AMERICA'S wild west has pulled on our imaginations ever since Hollywood made the cowboy a hero.
And "wild west" scenery has been the backdrop to some of the best action films ever made.
While the true wilderness is still there, western USA is so vast that meticulous planning is needed to make the most of a visit. Which is where Grand American Adventures comes in.
It has been providing small groups of travellers with unforgettable, off the beaten track and wilderness experiences for 30 years.
The company recently launched seven new In-Depth experiences for 2018 - a mix of adventures that promise to unearth western USA's natural wonders.
Each tour includes authentic, upscale accommodation, from ranches and national park lodges to yurts, wigwams and cabins.
