Spirit of the Desert Sept 2025
The first change to our 8 day trip was the cancellation of the Red Cliffs lodge near Moab due to renovations. A Hilton in town replaced it for the 3 nites. Though not announced yet, the Grand Canyon Lodge has been destroyed or at least badly damaged by fires this week. In each case, these were "inside the Park" lodgings that are major factors in a tour like this. If you are signed up , would you look to make a change? Appreciate your thoughts.

If Tauck doesn’t cancel neither would I. They are quite adept at responding to calamities, although with zero containment this fire could devastate tourism in that area for quite some time. So tragic.
Ron, if you have insurance then you can cancel.

I saw this last night. The Lodge was totally destroyed and much of the surrounding area is currently closed. I have no plans to cancel. I was really looking forward to seeing the North Rim since I have already seen the South Rim but I will wait to see what Tauck is planning. I have no doubt they are working on this problem and will let us know as soon as possible what we will be doing. I wouldn’t cancel because I like all other plans and I am sure that I will be fine with whatever they come up with. The destruction is so unfortunate but lightning strikes are unpredictable.
I commend you on your positivity, Mr. Weinberg. I hope your trip comes to fruition and that you will post a critique afterwards. Best wishes.
