Southwest & West Coast USA tours
With its endless desert lands, towering red rock canyons and wide stretching prairies, it’s not hard to lose yourself in the sheer immensity of America‘s Southwest landscapes.
From the iconic Grand Canyon to Arches, Bryce and Zion National Park, if you’re looking for surreal rock formations, ancient Native American wall drawings and sightings of desert-adapted wildlife then the Southwest will not disappoint. Head towards the Pacific and you’ll discover the electric Hollywood Boulevard in Los Angeles and the glittering Gold Bridge of San Francisco, that only helps add to the allure of the West Coast of USA.

Southwest USA Tour Highlights
- Arizona – When you enter Arizona, you’re truly in Wild West country. Holding some of the Nation’s biggest showstoppers within its boarders, from the Grand Canyon to Monument Valley and Cathedral Rock, Arizona is simply begging to be explored. And what better way to tour the Southwest USA than down one of the world’s most iconic highways – Route 66.
- Utah – Boasting no fewer than 5 national parks, Utah is an adventure seekers’ dream. With surreal rock formations and hanging gardens in Zion National Park, sandstone monoliths of Arches National Park and the sorbet-coloured spindles around Bryce National Park, you’re spoilt for choice when it comes to awe-inspiring landscapes in Utah.
- California – No trip to West Coast USA is considered complete without checking out the Pacific coastline. If you’re looking for sleepy seaside towns dotted with cafés, galleries and artisan eateries then rest assured that the Honey Sunshine state of California delivers as California.
- Las Vegas – There are few images that conjure up the idiom “living the American dream” quite like the iconic bright lights of the Las Vegas strip. If you’re looking for A-list entertainment, fine-dining you’ve come to the right place, but make sure you venture outside on a National Park tour from Las Vegas to take in the vast plains, alpine forest trails and epic mountain vistas outside its city borders.
Marin Popa Yellowstone Walks & Wildlife
Gordon McGowan Trek America: Canyons & National ParksThis was a great trip, made better by a fantastic guide who went out of her way to ensure everyone had a great time.
Marin Popa Trek America: Canyons & National ParksThe itinerary was very well-balanced, including a combination of various sightseeing and walks. For us, first-time visitors to these parts of the USA, every day brought something new and amazing, and we enjoyed it thoroughly. Mike, our guide, is a consummate professional – he ensured everything went like clockwork and without doubts or worries, he gave us all the information we needed, told us in an attractive storytelling manner short historical, geographical, and social narratives, enabling us to understand better the places we saw. His permanent optimism and sense of humor made everything look easy and every minute pleasant and worth remembering. The whole atmosphere was relaxing and as magical as the sites we visited. Thanks! Suggestions for improving the experience: 1. It should be noted that the seats in the van are quite narrow, especially in the last row. There were 11 of us and we fit in the van relatively comfortably. A party of 13 would feel very tight, especially on the longer drives. 2. The best accommodations were in Tonopah and Zion. I understand that there are few other options in most of the locations, but at the price we paid, better motels would have been welcomed. Sorry if I seem a bit picky – all in all, it was a trip to remember, an experience of a lifetime.
