I would avoid any of the National parks in the area on that particular
long Labor Day weekend (Sept. 2-4) because that is one of the biggest
holiday periods in the US (like Venezia in August). These places will
be very crowded and the minimal lodging would be sold out far in
advance. But if you have no other choices, find lodging in other towns
(e.g. Flagstaff or Kanab -- but book in advance) then just do a day
tour of the parks.

You can go from Grand Canyon (either rim) to Page, then on to Monument
Valley in one day. It isn't far. The connector road to look for is
highway 98 between Page and highway 160 (midway between Kayenta and
Tuba City).

That would be OK -- the crowds will be lighter then.

Been there several times, but two years ago spent the summer in the
L'Aquila-Pescara areas and the Lakes District. We especially liked
Verona, but Venezia was as crowded as ever (but still a must-see).
Ciao!
