Trip Insurance:
It is never a bad idea to buy trip insurance and sometimes, even travel health insurance. Insure My Trip is one website that has been written up in the New York Times, Washington Post, etc. and lists a number of reliable companies that deal with travel insurance along with price comparisons. When you shop, look carefully at the coverage offered to make sure it meets your needs. Insure My Trip, by the way, is a BBB Accredited business.

For reservations, call 1-435-259-8700. Breakfast is included in the room rate. We have a block of rooms, so book directly and ask for the Barefoot Contessa Photo Adventures block. Even so, we always recommend making reservations early (we made ours in December), as all accommodations in Moab fill up quickly. For those who miss out on our selection, check out other possibilities in the Moab area.

Even easier, call Moab/Canyonlands Central Reservations that has information on availability for hotels, motels, lodges, and rental condos. 1-800-748-4386. There are still a few hotel rooms left (a big cycling event in town over the weekend), as well as a larger choice of condo rentals, some of which are quite reasonably priced.

Airport:
The nearest major Airport is Salt Lake City, UT (SLC), a hint over four hours from our headquarters. Closer, however, is the regional Walker Field Airport (GJT) in Grand Junction, CO, less than two hours from Moab. For those who are considering flying into Denver (DEN), over four and a half hours distant, it is less than $100 more and a considerably shorter drive to Moab.

Rental Cars:
Because we stop in out-of-the-way locations where the roads may be narrow, we encourage car sharing. If you are interested in sharing a rental car with others, let us know. We'll pool those who respond and get you in touch with one another to make your own plans. We can't guarantee that there will be takers, so we also recommend that you rent a car, as you can always cancel later. That way, you won't find your car of choice no longer available.
