Pickup and meeting point

- Pickup message: Your dated hotel instructions arrive within 2 days of travel. Arrive 10 minutes before that Las Vegas boarding appointment, which can precede the tour start.
- What to wear: Comfortable walking shoes are needed for the uneven ground. Upper doesn't allow walking aids, so every traveler needs to manage the walk without them.

Before you book
- Upper still needs unassisted walking. You must manage uneven ground and changes in slope without a cane or walker.

One complimentary bottle of water is included. Bring more for the outdoor walking. Comfortable walking shoes are required, and the trip isn't recommended for pregnant travelers.
You can take photos throughout the walk. Video and tripods aren't allowed inside Upper. Bags stay on the bus, so your vehicle luggage allowance doesn't carry through to the canyon.
Hotel instructions arrive within 2 days of travel. Your arrival needs to be 10 minutes before the assigned pickup. An early collection doesn't shorten the day or guarantee your return time.
A modified route refunds only missed paid admissions after any processing fee. Low participation can also cancel your departure. In that case, a replacement trip or full refund may be offered.
Your reservation is limited to 9 travelers, with a mobile voucher for boarding. The shared group can be larger. Free cancellation ends 24 hours before departure.
