Packages and Tours

Eco Tour

Nature lovers can explore areas surrounding the unique ecosystem of the Great Salt Lake and/or the surrounding Wasatch Mountains. There are a number of bird viewing areas - and Antelope Island is said to have over 250 species of migratory birds in the spring and fall. Bald eagles are prevalent in the spring in the south county area, and easy to see. Davis County is a great place to "get back to nature".
Utah truly has the greatest snow on earth. And due to the elevation of the ski resorts, when the winter storms come, the snow doesn’t start to melt until mid-April. There's powder all year long. See our Ski Utah page for seasonal promotional pricing from our area's suppliers. Most hotels include resort tickets in their packages, at rates far lower than those at the ticket windows.

Flying High

F-16s from Hill AFB flying over the area to training grounds west of the Great Salt Lake are inspiring and common sights in Davis County. The base's museum and historic tour focuses on military and industrial interests. The museum is free to the public, and features an amazing "history of flight" from the first bi-wings, to modern fighter aircraft. The museum also honors the brave men and women who have served our country.  Whether you're a Vet, or a family with little kids in tow, there's dozens of aircraft to attract (and keep) your attention. The Hill Aerospace museum is an undiscovered highlight of the history of flight.

Family-oriented tour with activities including amusement parks and water activities. Click on our topic header for this paragraph, or see our page for ideas for fun things to do with your family while staying in Davis County.

It's true that compared to an east coast city like Boston, our history is less than 200 years old. Even so, it's pretty fascinating. There weren't many people familiar with the area who gave the pioneers much of a chance. This tour is a must for Western-history buffs. Take a guided tour or explore the history of Bountiful at your own pace.  Either way, you will want to start at the Bountiful Historical Museum, 845 South Main, Ste. B5, Bountiful, UT 84010.  For information call 801-296-2060 www.bountifulutah.gov/historicalcommission

National Park Tours

Make Davis County your starting or ending point for your National Park vacation.

Per square mile, no state has more National Parks than Utah (FYI: only California and Alaska have more National parks, and both states are a lot bigger geographically!). We are home to five amazing National Parks, and three more are within a half-day drive, including Yellowstone and Grand Teton Natl. Parks - which are about 5 hours to the north of us and Great Basin NP near the Utah border in Nevada. The Grand Canyon NP and Mesa Verde NP are also within a day's drive - and logical extensions to other Utah NP visits. We also have the most popular Utah state park (Antelope Island) right in our backyard. It's worth a trip on its own.

Close to the Salt Lake International airport, Davis County is the logical choice for an economical and comfortable place to stay while you start or end your National Park Tours. Call us for more information and we'd be happy to give you some ideas to get your trip started.
