October 1-12, 2024

Arizona and Utah are home to some of the most breathtaking landscapes in the world. These states’ magnificent red rock formations, their exotic desert life, and their dramatic canyons make Arizona and Utah a truly magical holiday destination. Beyond their dramatic landscapes, the confluence of the Native American and “the old west” heritage is also a compelling reason for a visit to this part of the southwest. Don’t forget the near perfect climate. With sunshine almost every day you are sure to find your Canyon experience a remarkable holiday.

Travac Tours wants to send you to Arizona – as well as its neighbours, Nevada and Utah – for twelve days of exploration, relaxation and excitement. You’ll fly to Las Vegas to start your tour. You’ll visit Sedona, Flagstaff, the Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon, Page, and Zion National Park. Your last stop will be in Phoenix.

Travac’s Arizona Tour includes return transfers from Ottawa to Montreal, airfare from Montreal, visits to Valley of Fire state park, Antelope Canyon, Bryce Canyon, Zion National Park in Utah, and the Grand Canyon, all accommodation and transportation, and a stop in the city of lights, Las Vegas!

Demand for this tour is very high and it will sell out quickly. Early booking is essential if you wish to be part of this Travac experience!
