This fabulous trip begins in Salt Lake City, Utah’s capital and most populous city. The city boasts several options for outdoor adventures in its canyons and mountains. Let’s not forget the Great Salt Lake, which supplies the town with scenic views and loads of water activities.

From there, a ground transfer takes you to Moab – the Adventure Capital of Utah! There’ll be no shortage of activities here to explore the region – including hikes, jeep and horseback rides that lead to incredible views! On the next day, it’s time to board the fabulous Rocky Mountaineer train in Moab and embark on the Rockies to the Red Rock tour, travelling between Moab and Denver. You’ll cross the Utah-Colorado border with stunning mountain views in the background and other extraordinary landscapes including vast canyons, natural archways and enchanting hoodoos. The journey is filled with highlights best seen by train and includes overnight stays in Glenwood Springs and Denver.

After this delightful rail trip, you’ll have another two nights to enjoy the vibrant city of Denver. The Mile-High City has so much to offer: 300 days of sunshine, natural beauties and a thriving cultural and gastronomic scene. Get acquainted with the unique art and history while trying some of the local craft beers at the 100 brewpubs in town. The cherry on top before returning to Dublin!
