Lake Powell & Canyonlands Combo Tour

With Lake Powell an almost 350-mile drive from Moab, it’s not a realistic day trip to consider. Lake Powell has more shoreline than the combined states on the Pacific Coast, so even if you make it by car, you can only explore a tiny percentage of this enormous lake. But when you take flight to the skies, you can see several must-see scenes on Lake Powell on a single three-hour tour!

With almost 2,000 miles of shoreline, a flight tour is the only way to gain a complete overview of the arches, caves and buttes hiding in the vast landscape of this gigantic lake.

Your pilot will glide over the lake’s shoreline and canyon for stunning perspectives of Wahweap Marina and its hundreds of houseboats, the towering Castle Rock reflected on the water, and the unique rock formations busting from the lake’s surface at Alstrom Point. At moments you’ll wonder if you’re still on planet Earth as you capture photos of the striped domes, canyon walls and sloping islands that create a striking contrast against the deep blue lake.

Enjoy some of Southeastern Utah’s hidden gems that most Moab visitors will never witness on your trip to and from Lake Powell. Capture a bird’s eye view of the Cataract Canyon rapids in West Canyonlands, glide over Tower Butte reflecting off of Lake Powell, learn about the sheer strength of Glen Canyon Dam, and gain a rarely-seen complete perspective of the remarkable Horseshoe Bend.

You’ll also get an intimate aerial view of the rarely-seen Rainbow Bridge National Monument. This stunning arch is increasingly challenging to reach due to the hike’s difficulty and the unpredictable lake conditions. A flight tour is the only dependable way to see this stunning arch in a single day.

Our expert airplane pilots will narrate your trip over Canyonlands National Park, Lake Powell and every notable area in between to ensure you understand the significance, stories and marvels of everything you see, many you may have missed if you stayed on the ground. While you make your way to the lake’s deep blue waters, our team will identify different hard-to-reach rock features and interesting geological phenomena and explain how Lake Powell developed over millions of years.
