Fly from the UK to Las Vegas, USA.

Kick off your adventure in the glitzy heart of Las Vegas. While the Strip dazzles with neon lights, prepare to soon exchange those for the natural brilliance of Arizona’s dark skies. Enjoy a night of culinary delights and maybe a little roulette; after all, what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. Tomorrow, you'll trade the city hustle for the open road and starlit skies. 

Pick up your El Monte Motorhome and hit the road toward the Grand Canyon, where nature’s grandeur is on full display. As you stand on the rim, the vastness will steal your breath away. Join a Grand Canyon Sunset Tour to witness the canyon walls blaze with fiery hues before twinkling stars blanket the sky. The canyon is a designated Dark Sky Park, offering unobstructed views of the Milky Way. The only thing more endless than the canyon's beauty is the galaxy above it.

A drive to Chinle leads you to the spiritual heart of Navajo Nation. Here, the night skies are as rich with stories as the landscapes are with history. Canyon de Chelly National Monument offers a stunning backdrop for stargazing, with its majestic sandstone cliffs silhouetted against the starry sky. Take a moment to listen to the whispered tales of the constellations, shared by local guides, and allow the ancient land to speak to your soul as you gaze upwards.

Holbrook is your gateway to the Petrified Forest, a Certified IDA Dark Sky Park. During the day, wander among fossilised trees that are over 200 million years old; by night, marvel at an equally ancient and awe-inspiring sky. The celestial spectacle here is unparalleled, with stars so bright they seem to sing. Whether you’re a seasoned astronomer or a curious novice, the Petrified Forest promises a night sky show that’s out of this world.

In Phoenix, the city lights may glow, but the surrounding desert offers a serene escape for night-time sky watching. Enjoy the urban energy by day—perhaps with a hike up Camelback Mountain or a visit to the Desert Botanical Garden. As the sun sets, drive out to a nearby desert spot to savour the clarity of an Arizona night sky. 

Your penultimate stop is Lake Havasu City, where the London Bridge resides. By day, enjoy water activities and explore the charming waterfront. As night falls, prepare for a final night under Arizona’s impressive skies. Set up your telescope by the lake, where the dark sky reflects the stars, making it seem like the heavens and earth have become one. A fitting finale before you head back to the neon lights of Las Vegas, carrying the universe's secrets with you.

Drive from Lake Havasu City to Las Vegas, then fly to the UK.
