Win a $1,750 Vegas & Grand Canyon Getaway!

las vegas getaway sweepstakes
College Magazine   February 22, 2017  (Updated: February 13, 2018)

Feeling lucky? Enter to win a once in a lifetime adventure to Vegas and the Grand Canyon. We’ve teamed up with StudentUniverse and TrekAmerica to offer one lucky adventurer the most Insta-worthy trip of the season.

You’ll tour Las Vegas to the Grand Canyon and camp along the way. Imagine four jam-packed days exploring incredible sights and making new friends.

The first step to an incredible getaway is reaching your destination in style. Need that extra night in Vegas? Thought so. That’s why our sweepstakes winner will receive $1,000 toward flights and hotels from StudentUniverse, a discount booking engine for flights, hotels and tours just for students. StudentUniverse negotiates with 75+ airlines, hotels and tour providers to get exclusive pricing for young people. Where else can you save on travel just by being a student?

The second step to a successful getaway is an agenda with enough adventures to cure any stress from this semester. TrekAmerica will reserve our winner a spot on their four-day Las Vegas to Grand Canyon Mini tour. The tour includes meals and an action-packed camping experience. TrekAmerica started in 1972 with the intention of exploring “the real America,” touring everything from busy city streets to remote mountaintops, and having a blast with new friends along the way.

Your Las Vegas to Grand Canyon Mini tour takes off in the City of Lights, carrying you out of the Strip and into the great southwest wilderness of Nevada, Utah and Arizona—our nation’s most prized scenery.

On day one, you’ll venture through Zion National Park and its lush Emerald Pools. Waterfalls too! From there you’ll set up camp in the awe-inspiring Bryce Canyon National Park.

Wake up to views of thousands of red spires known as hoodoos and spend an afternoon soaking in the colors of the canyon. Then jump on a 4×4 ride through Utah’s scenic Monument Valley. Let the adrenaline rush wash over. From there you’ll get to spend the night in a Navajo mud hut.

On the third day, you’ll pass through the Painted Desert and right up to the trails of the Grand Canyon. Prepare for epic sights. You’ll even catch views from the Bright Angel Trail (only 5% of visitors ever get to see this) and experience the Canyon at sunset.

See the Painted Desert and Grand Canyon all in the same day!

Just when it feels like you’ve seen it all, the final day of the tour takes you down the historic U.S. Route 66 to Seligman, Arizona. It will remind you of Cars and the town Radiator Springs.

The Cars movies were loosely based on Seligman, Arizona.

Back in Sin City, you’ll have a new love for the Southwest—not to mention your photo album will be maxed out with Instagram gold. Time to cruise the strip and explore the 24/7 party town before heading back to campus.

The only question now is, “What are you waiting for?” Sign up for the sweepstakes and enter to win!
