Referring to Arches, Edward Abbey opens Desert Solitaire with these words: “This is the most beautiful place on earth.” Here is where Nature as Artist does some of her most impressive work. Rock arches and natural bridges defy belief and, it seems, gravity. Our hikes into remote canyons and through slickrock country take us through time: time when all around us was a shallow inland sea, time when the Anasazi inscribed their mysteries on the walls of these canyons. In the warmth of a sunny day, the sky is so blue it dazzles you. In the cool clear nights, it’s the stars that are dazzling – more than you’ve ever seen before. Bring a sketch pad and a good pair of boots; a sense of wonder will be supplied.

” TESTIMONIALS “
”We have been on several Walking The World trips, but the Camino was extra special. Terrain ranged from semi-arid to coastal green with many beautiful historic villages along the way. Accommodations were first rate and the wine and good food were amazing. This was our fourth trip, and we are so looking forward to the next one.

”My Corsica trip with Walking The World was nothing short of spectacular! The itinerary and local guides were fantastic and the accommodations were beyond wonderful. Every Walking The World tour I’ve been on has been enlightening and fun and has motivated me to maintain my fitness so I can continue to explore the world.

”Loved my trip to Costa Rica - an absolutely amazing experience. A wide variety of activities on the ground, on the water and in the air. The food was great, and Juan, our driver and local guide, had just the right amount of warmth, humor and knowledge. I would easily recommend this trip to anyone considering it, it turly was an amazing experience.
