Depending on which NAU program(s) you choose, you may find yourself in an authentic turn-of-the century trading post, walking along the south rim of the Grand Canyon, or enjoying the spectacular view of Lake Powell and Rainbow Bridge by boat. Relive a page of history as you travel aboard a restored train to the Grand Canyon or relax in view of awesome Monument Valley while listening to a Navajo explain the origins of their sacred medicine.
