, and dress for the day’s weather. Only soft-style bags such as backpacks or duffels are allowed; hard luggage and suitcases are not. Las Vegas hotels can usually store larger bags for free, but check with yours before you arrive.

Should you book it?

Book this tour if you want a broad look at the Southwest, value having transport and two nights’ lodging arranged, and can handle early starts, long drives and plenty of walking. The small-group cap and included park admissions help make the logistics easier.

Skip it if you’d rather spend several days in one park, or if the optional activities and possible non-resident fees push the total beyond your budget. Before paying, compare the six-stop route with the lower-priced three-park option and decide whether Antelope Canyon and Monument Valley are must-sees for you.
