If you are planning on traveling to Zion National Park this summer (and if so, you’re one of almost 3 million people who choose this destination each year!), expect to see some construction in the park.

For those of you traveling this summer, here are some tips that are not generally common knowledge to most people: Rent a car by the hour.

For nearly all of our clients that start their trip in Salt Lake City and are heading north to Yellowstone and Grand Teton National parks, the first night is almost always at Bear Lake. Straddling the Utah and Idaho border, Bear Lake is a great place to get familiar with your RV as well as […]
