This is the big, first stop to see the canyon once you get in the park from the South entrance. This is where the visitor's center is, and it is also where all the cars start parking for the shuttle… BrandonK850的完整评论

Great viewing point of the Grand Canyon. Parked very close both early morning and sunset. Only 5 min walk. Note this was December though. Sunset does not fall behind the canyon but it was still great. debbiel512的完整评论

We will be in Las Vegas for an Archery Tournament next month. We wanted to take a ride and see the Grand Canyon. We were looking for something a little closer than the South Rim area/Park Headquarters, a 4 hour drive in a packed car is not fun for any of us. We wanted to get a little closer, perhaps the West Rim, but did not want to go to the Skywalk. Is there any place that is worth seeing, or should we just bite the bullet and drive to the South Rim? Any assistance/guidance is greatly appreciated. Thank You

Suzi, that all depends on what you want out of your experience. My parents would drive by the sign to say they had been to a place but never truly experienced it, and there are a small handful of vistas to help you see the breadth of the Grand Canyon to do just that. I would recommend that you leave early in the day and visit as many areas as you can and take in each of the pulloffs on the way since you live in Florida and may not experience it again. fyi the Skywalk is rather pricy, and there are short and long trails to hike on, so come prepared to your liking. There are several attractions with visitor centers and dining as well. I came from the North and. around from the East side so there may be other options from the Vegas Side. Do bring plenty of water and batteries for your camera as well. hope this helps.
My family and have never been to the Grand Canyon and have to drive through this area because we're relocating for work but wanted to make a day stop. Any recommendations where we can go to see the Grand Canyon and take pictures and such without having to buy a tour?

Thank you csarchibald! The details are fantastic! Happy Travels!
Perhaps a very naive question, but is it doable to camp in a tent mid november (2016) in the Grand Canyon - Mather campground?

Winter is my favorite time to camp. NO Bugs, snakes, less crowds, less bears etc. I bought a great 0 Deg. Colman Sleeping bag at Walmart while in AZ, I've used it into the 20's and have always been comfortable. Use a good ground pad. The cold ground will pull heat from you. Your tent should be able to handle wind and possible snow. I've had tents get mostly buried in snow and it's very cozy. Snow is an insulator and blocks the wind. Most cheap tents are made for summer camping, if that's all you've got cover it in a light weight tarp and stake that down well. Will block wind, protect from snow and add a bit of insulation. There will be air trapped between the tent and the tarp. Have good warm cloths for when you are not in your sleeping bag. If you're married get sleeping bags that zip together,(share body heat). A very old trick is to make a "mattress" out of pine needles. The last time I did this, I made a pile of long pine needles about the size of a single mattress and wrapped it in a cheap space blanket. Put my bag on top and got a great night sleep. You can spread a few inches deep of needles and put your tent on it. This can help with rocky ground or if there tree roots everywhere. Eat hot food and drink hot beverages. The more fat the better, it helps you produce body heat(camping is not dieting time). Go light on the alcohol, it sends the blood to your skin which can make you loose body heat. You also want your wits about when winter camping. I believe most of the Grand canyon south rim campgrounds are open year round and if you just can't get warm enough you can probably get a good deal on a hotel room, as it's not peak season. Have fun.
please suggest a nice company for a day tour from las vegas

Hello Vimmy, The drive from Las Vegas to the Canyon will be 4 to 5 hours depending on whether you would like to stop and take in some of the other sites along the way, if so this will be at least a two day excursion ( my recommendation). I would suggest leasing a suburban, packing up with snacks and drinks and enjoying the experience. I feel that you would short change yourself trying to make it all in one day. Enjoy your visit to the US. There are several sites to enjoy along the way, that way it breaks up the 5 hour road trip and makes it a discovery tour. You have the Hoover Dam which is breath taking in itself, Lake Mead which is near Boulder City, not far out of Vegas , then, on to the Grand Canyon. I would recommend a full day of exploring the Grand Canyon, to get the full effect of the magnitude and majesty that is a marvel here on earth, walk the Rim Trail and hike down into the Canyon if time permits and you have proper attire shoes and physically prepared. I would recommend making reservations in Flagstaff, AZ which is about an hours drive and ample selection of hotels to relax and recover. Happy travels and hiking!
