We begin our journey with our flight from CVG to Salt Lake City where we’re met by our deluxe motorcoach for the brief ride into the city itself. Once in Salt Lake we’re treated to a city tour, including TEMPLE SQUARE, home to the Mormon Tabernacle and our attendance at the TABERNACLE CHOIR’S evening rehearsal. The next day we head away from Salt Lake for our day trip out to Park City and the home to the SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL and U.S. OLYMPIC TRAINING SITE. Then onto PROVO home to Robert Redford’s SUNDANCE RESORT, our stop for lunch. Saturday takes us to the amazing natural wonder of BRYCE CANYON NATIONAL PARK. Thousands of delicately carved spires rise in brilliant color from the amphitheatres of the canyons, formed by millions of years of winds, water and geologic mayhem. Next we’re off to Utah’s oldest national park ZION NATIONAL PARK designated in 1919. The Virgin River has gnawed through native sandstone to create the incredible scenery found in Zion. Our evening invites us to a COWBOY RODEO complete with campfire favorite ‘vittles’ and the thrilling feats of cowboys. The following morning we head off to Cedar City to share in their nationally renowned UTAH SHAKESPEARE FESTIVALS presentation of Great Expectations (or Pride and Prejudice). Off to the Four Corners region we take in our final area of this diverse state, ARCHES NATIONAL PARK and nearby MOAB. This red rock wonderland contains some of the most scenic and inspiring landscapes anywhere with the world’s largest concentration of natural sandstone arches. Our evening is mellowed with a visit to the CASTLE CREEK WINERY for dinner and wine tasting before heading back to Salt Lake the following day and our return flight to Cincinnati.
