Looking for travel companions for the American West between June and September

Alga17 · 2026-04-10

Hello,

Exploring the American West with others is more fun, and since I’ve already had a great experience traveling with companions, I’m doing it again.

The initial plan is to arrive in San Francisco, then head to Yosemite >> Death Valley >> Las Vegas >> Zion >> Bryce Canyon >> Moab >> Mesa Verde >> Monument Valley >> Page >> Grand Canyon and finish in Los Angeles (of course, this can be done in reverse depending on international flights).

Renting a car, keeping it cool and in good spirits. For accommodations, we’re open to youth hostels, motels, hotels, etc. (no preference).

A 3-week (or 4-week) road trip, doable between June 23 and September 22.

But everything can change based on everyone’s ideas and desires—as long as flights aren’t booked yet...

Have a great day, and looking forward to chatting about this destination!

Hi Benoît, could you tell us a bit more about your plans, what you're looking for, and your expectations? (Are you after adventure or planning everything in advance, the balance between cultural visits and activities, etc.) If you'd like, we can discuss it in person since I also live near LR. From experience, I prefer traveling with people in my age group. See you soon, Pascale

Hi, From what I’ve read here and there about accommodation, it’s better to plan ahead, but the goal is to do and see as much as possible :). I haven’t looked into activities in that part of the U.S. yet, but generally, I like doing the typical things each country has to offer. The itinerary I’ve put together isn’t final, so it’ll change based on everyone’s ideas. No problem discussing it in person. Benoit

This is a travel style that suits me. You seem curious and pretty adventurous. Your post comes a bit late to plan time off. If 3 weeks, ideally spanning September, works for you, don’t hesitate!

Hi there, I haven’t set exact dates yet, except that I can’t leave before June 22nd and I need to be back in France by September 23rd. What would be approximate dates for you? Have a great day
