You’re in Las Vegas and while you’re in our wonderful city
you want to see the Grand Canyon – of course! BUT, you don’t want to just see
some dirt cliff peeping out behind some trees, you want the best views of the Grand Canyon – that only
makes sense ;) Experience the Grand Canyon
like it’s your ONLY chance to see it… you only regret the things you didn’t do!
Let’s break it on down – North Rim? South Rim? West Rim? That is the question!

The North Rim is the place to go for isolation and solitude.
This rim is generally closed most of the winter due to its elevation and hence,
adverse weather conditions. It’s a good idea to check out the weather before
you go. There are not many amenities on the North Rim so I wouldn’t recommend
this for people that like the luxuries of restaurants and restrooms. I would
recommend for you to experience the Grand
Canyon from the North Rim if you have seen the other rims of the Grand
Canyon – or perhaps if you're someone that just wants to go meditate in the silence.
Grand Canyon National Park is just a stone throw away from Las Vegas, in the
neighboring state of Arizona. Mather Point at the South Rim (my favorite rim) proves
to have the best views of the Grand Canyon.
The South Rim has many amenities and miles of walking paths (you can even take
a guided tour to the bottom). You can see the tree covered Grand Canyon from
many angles from this rim. If you leave Las Vegas and head there via airplane, The
South Rim Explorer will get you there in 45 minutes (it takes a little over
4 hours to drive), provide a gourmet box lunch (isn’t that kinda contradictory?
Lol), allow you to take in all the views, and take a short hike if so desired.
If you’ve stopped in the Phoenix area, on your way to see us in Vegas, it would
be a great time to do the Grand
Canyon Day Ground Tour. On the Day Ground Tour you will take the famous Route 66,
spying a few sites along the way, and spending THREE HOURS in Grand Canyon
National Park. There’s no way to describe the overpowering wonder of the world
without diminishing its size, so bring your camera and take plenty of pictures!
Plan a memory with a sightseeing tour
