If there are eight or more in your group, or you are willing to pay for eight people, we may be able to start a tour for you on a date that the tour does not regularly run. This tour will last about 18.25 hours. We depart Las Vegas at about 5.45 a.m. and will return at about midnight. Because of the vast distances, times are not guaranteed, and we are in no way responsible for the consequences of delays. All times are approximate and this itinerary may change without notice.
