About this experience
This unique park is a land of extremes that will surprise and delight you. Colorful mountains frame the valley which is the second lowest point on Earth, second only to the Dead Sea. The valley floor is 282 feet (86m) below sea level. It is the driest, lowest and hottest National Park. In fact, it is the hottest place on our planet in the summer. Our tours travel to Death Valley National Park in the Fall, Winter and Spring. The valley offers features like nowhere else, including Devil’s Golf Course, Artists Drive, Zabriskie Point, and Badwater Basin. Enjoy colorfully layered mountains, sand dunes, salt flats and other unusual features. Stop at the Visitor Center and Museum to learn more about the topography, history and wildlife of Death Valley. Also enjoy a visit to Rhyolite Ghost Town for some fascinating photos of stone buildings, railroad depot and even some local ghosts.
