Introduction
Dear Traveler, thank you for choosing The Molt Collection.
We have meticulously selected every tour and adventure to make sure that this will not just become another trip but the experience of a lifetime.
Here below is the itinerary. The information is indicative and may have variations on designated tours.
Day
Reception at the airport and transfer to the hotel.
Rest of the day at leisure. In the evening, we will meet for a tour of the illuminated city: we will visit two extraordinary hotels, the Venetian and Ceasar's Palace, as well as appreciate the fountains of the Bellagio Hotel. We will then travel to the south of the city to see the technological marvel that is the light show on Fremont Street.

Breakfast. Departure for a walking tour of the city; it is really a walk inside the hotels, we will touch little of the street. Each hotel is a world unto itself: thousands of rooms and themed decorations unparalleled in the world, dedicated to entertaining guests and visitors in every possible way. We will use part of the morning for this leisurely visit.
In the evening we will attend one of the performances presented by the extraordinary Cirque Du Soleil: a contemporary circus that relies on a mixture of theatre, lights, acrobatics, gravity-defying acts, colour and the absence of animals, to give the spectator a unique and unforgettable experience.

Breakfast. We will spend the day visiting the Hoover Dam. Located a short distance from Las Vegas,
We will take a short walk, but it is a foretaste of what will be a large part of the Mojave Desert tour. Built in 1935, the massive concrete dam was the largest hydroelectric power production facility in the world and is still considered a feat of world engineering.
At the stop in front of the lake we will be confronted with the ‘reality check’ of the water shortage on the Colorado River and the grey outlook for the region if this problem is not urgently addressed.
We will make several photo stops and return to the city to continue to the hotel or to the outlets and spend part of the afternoon shopping. Return to the hotel, accommodation and rest of the day at leisure.

Breakfast. We will leave the state of Nevada for Arizona, the real start of an arid landscape with a thousand shapes and shades of red as a constant backdrop. We will stop in Seligman, an almost forgotten hamlet on a surviving stretch of the legendary Route 66. Time for lunch in Williams, before heading directly to the Grand Canyon National Park. Overnight in Tusayan.
Breakfast. A quiet day, but not that quiet: the Grand Canyon leaves no one indifferent, the emotions are impossible to contain and the park is one of the great wonders of nature.
Created over millions of years by the silent protagonist of the trip, the Colorado River, this will be the first big step on this unparalleled journey.
Today we will take a spectacular helicopter flight over the Grand Canyon, an unforgettable 25 minutes!!!!

Breakfast. Departure from the hotel and drive through ‘red rock country’ to Page, with several photo stops before arriving at the hotel. One of them will be at the meander of the Colorado, known as the ‘Horse shoe Bend’. Today we will take another incredible helicopter overflight, landing on the ‘Tower Butter’ with unique views from the top.
Breakfast. Day dedicated entirely to the area. Page is a very small town, a product of the need to provide housing for the labourers who worked on the construction of the Glen Canyon Dam. It is located in the territory of the Great Navajo Nation and is surrounded by natural attractions including Antelope Canyon, a slot canyon formed by the intervention of water, also over millions of years. In this place, impossible to describe, you will be accompanied by an invaluable native guide.
Lake Powell is a man-made lake, created from the Colorado River for the construction of the Glen Canyon Dam, and completed in 1963. It is almost 300 km long and is located between Arizona and Utah. The area is a popular recreational area for a variety of water sports.
Its spectacular scenery has been the setting for several films, including the 1967 sci-fi classic ‘Planet of the Apes’.
It took 17 years for the lake to fill up completely, and today we will take a cruise around this wonderful place.

Breakfast. Arriving in Monument Valley is like being in a Wild West movie. John Wayne is constantly mentioned, as is Thelma and Louise.
The Navajo natives manage this region and have created vehicles that adapt easily to the park's rugged terrain.
A visit that rejoices the eye and the spirit, but also leaves a taste of a social status that is hard to forget.
We will continue on to Bluff in Utah, but first we will take a short detour from the road to visit a little-known place: Goose Neck State Park. Tonight we will spend the night in the middle of the desert, in a town of barely 500 inhabitants; and if the night is clear, it will be generous and starry to our delight.

Breakfast. Today is a full day out and back to visit Mesa Verde National Park. It is also a World Heritage Site. It contains numerous ruins of villages built by the Anasazi people. The constructions built in the caves and under the cliffs are of particular interest, especially the well-known ‘Cliff Palace’. Together with a Tangier we will visit these constructions which date back 700 years. Return to the hotel.
Breakfast. In the morning we check out of the hotel and travel 90 minutes to visit the Arches National Park. This park is a set of natural geological structures, which are the product of movements of the salt bed of an extinct sea on which layers and layers of sediments accumulated and where agents such as heat, pressure and erosion contributed to the creation of these fantastic structures. Arrival in Moab and overnight.
Breakfast. Canyonlands National Park preserves a colourful and eroded landscape resulting in numerous canyons, mesas and ridges, formed by the Colorado River, the Verde River and their tributaries. A full day of nature enjoyment.
Breakfast, drive to Salt Lake City for a morning and afternoon city tour. Special emphasis will be placed on the central Mormon religious complex. A really interesting place that shows the history and the struggle of the pioneers of the West to establish a fixed location, to free themselves from the antagonism they encountered throughout their history and to grow their religion without fear of persecution. We will continue the visit and include the Utah State Capitol and a brief tour of the state university. Lodging.
Breakfast and drive by highway to West Yellowstone. Immediately upon arrival we head to Yellowstone National Park, the jewel in the crown of our trip. We will spend the next two days touring the park.
We begin this adventure by visiting one of its main attractions, the ‘Old Faithful’, a constant and accurate geyser that has been ‘belching’ more than 20,000 litres of water without interruption every 45 minutes for the last 2000 years.

Breakfast. This is a full day. Today's attractions in the park are not going to stop. Among them is the ‘Grand Prismatic’, which is the largest hot spring in the United States of America and the third largest in the world.
The geologists who discovered it in 1971 named it for its striking placement, which matches most of the colours seen in the scattering of white rainbow light through an optical prism: red, orange, green and blue. Also on the tour will be Yellowstone Lake and the Grand Canyon of the same name, another extraordinary site.
A visit to this park, which is only slightly smaller in area than Puerto Rico, will be unforgettable. Everywhere you look you will find not only thousands of geological entities, but especially a rich and protected fauna: wolves, bison, bears, foxes, etc. It is also the first National Park in the world.
