Southwest Canyon Country – Guided Motorcycle Tour

Depart the UK on your chosen scheduled flight to Las Vegas, Nevada. Upon arrival, independently make your way to your hotel, where you spend the first night of your adventure.

Viva Las Vegas! Let us know if you’d like to do some sightseeing in ‘Sin City’, and we will be happy to arrange a few extra days for you. This evening you’ll have a chance to meet your fellow riders and guide team at a detailed Orientation Meeting, followed by a great meal and some cold drinks at the tour’s Welcome Dinner. Be sure to get some rest tonight – the ride of your life is about to begin!

Grab your Harley motorcycle from EagleRider Las Vegas and let’s hit the road! You’ll see great views of Hoover Dam on your way to lunch in the historic, old west mining town of Oatman, Arizona where wild donkeys still roam the streets. Oatman marks the beginning of your journey along Historic Route 66, which you’ll enjoy over the next few days. Tonight you’ll have some fun and kick back in the Route 66 town of Kingman where cold beers and giant steaks are calling.

Get your kicks on Route 66! The perfect motorcycle riding day lies ahead, along the longest and best-preserved stretch of the original ‘Mother Road’ that still exists. As you cruise through towns like Hackberry, Peach Springs and Seligman, you might feel a sense of going back in time: with the vast, open landscapes surrounding you, and long freight trains rolling by, it will be easy to imagine what auto travel on America’s Main Street was like in generations past. If you have ever dreamed of witnessing the sunset over the rim of the Grand Canyon, your dream is about to come true. The view of this astounding sight will leave you speechless and awestruck!

Start your day with a journey along the South Rim of the Grand Canyon before setting your sights on another iconic Southwest destination: Monument Valley. You’ll continue riding across the majestic Arizona landscape, and end the day with a tour of this Natural Wonder of the World. If conditions and weather allow, you may even be able to arrange dinner and some evening entertainment, with a live performance of traditional music and dance by friends from the Navajo Nation. It doesn’t get any more authentic than this!

It’s starting to feel a bit like a dream now, as each day seems to be better than the next. Your tour of famous US National Parks continues, adding your third and fourth parks in the same place. Words often fall short of describing such wondrous cliffs, mesas, and buttes – you must see it to believe it! You will spend the next two nights in Moab, amidst the red rocks, black night skies, and brilliant white stars. This truly is the beating heart of Utah canyon country. Slow yourself down, relax, and feel the pulse of the Great American Southwest. Moab is home to several kinds of outdoor activities: hike the trails in either Arches or Canyonlands National Parks, rent a mountain bike (or a dirt bike or quad!) and tear through the wilderness, take a Hummer tour across the slick sandstone rocks, go kayaking on the Colorado River – or just hang around the pool for the day.

You are going to get an early start today, as you have plenty of miles, as well as gorgeous scenery, to cover today. First up is Capitol Reef National Park; followed by the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, both in central Utah, on some of the prettiest backroads in the USA. Your stop for the night is Bryce Canyon National Park, which has the most bizarre rock formations (called hoodoos) you will see on the tour. This day will go down as one of the great motorcycle riding days of your lifetime!

On your final morning, feel free to join in and witness a stunning sunrise over Bryce Canyon or relax with a cup of coffee in the lodge before you start your journey back to Las Vegas. Your main highlight today is the spectacular landscape of Zion, one of the crown jewels of America’s National Park system. Vibrant red and white rock walls and cliffs stretch thousands of feet toward the sun overhead, as you cruise through the river valleys of this astonishing place. After a final ride through the desert of southern Nevada, you’ll return your beloved bikes at our EagleRider Las Vegas office, and head to the hotel to get cleaned up before your crazy dinner and celebration tonight. This has been an unforgettable ride, and tonight you’ll share stories, experiences, and new friendships that will last a lifetime.

Depending on your flight time, you may have a couple of hours for some final sightseeing in Las Vegas. You will then make your own way to Las Vegas International Airport to check in for your flight back to the UK.
