Most guided tours include the standard entry fees for US residents. However, non-US residents (ages 16 and up) are subject to an additional $100 per person fee per park, which is collected in-destination.
Tours operating during the peak season from May through September sell out quickly. If you want a small-group or multi-day lodging tour, it is highly recommended to book several weeks in advance.
While audio tours and scenic drives accommodate all fitness levels, some guided tours require a moderate level of fitness to navigate uneven terrain at Bryce's 8,000+ foot elevation.
If you want to see more of the Southwest, look for 3-day itineraries that bundle Zion and Bryce with the Grand Canyon, Antelope Canyon, and a Navajo-guided Jeep tour in Monument Valley.
Day tours from Vegas usually restrict luggage to one piece per guest or a small daypack. Multi-day tours have strict weight limits, typically capping your luggage at 44 lbs (20 kg).
Temperatures can swing by 50°F in a single day, especially at Bryce's high elevation. Bring warm layers, sturdy hiking boots with lug traction, and plenty of water to combat the dry air.
Most single-day tours offer a full refund if canceled at least 24 hours in advance. Multi-day tours are stricter, often requiring 6 to 14 days' notice for a full refund.

Bryce Canyon National Park is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. However, specific facilities operate on seasonal schedules.
Zion National Park is also open year-round, but access to the Zion Canyon Scenic Drive is restricted to park shuttles only from March through November.
Most guided tours depart from Las Vegas, which is about 248 miles away. The drive takes roughly 4 hours via Interstate 15 North to UT-9 (through Zion), then US-89 North to the UT-12 Scenic Byway, and finally UT-63 South into Bryce Canyon.
If you are driving from Salt Lake City, the park is 270 miles away via I-15 South and US-89. Once you arrive in the Bryce Canyon area, you can park your car at Ruby's Inn in Bryce Canyon City and take the free park shuttle, which runs every 15 to 20 minutes and is included with your $35.00 park entrance fee.
The most popular and ideal months to visit are May through September. During this time, you can expect pleasant hiking weather with daytime temperatures typically in the 60s and 70s. Late May and September are particularly recommended to balance mild weather with fewer crowds.
The winter season (November through March) brings freezing temperatures, with daytime highs rarely breaking 40°F. While the snow-capped hoodoos are incredibly scenic, winter visits are subject to temporary road closures, and you must use metal traction gear if you plan to hike the icy trails.
Bryce Canyon is highly accessible for all visitors. The park features wheelchair-accessible shuttle buses equipped with powered lifts. The Visitor Center has ramps, a lowered desk, and accessible restrooms.
Note on Elevation: The park sits at 8,000 to 9,115 feet. Visitors who tire easily or have cardiovascular issues should allow time to acclimate to the thin air and take trails slowly.
Inside Bryce Canyon, visitors have access to a fully staffed Visitor Center, seasonal campgrounds (North and Sunset), and a free shuttle system during the warmer months.
Because local wildlife like mule deer and small rodents are highly active, all food and scented items must be stored in hard-shell containers if you are camping. If you require medical attention, the nearest full-service facility is Garfield Memorial Hospital in Panguitch, about 45 minutes away.
Federal law protects all natural features in the parks. Please observe the following rules:
Usually, day tours only allow for short rim walks or 1 to 2 hours of free time per park due to the long 4-hour drive each way. If you want to do deep hikes like the Queens Garden Trail, consider a multi-day tour or driving yourself.
Standard US resident entrance fees are typically included in guided tour prices. However, non-US residents must pay an extra $100 per person fee at the parks, which is collected in-destination by the operator.
No, you do not need cell service while in the parks. You simply download the app and the tour data over WiFi before you arrive, and the audio will trigger automatically using your phone's offline GPS.
Most day tours from Las Vegas restrict luggage to one small bag or daypack per person due to limited space in the vans. Multi-day tours usually allow up to 44 lbs per person.
Dress in warm, moisture-wicking layers. Bryce Canyon sits at over 8,000 feet in elevation and can be up to 50°F colder than Las Vegas or Zion. Sturdy hiking boots with good traction are a must.
Many full-day guided tours include a boxed lunch and bottled water. Multi-day camping tours often provide breakfast and lunch, but you should always check your specific itinerary to see what is covered.
During the busy season from March to November, private cars cannot drive the Zion Canyon Scenic Drive. You will need to park and ride the free park shuttle, listening to the audio tour with headphones.
The park reaches up to 9,115 feet, meaning the air has about 70 percent of the oxygen found at sea level. Drink plenty of water, bring salty snacks, and take it easy on uphill trails to avoid altitude fatigue.
The self-guided audio tours and point-to-point shuttles are accessible, and Bryce Canyon has accessible overlooks and shuttles. However, small-group van tours may not accommodate wheelchairs, so check with the specific operator before booking.
Yes, both parks are open year-round, but itineraries may change due to snow or ice. Winter visitors to Bryce will see beautiful snow-capped hoodoos but should rent metal traction gear for any trail walking.
