About this trip
Begin in Los Angeles — the heart of America's entertainment industry — exploring Downtown, Hollywood and its Walk of Fame, Beverly Hills and Santa Monica, with a day trip to San Diego on the Pacific. From the neon of Las Vegas the route turns into the red-rock country of the South-West.
Through Utah you cross Zion and Bryce Canyon, cruise Lake Powell in Glen Canyon, stop at the Cameron trading post and stand on the rim of the Grand Canyon — one of the greatest natural wonders on Earth. The journey winds back toward Los Angeles past the Colorado River, the Wild-West town of Oatman and a stretch of the legendary Route 66, closing with a visit to the Getty Museum.
