Pro tips to help you make a pick

Choose the canyon section that best suits your interests: the South Rim for iconic views, the North Rim for a quieter, more secluded experience, or the West Rim for unique activities like the Skywalk.

Plan your visit based on the adventure you’re seeking as well—whether it’s a helicopter tour, a rafting trip, a hummer ride, or another exciting activity, each area of the Grand Canyon offers something unique!

Before booking, check the physical requirements of your chosen tour. Helicopter and bus tours are great for all ages, while hiking and rafting require higher fitness levels. If accessibility and convenience are priorities, consider visiting the South Rim, which is more user-friendly.

For a hassle-free experience and great value, choose bus tours that often include meals, transportation, and stops at additional attractions like the Hoover Dam.

The entrance fees are $45 for the West Rim and $35 for Grand Canyon National Park. Most of the tours include the entry fee, but be sure to check the specific inclusions of each ticket.

Did you know?

The Grand Canyon is home to nearly 2,000 plant species, many found nowhere else on Earth.

The canyon is home to over 1,000 caves, but only about 335 have been explored and just one cave is open to the public for visits.

The Great Unconformity is a geological phenomenon at the canyon where 250-million-year-old rock layers sit atop 1.2-billion-year-old rocks, resulting in a gap of nearly 950 million years of missing geological history.

Within the canyon lies Supai Village, the most remote community in the continental United States, with a population of around 208 residents and accessible only by foot, helicopter, or mule.

Why visit Grand Canyon?

Mesmerizing views

Enjoy panoramic views of the Grand Canyon's vast landscapes from spots like Mather Point, the Skywalk, and Desert View. Marvel at the 277 miles of dramatic geological formations that have been sculpted over millions of years by the Colorado River.

Diverse outdoor activities

From helicopter tours to white-water rafting on the Colorado River, the park offers adventures for every type of traveler. While you’re there, don’t miss out on the hiking trails that cater to different fitness levels including the popular Rim Trail and Bright Angel Trail.

Year-round access

Whether you visit during summer or winter, the Grand Canyon is accessible throughout the year offering unforgettable experiences. Each season offers a unique view of the canyon — from snow-dusted landscapes in winter to wildflowers in spring.

Cultural and historical experience

The Grand Canyon has deep cultural roots, with Native American tribes including the Havasupai, Hualapai, and Ancestral Puebloans having lived in the area for thousands of years. You can explore ancient ruins and learn about the traditions of these tribes through cultural programs.

Geological wonder

Made up of layers of rock that span nearly 2 billion years, the Grand Canyon is a natural marvel that shows the Earth's evolutionary history. The exposed rock strata, such as the Vishnu Schist at the canyon's base, are among the oldest visible formations on the planet.

Highlights

South Rim

The South Rim is the most popular amongst the canyon’s section. It is also the most accessible and open year-round. Here are some highlights:

Mather Point: A famous viewpoint offering vistas of Granite Gorge and Bright Angel Canyon.

Bright Angel Trail: A popular hiking route, this trail descends from the South Rim to the Colorado River.

Grand Canyon Village: Home to historic lodges, museums and visitor centers.

Desert View Watchtower: A stone tower designed by Mary Colter, offering panoramic views of the canyon and Colorado River.

Yaki Point: Accessible only via the Kaibab Rim Route shuttle bus or by foot, this view point overlooks both the eastern and western canyon.

West Rim

The West Rim is operated by the Hualapai Tribe and is closer to Las Vegas. Perfect for day trips or adventure activities. Here are some must-see features:

Grand Canyon Skywalk: This horseshoe-shaped cantilever bridge extends 70 feet over the canyon's edge. It offers a unique experience of walking 4,000 feet above the canyon floor.

Eagle Point: Here, you can enjoy sights of the canyon and the Colorado River, highlighted by the striking eagle-shaped rock formation that gives the point its name.

Hualapai Ranch: Experience Native American culture with traditional dances, crafts, and storytelling.

Guano Point: Known for its dramatic 360-degree views of the canyon and Colorado River.

North Rim

The North Rim is a quieter and more secluded experience, with lush forests and unique viewpoints. It is open seasonally from mid-May to mid-October. Here’s what you can find at the North Rim:

Bright Angel Point: A scenic overlook with views of the canyon and the Roaring Springs. It is accessible via a short, scenic hike that begins near Grand Canyon Lodge.

Cape Royal: This is the southernmost viewpoint on the North Rim and offers one of the widest panoramas of the canyon.

Point Imperial: The highest viewpoint in the park, showcasing dramatic rock formations and the Painted Desert.

Roaring Springs: Accessible via the North Kaibab Trail, this natural spring feeds the park's water supply.

East Rim

Less developed than the other sections of the canyon, the East Rim serves as a gateway to other nearby attractions, such as Horseshoe Bend and Antelope Canyon. Here are some of its highlights:

Desert View Drive: A scenic route from Grand Canyon Village to the Desert View Watchtower that offers numerous viewpoints and attractions without the need for extensive hiking.

Little Colorado River Gorge: A smaller but striking canyon leading to the Grand Canyon, with viewpoints and picnic areas.

Overall experience was fantastic. Shuttle bus to and from the airfield made it easy. Snacks and champagne at the landing site were a nice addition to the tour. Most importantly our pilot, Doug was great. Very knowledgeable and descriptive, also very helpful and friendly and for me was the playlist. Not sure if it was his personal choice of tracks , or is it company's standard playlist for all the planes, but it did the job and worked perfectly with each stage of the flight
