Red Rock Canyon – The Most Beautiful Area In The Southwest

An hour away from Vegas, it hits you. You’re no longer in the city.
The clear skies really bring everything out. Joshua trees thrive in places few other trees can, while wild donkeys and big horn sheep roam the steep hills.
Then there are the rocks. It isn’t just the red color that draws you in – it’s the formations. Red Rock Canyon State Park used to be an ocean floor, which is why the layers and textures of the rock look different from any other place on earth.
In some places, the rock formations look like the clay toys of long-gone giants.
Here, you’ll find what you were missing in the city.
While every view is breathtaking, your experience will be even greater when guided by experts who know where to go.
Reserve a spot on our Red Rock Canyon Tours. On every tour we pick you up from your Vegas hotel, and show you around the Joshua trees, Indian Pictographs, and Cacti.
To top it all off, you’ll see the Keystone Thrust Fault, which some say is 65 million years old. Regardless of how old it is, it is very beautiful. You’ll probably fill up your camera to its limit with photos of this one-of-a-kind place.
We have three packages that include a visit to Red Rocks. Click on the ‘Las Vegas Bus Tours’ menu option to see them all.
