Your Itinerary in Detail —
Day 1-3
Day 1-2: Discover some of the most famous and iconic sites and attractions in the world: Hollywood Sign, Santa Monica, Malibu, Beverly Hills, Universal Studios... Welcome to the largest and most populous city in the United States!
Day 3: Drive 450 km to Laughlin. Located at the southern tip of Nevada along the Colorado River at the confluence of Nevada, California and Arizona, Laughlin is today a major tourist destination for gambling and water sports.
Day 4-6
Day 4: This is certainly one of the highlights of your trip. Walk along the South Rim to see one of the most beautiful and awe-inspiring natural wonders in the world. The Grand Canyon is the result of millions of years of erosion by wind and water. It is an endless expanse of impenetrable shapes, colours and shadows. The Colorado River flows more than a mile below the rim of the canyon.
Day 5: Drive 280 km to Monument Valley. Follow the scenic Desert View Drive and stop at the Desert View Watchtower. You will have the opportunity to climb the stairs to the top for an exceptional view of the Canyon. Leave for Monument Valley and its dark red hills, where many westerns have been filmed. This 25-mile-long, 16-mile-wide desert plain overflows with gigantic sandstone monolithic structures that rise above the valley.
Day 6: Page, 200 km away, is your stopover at Lake Powell, a man-made lake created by the damming of the Colorado River. Continue your exploration by visiting Horseshoe Bend, a canyon that offers breathtaking views of the Colorado River, and Antelope Canyon, home to one of nature's most wondrous creations. The viewpoint is located 1,280 meters above sea level and the Colorado River is 975 meters above sea level, which is a dizzying drop of 305 meters.
Day 7-10
Day 7: Drive to Bryce. The scenery is stunning, especially in the Dixie National Forest. Stop in Kanab, nicknamed "Little Hollywood" because of its history as a filming location for western movies and TV shows. Continue to Bryce Canyon, one of Utah's most fascinating natural parks. The Mormons discovered this site in the 19th century. The dazzling shapes and shades of the memorable pink cliffs change constantly from dawn to dusk.
Day 8-9: Drive to Las Vega, around 420 km. Plan a visit to Zion National Park, Utah's oldest park. This natural wonder will impress you with its cathedral-shaped rocks, some of which are over 900 meters high, and its great diversity of plant and animal life. You'll then move from the calm and serenity of the parks to the lights and extravagance of Las Vegas. A lost oasis in the Nevada desert, "Sin City" is where luxury and entertainment are at their peak as lights, games, glitter and stars shine through the night.
Day 10: Your road trip in the States has come to an end... Drive to the airport, return your rental car and hop on your flight back home!
