I was amazed by the diversity on this tour. Yosemite’s scenery was awe-inspiring, and the overnight cabin in Yellowstone made the visit truly memorable. Touring the Grand Canyon West Rim was spectacular, and exploring Utah’s State Capitol and Temple Square gave a nice cultural contrast to the natural wonders.
