US National Parks

This spectacular journey through the US national parks of Arizona and Utah offers an in-depth experience of nature and wildlife: from the expansive walls of the Grand Canyon to the majestic pillars of Zion.

Nicholas Fabbri
Scenset travel curator

Take in some of the most iconic spots in the southwest US on this weeklong family road trip. Enjoy the excess and quirkiness of Vegas, family-style, before hitting the road and exploring two of the best National Parks in the region.

The Grand Canyon needs no introduction, and the majesty and beauty of this crown jewel sees millions of people visiting each year to explore the canyon, inside and out. From there, head to Southern Utah and experience Zion, which makes up for it's smaller stature in sheer beauty. With a stop at the infamous Antelope Canyon along the way, take these 8 days and see what natural wonders await.

Day 2: Drive to Grand Canyon

Hit the road this morning and make your way to the Grand Canyon, making a stop at a famous town along the way.

🍔
Seligman, AZ

The Seligman of today owes a lot to a soft-spoken Seligman barber who led efforts to preserve Route 66. When the town was bypassed by Interstate 40 in 1978, he formed the Historic Route 66 Association of Arizona. In 1987, Seligman became the Birthplace of Historic Route 66 when the State of Arizona acknowledged the stretch of road from Seligman to Kingman as Historic Route 66. The designation regenerated interest in Route 66's old-fashioned Americana, and Seligman remains as the starting point of the longest surviving section of America's iconic road, which runs 160 miles to Topock, Arizona.
