About this experience
See the best of Death Valley National Park in a single day from Las Vegas — no long solo drive, no navigation to figure out. Travel by air-conditioned vehicle with a knowledgeable driver-guide to the park's greatest hits: the surreal salt flats of Badwater Basin (the lowest point in North America), the golden badlands of Zabriskie Point, and the vivid mineral hills of Artists Palette. Enjoy the comfort of a small group, with lunch and unlimited bottled water included — you just show up and take it all in.

Itinerary and highlights
The Mojave Desert is the smallest of the four major deserts in North America, covering parts of California, Nevada, Utah, and Arizona. It's known for being the most arid in the region, with little rain in the summer, and average high temperatures of over 100 °F (38 °C) in the summer. The desert also has the lowest point in the United States, Badwater Basin in Death Valley, which is 282 feet below sea level, while the Panamint Mountains rise to over 11,000 feet above sea level.
Pahrump is a town in Nevada named after the indigenous name * Pah-Rimpi*, which means "Water Rock". The name refers to the many artesian wells in the valley. Pahrump is located in the Mojave Desert valley, west of Las Vegas, and is the population center of Nye County.
