This Is Not a Tour. It's a Journey.
Have you ever dreamed of traveling with the authors and explorers who inspired you on screen?
This is your invitation.
For six days, you'll travel side by side with William Henry — visiting ancient ruins, sacred canyons, and sites that challenge everything we've been taught about human history.
This isn't a bus tour with a microphone. It's an intimate expedition — 28 travelers maximum, sharing meals, stories, and discoveries as we explore the mysteries of the American Southwest together.
Chaco Canyon & Mesa Verde
Two of the most significant ancient sites in North America — explored in depth, not rushed.
Petroglyphs, Pueblos & Cliff Dwellings
V-Bar-V rock art. Montezuma Castle. Walnut Canyon. Over 2,000 years of history carved into stone.
Legendary Storytelling in the Field
William doesn't lecture from a stage. He shares stories while standing in the places where history happened.
Real Conversations, Real Connection
Shared meals. Evening gatherings. The kind of deep conversations that only happen on the road.
"This is your chance to be more than an observer — to walk the land, ask questions, and take part in the unfolding discovery."
The Route
Six days through Arizona, Colorado, and New Mexico's most mysterious landscapes.
Day 1 — Wednesday, September 17
Sedona Arrival
Arrive in Sedona and settle into red rock country.
Join your fellow travelers and meet William Henry at the Welcome Meet & Greet — an evening of introductions, conversation, and anticipation for the journey ahead.
This is where the expedition begins. Not with a tour bus. With a gathering of seekers.
Highlights
- ●Arrival in Sedona
- ●Welcome Meet & Greet with William Henry
- ●Overnight in Sedona
Day 2 — Thursday, September 18
Petroglyphs, Pueblos & Sacred Sedona
Our first full day begins at V-Bar-V Heritage Site — home to over 1,000 petroglyphs, one of the largest and best-preserved rock art sites in the Verde Valley. What were they recording? Calendars? Star maps? Messages we've forgotten how to read?
Next, we visit Montezuma's Well — a limestone sinkhole fed by ancient springs, sacred to multiple tribes for centuries. Then on to Montezuma Castle — a stunning 5-story cliff dwelling built into the canyon wall 800 years ago.
After a picnic lunch in the field, the afternoon explores Sedona's sacred sites including Airport Mesa — known for its powerful vortex energy and panoramic views of the red rock landscape.
The day closes with an evening visit to a modern megalithic lodge — a private property built using ancient construction principles. A rare and unforgettable experience.
Highlights
- ●V-Bar-V Petroglyphs
- ●Montezuma's Well & Castle
- ●Sedona sacred sites & Airport Mesa
- ●Evening visit to modern megalithic lodge
Day 3 — Friday, September 19
Volcanoes, Ruins & the Journey North
Today we head north into volcanic landscapes and ancient pueblos.
First stop: Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument — a 1,000-year-old cinder cone surrounded by dramatic lava fields. The Sinagua people witnessed this eruption. How did it change their world?
Nearby, we explore Wupatki National Monument — a sprawling complex of red sandstone pueblos built in the shadow of the volcano. At its peak, over 100 people lived here. Why did they leave?
After a picnic lunch among the ruins, we continue north to the Cameron Trading Post — a historic stop on the edge of Navajo Nation, filled with authentic crafts, art, and Southwestern character.
Then we drive east into Colorado for our overnight in Cortez — gateway to Mesa Verde.
Highlights
- ●Sunset Crater & Lava Fields
- ●Wupatki Ruins
- ●Cameron Trading Post
- ●Overnight in Cortez, Colorado
Day 4 — Saturday, September 20
Mesa Verde & the Ancestral Puebloans
Today we enter Mesa Verde National Park — home to over 5,000 archaeological sites including 600 cliff dwellings, the most famous concentration of ancestral Puebloan ruins in the world.
We explore the mesa-top villages and descend into the cliff dwellings themselves — structures built into alcoves in the canyon walls, abandoned 700 years ago. The question that haunts every visitor: why did they leave?
After a picnic lunch in the park, the afternoon takes us to Salmon Ruins near Bloomfield, New Mexico — a Chacoan outlier great house with over 300 rooms, connected to the vast Chaco network by ancient roads.
Overnight in Farmington, New Mexico — positioned for tomorrow's journey into Chaco Canyon.
Highlights
- ●Mesa Verde National Park — cliff dwellings
- ●Salmon Ruins
- ●Overnight in Farmington, New Mexico
Day 5 — Sunday, September 21
Chaco Canyon — Full Day Immersion
The heart of the expedition.
Chaco Culture National Historical Park is one of the most significant archaeological sites in North America — and one of the most mysterious. Between 850 and 1250 AD, this remote canyon was the center of a vast civilization. Massive great houses. Perfect astronomical alignments. Roads stretching to the horizon. And then — abandonment.
We spend the full day exploring Chaco: Pueblo Bonito (the largest great house), Chetro Ketl (featuring a massive plaza and great kiva), and Casa Rinconada (an isolated great kiva aligned to the cardinal directions).
William shares research and theories that go far beyond the official interpretations. What was Chaco really for? Who built it? And what happened to them?
Highlights
- ●Chaco Canyon — full day exploration
- ●Pueblo Bonito, Chetro Ketl, Casa Rinconada
- ●Overnight in Gallup, New Mexico
Day 6 — Monday, September 22
Return to Sedona
Our final day begins with the journey back toward Sedona — but we're not done exploring.
We stop in Winslow for lunch at the legendary La Posada Inn — a restored Harvey House hotel built in 1930, filled with art, history, and Southwestern charm. One of the great historic hotels of the American West.
Next: Meteor Crater — the best-preserved impact crater on Earth. Nearly a mile wide and 550 feet deep, formed 50,000 years ago. A stark reminder of the cosmic forces that have shaped our planet.
We continue to Walnut Canyon National Monument — where 25 cliff dwelling rooms built into limestone alcoves tell the story of the Sinagua people 800 years ago.
The journey concludes with a Farewell Dinner at Mariposa in Sedona — celebrating the expedition and the connections formed along the way.

Your Guide
William Henry
William Henry is an investigative mythologist, author, and TV presenter who has spent over 30 years exploring the intersection of ancient wisdom, sacred art, and spiritual transformation.
He's the author of numerous books including The Secret of Sion, The Illuminator, and Lost Secrets of the Watchers. He's a long-time contributor to Gaia TV and Ancient Aliens, where he brings a unique lens to ancient mysteries — one focused not just on what our ancestors built, but on the spiritual technologies they used to transcend ordinary consciousness.
William's research explores ascension, stargate mythology, light body activation, and the sacred symbolism hidden in religious art and architecture around the world. He sees ancient sites not just as ruins, but as portals — places where the veil between worlds grows thin.
On this journey, William brings that visionary perspective to the American Southwest. You'll explore sacred canyons, ancient pueblos, and megalithic sites through the eyes of someone who sees beyond the stones to the spiritual realities they encode.
"The ancients didn't just build monuments. They built doorways — to higher consciousness, to other realms, to our true selves."
