One of the most popular stops on any Bryce Canyon scenic tour, Thor’s Hammer is located on the southern part of the Amphitheater bowl, right by Sunrise Point. Named for the thunderstorms that frequently hit the area, the Hammer is the park’s most famous example of a “hoodoo,” towering natural rock formations that cover the […]
It’s nearly impossible to settle on a single view that acts as the highlight of a Bryce Canyon scenic tour since there are so many striking vistas. However, if we had to pick one, we’d probably go with Bryce Point, located on the Amphitheater just a few miles past the visitor center. Bryce Point looks […]
It depends on how much of the park you want to see, but a basic Bryce Canyon tour should take you about three hours. That being said, you could easily spend the entire day checking out all the viewpoints and trailheads in the park, so be sure to leave some time to explore. Once you’ve […]
If you’re bringing your car on a Bryce Canyon tour, you’ll have to pay a $35 entrance fee to get into the park itself. That fee covers the car and all occupants inside, so as long as you can all cram yourselves into one vehicle, you can get the whole family into the park for […]

While Bryce Canyon doesn’t offer ranger-guided tours, there are plenty of private companies that will show you the ins and outs of the national park. You’ll have to do a little shopping and compare prices to figure out which Bryce Canyon tour is best for you. Many of these are bus tours, so you won’t […]
If you want to hit all 13 viewpoints, a full Bryce Canyon tour should take you about three hours. However, you could easily spend all day exploring the hiking trails and other side attractions in the national park. We always recommend taking your time when visiting a national park, since the best places to see […]
