My husband Frank and I, along with our children Emma, Elliot, and Lola created this itinerary for a family vacation. Our goal was to discover different parts of the American West (National Parks, cities, locals). We decided to do this by traveling through several iconic destinations: San Francisco, Death Valley, Monument Valley, the Grand Canyon, Las Vegas, and California. We rented a car and chose a variety of accommodations. We rented a houseboat and stayed in different motels, bungalows, hotels, and even spent a night in a Hogan. It was trip full of different experiences, places and activities. We drove a lot to visit a maximum of must see places. Each day was unique! Our budget for the whole trip was around $ 2360 per person for 20 nights (excluded food and activities).
