ABOUT UTAH
Settled right next to Colorado, I have had the opportunity to visit Utah several times, even if it was mostly just to drive through the state! My partner, Colin, and I spent about a week exploring Arches National Park in Utah which we absolutely loved! With an alien landscape, Utah’s deserts and rock formations make you feel like you’re on another planet. Arches National Park is an absolute must for travelers looking to get off the beaten path and explore all of the diversity of natural beauty America has to offer. There are countless natural wonders hosted in this state, and even though it's often dismissed, Utah is a great state to visit, and I would highly recommend it!

Travel Tips - Utah
Lodging
Your accommodation options can vary greatly depending on where you stay in Utah. Some great booking platform options I would recommend looking into are Airbnb, Expedia, and VRBO for booking your lodging.
Transportation
Similar to factors for accommodation, where you are wanting to travel within a state will vary greatly depending on whether it is more rural or urban. Keep in mind, the United States is incredibly large! Our public transportation here in America is nowhere near up to the standards of Europe – we have limited trains, metros, and it is almost impossible to walk anywhere. There is a reason there are countless memes about Europeans determined to walk here in the U.S. walking underneath interstates and alongside highways. I would STRONGLY urge you against this. Some suggestions I have would be to book a rental car with Hertz or Enterprise. Google Maps is a great navigating tool for your trip to the United States.
