10. Traveling In Page
Yes, you could take a somewhat expensive day trip from Las Vegas or Flagstaff and spend a lot of time on a bus. If you don’t mind doing the driving yourself, you should consider driving. If you rent a car, be aware that the devil is in the details.
Sometimes you will find a rental company that has a superb price but has rental requirements that just won’t work for you. Some travel writers say that you get your best deal on a rental by searching online. After all, a low price is nothing if the rental terms aren’t reasonable.
11. Helpful Tips For Visiting Page
Plan in advance
Before you leave home be sure to finalize your plans. Places such as Antelope Canyon are popular so schedule your tours in advance. Do your homework in terms of parking permits, campsite reservations, and other accommodations.
Beware of the time
Time in Page can be tricky, especially during Daylight Savings Time. Page is situated in the Mountain Time Zone. Arizona, and thus Page, doesn’t observe Daylight Savings Time. The Navajo Nation, however, does observe Daylight Savings Time. Don’t get confused!
The heat
Page gets very little rain. Be prepared for the desert heat. Stay hydrated, dress appropriately, and wear sunscreen.
Spend the night
Veteran visitors suggest spending at least one night in Page. That way, you have more time to see all the highlights and some attractions not mentioned here to boot. Besides, how else can you truly appreciate the sunset without spending the night?
Stock up on supplies
If seeing Page is part of a larger road trip, check your supplies. After all, if you’re headed into Utah, it may be a while before you hit another town. Have a good trip!
