Bryce and Zion Canyons

We are considering going to southern Utah and have a question about Bryce and Zion canyons. I have some disability that limits how much walking I can do. We are wondering how much scenery can we see in parks by driving or at least not walking far. We would not be able to due any hiking on the trails. We would have to drive about 8 hours from our primary destination to get to Bryce and want to make sure it is worth the trip.

Thanks

Some access is possible in Zion by wheelchair or walker, see :

Also both parks have horse/mule trails to see some areas of these parks:

Both have plenty of pull-outs, especially Bryce.
