Dolce Tempo Journey among National Park Jewels & Incredible Canyons
Hoodoos, arches and mazes, oh my! Zion and Bryce’s geologic curiosities make you wonder at the mysterious forces that put them here. And there’s plenty of time to wonder. On trails through slot canyons bursting with wildflowers. On a peaceful ride with rose-colored sandstone walls towering all around you. Or on a starry night poised on the canyon rim. This magical land doesn’t have to exist only in your imagination.
Highlights
- Explore the two distinct and dramatic landscapes of Zion and Bryce National Parks and discover the charming and artsy town of Springdale
- Stunning views await on rides through colorful Snow Canyon and Zion's canyon floor and as you walk among Bryce’s vibrantly colored hoodoos and spires
- Discover Zion’s most notable features, including narrow slot canyons, rushing rivers and towering cliffs on your choice of walking and hiking routes
- Enjoy comfortable and historical national park lodges surrounded by unforgettable landscapes—retreats ideal for catching an epic sunset or sipping a glass of wine under a sea of stars

We want to make sure you're on the trip that's right for you. Every Backroads trip is unique and this one is no exception.
While the accommodations on this trip reflect the natural surroundings of the national parks and provide unparalleled access to the best activities in the area, the Lodge at Bryce Canyon is simpler than is typical of Backroads lodging. The lodge's basic guest rooms are not equipped with televisions or air-conditioning (nights are usually cool due to the high elevation). Overall, the service standards can seem slow and casual when compared with the hospitality found on other Backroads trips. Please note that internet and cell phone service are extremely limited throughout the parks.
