If you’ve ever dreamed about the ultimate American road trip, this might be it.

In this episode of All Things Travel, Ryan and Julie break down an unforgettable journey through the Grand Circle—a scenic loop through the American Southwest that brings together some of the most iconic landscapes in the United States. Think towering red rock canyons, winding scenic highways, and not one… but 10 national parks in a single trip.

Starting in Las Vegas, this two-week itinerary takes you through breathtaking stops like Zion and Bryce Canyon, the hidden gem of Capitol Reef, and the adventure hub of Moab—home to Arches and Canyonlands National Parks. From there, you’ll experience the iconic beauty of Monument Valley, the surreal landscapes of Page, Arizona (including Horseshoe Bend and Antelope Canyon), and finish with the awe-inspiring Grand Canyon.

But this isn’t just about where to go—it’s about how to experience it.

Ryan and Julie share:

•  A realistic 2-week route (with flexibility to customize) 
•  What each stop is known for—and why it’s worth your time 
•  Practical tips for planning a road trip like this (timing, lodging, park passes, and more) 
•  How to balance must-see highlights with spontaneous moments along the way 

Whether you’re a couple looking for your next big adventure, a family planning a memory-making trip, or someone who’s always had the National Parks on your list—this episode will help you turn that idea into a plan.
