Sedona for the South rim of the grand Canyon.  Highways then go west
towards las Vegas and then northeast out of Las Vegas for a loop around the
Colorado River that will put you within spectacular red rock canyons including
both the north and south rim of the Grand Canyon.  

Valley of Fire State Park
North on Route 15, out of  Las Vegas, the Valley of Fire State Park near the
shores of  Lake Mead is a desiccated landscape of red rock and broiling sun.  
Snappy dry Mojave Desert air keeps it interesting but still Nevada’s oldest park
has few visitors touring its bubbles of red rock set against a cobalt blue sky and
its twisted arches of red sandstone that frame distant cliffs.
Most travelers speed through on their way to Utah's  Zion and Bryce canyons to
the north............Article

Rim of the Grand Canyon.

high Hoover Dam. On one side, Lake Mead and two
years worth of Colorado River water bordered by 550
miles of shoreline, below, a concrete base 660 feet thick
that took 4.5 million Cubic Yards of concrete to build, and
on the other side, Colorado River water headed for the
