Everyone in the boat shook his or her head no.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s almost impossible to plan a trip to the Grand Canyon or Zion National Park without passing through Page, which is almost exactly halfway between the two on Highway 89. Given that Page appears to have more hotels than the two parks put together, people seem to be stopping and staying awhile.<\/p>\n<p>So what exactly are they doing in and around this town of 7,000? A lot actually.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/2017\/02\/reasons-to-love-scottsdale-arizona\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>RELATED<\/strong>: 8 reasons to love Scottsdale, Arizona<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Raft the Colorado River\u2014gently<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/images2.newscred.com\/Zz1mNDAxNWY1MTAzMThlZGYwNTM1OTdhOTQ4NDgxNTEzNQ==\" alt=\"colorado rafting.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"514\" \/><br \/>\n<\/strong>We came to Page because we had read on the Grand Canyon\u00a0website that local company <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.raftthecanyon.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Colorado River Discovery<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0offers half-day and one-day rafting trips down the Colorado River. If you don\u2019t have the time to do a full-week of rafting (or didn\u2019t book in time) or aren\u2019t ready to brave the rapids in the Canyon proper, this is an opportunity to get a taste of what it\u2019s like to be down on the River with canyon walls above. These trips end at the landing where the trips into the Canyon begin and traverse part of the River that John Wesley Powell travelled on his famous attempt to navigate the Colorado.<\/p>\n<p>The motorized rafts leave from just below the Lake Powell electrical damn, which regulates the level of the River somewhat. You\u2019ll never have rapids on this stretch and real adventurers might find it a bit tame. But for families or adults looking for an easy break from days of hiking, it\u2019s a chance to raft, swim in summer, see Native American petroglyphs on the Canyon walls and take great photos.<\/p>\n<p>Your rafting fee includes a sizable lunch and cold lemonade. Bring plenty of sunscreen, a hat and water bottle you can refill on the rafts. Layers are a good idea, too. Several kids on our raft wore swim bottoms and rash guards so they were ready to get wet when the boat pulled over for a break.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Explore a slot canyon<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/images3.newscred.com\/Zz04YjgyMjI0YTZmNTRiZGM0N2M4YmY3NjYyMmZiZTQ4Mg==\" alt=\"iStock-470162166.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"532\" \/><br \/>\n<\/strong>Slot canyons are formed when wind and floods wear through sandstone until narrow and winding passageways form. The canyons are often open at the top, allowing light to filter in. The smoothed rocks have distinct waves of color and interesting curves and shapes. They\u2019re unique, tailor made for photographing and worth checking out.<\/p>\n<p>There are a few slot canyons around Page. Some take some scrambling to get to. One of the most accessible is Antelope Slot Canyon, which sits on Navajo land and can only be visited with one of several Navajo tour companies in town. We toured Antelope in the late afternoon, but I read that the light for photographs is best in the morning, which is when they book special photography tours. The companies stagger their groups so no two are heading into the Canyon at the same time. But over spring break there was a steady stream of people gong through.\u00a0 The tour companies drive you out to the Canyon in rugged trucks with bench seats in the back (it\u2019s windy) and a guide leads you through the cave. Some guides talk more about the geology and history of the place, Ours, with <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.antelopecanyon.com\">Antelope Canyon Tours<\/a><\/strong>, spent a lot of time helping people take cool photographs of the formations. As is often the case with tour guides, who you get is luck of the draw.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Catch the Wave<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/images3.newscred.com\/Zz05YWNjYWNhNGU3ZDY5ZGVmNWE4NWU5NmIwODJlNzk0Mg==\" alt=\"wave.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" \/><br \/>\n<\/strong>If you want to see some of this worn sandstone, but the idea of a narrow slot canyon makes you uneasy, try visiting the Wave, an open-air sandstone formation about ten miles outside of Page in the Coyote Buttes area of Paria Canyon-Vermilion Cliffs Wilderness area. You need a Bureau of Land Management <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blm.gov\/az\/paria\/lotteryapply.cfm?areaid=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">permit<\/a> to visit the area and getting one is tricky, but if you can manage it, you\u2019ll see some very unique scenery.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/orbitz.com\/rewards\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>ALSO<\/strong>: Get more out of your next Southwest adventure by joining Orbitz Rewards!<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Visit Horseshoe Bend<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/images4.newscred.com\/Zz0wMjI5YWM4MDY5MDQ2OTk5NjJlMTJiNjliZGUzZjFhNw==\" alt=\"iStock-636213158.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"531\" \/><br \/>\nOn your way to or from the Grand Canyon you\u2019ll pass a parking lot full of cars and tour buses just outside of town. Pull in alongside them and walk the flat, sunny mile to the cliffs overlooking Horseshoe Bend (if you went rafting you rode around this bend). There\u2019s not much to do other than take a few photographs, but it\u2019s quite scenic and worth the 30-minutes or so you\u2019ll spend there.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Enjoy Glen Canyon<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/glca\/index.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Glen Canyon<\/a><\/strong> is a protected area that spills across southern Utah and into northern Arizona. It includes Lake Powell, the Escalante River, Grand Escalante Staircase and Rainbow Bridge National Monuments and much more. You can rent a house boat, swim or go motor boating on the lake and canoe, kayak, hike and camp in other parts of the park.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/images4.newscred.com\/Zz0zMTEyMzEwYWQzM2I2MWIyNzhlOWExZTkzNjBlZDI5Yg==\" alt=\"iStock-177767147.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"313\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Lake Powell is manmade and looks like the giant flooded canyon that it is. It\u2019s unique, scenic and worth checking out. If you want to explore this giant park in depth, and particularly if you want to make your way to the impressive national monuments, give yourself three or four days in the area.<\/p>\n<p>The park is managed in part by the National Park Service, the Bureau of Land Management and other agencies, so information about its various sites can be a bit patchwork. The local tourism agencies are sometimes the best places to start.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stay<br \/>\n<\/strong>Almost no hotel in Page costs more than $150 nightly and many charge less than $100. The hotels closer to the national parks cost twice as much or more, which makes Page an appealing base for day trips to the Grand Canyon, Zion and Bryce, each a bit more than two hours away.<\/p>\n<p>For a unique experience book a room at the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/Glen-Canyon-National-Recreation-Area-Hotels-Lake-Powell-Resort.h180810.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lake Powell Resort<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0in Glen Canyon National Recreation Area. It\u2019s a modern hotel with a nice pool and outdoor fire rings lit up in the evening, plus an upscale restaurant, casual bar and a new lakeside caf\u00e9.<\/p>\n<p>In town, you\u2019ll find your pick of chain hotels, many at the budget end of the spectrum. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/Glen-Canyon-National-Recreation-Area-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Suites-Page.h8114887.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Holiday Inn Express<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0has the freshly painted feel of a hotel that is either new or recently refurbished. The pool and hot tub are simple but well-kept, the front desk staff is friendly and there are free cookies and ice tea in the afternoon and a reasonably good breakfast buffet.<\/p>\n<p>The<a href=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/Glen-Canyon-National-Recreation-Area-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-At-Lake-Powell.h7186.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong> Best Western Plus at Lake Powell<\/strong><\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/Glen-Canyon-National-Recreation-Area-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Lake-Powell.h21475.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Courtyard by Marriott Lake Powell<\/strong><\/a> are also good bets.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Try something different<\/strong><br \/>\nIf you are looking for an evening activity, consider\u00a0<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/intothegrand.com\">Into the Grand<\/a><\/strong>, which offers a Navajo dinner and two hours of live Native American music and dancing.
