For most visitors, there are two places to choose where to park when it comes to experience Grand Canyon National: The south and west rims. Picking which to explore, is a simple exercise on two criteria: 1) the time and 2) the budget.
BACKGROUND
The Grand Canyon is massive. It includes more than 1.2 million acres (1904 square miles). The long, is 277 miles long, from Lee's Ferry to the east and endsGrand Wash Cliffs to the west. Sitting smack dab in the middle of the Kaibab National Forest, which hosts the largest forest of Ponderosa pine in the U.S. The Canyon 's the most points for the tour are available, south, west, north and rims. Most travelers begin day trips to Las Vegas Canyon. It is a trip to North Rim of the question because of its remoteness ago. Therefore, the options are looking south and west.
SOUTHRIM
This is the most famous asshole of the canyon. It is also the most accessible and offers many amenities. If your looking for incredible photo opportunities, this is it. Expect to spend a whole day on this tour. Total time of return is 15 hours, including hotel pickup and drop-offs. Prices range from $ 80 to $ 180 plus. This price difference is because, as "inclusive", the package is:
And you eat?
He charges admission to the park?
If the bus stopother sites?
How long you get to spend in the park?
It is the Hotel pickup and drop-offs?
My recommendation is to read the fine print. And 'At this point, it is necessary to decide whether your trip is an update to helicopter flights, horseback or even by flying. No matter what you decide, you know: The South Rim is one of the best attractions in Las Vegas "values.
Travel by bus standard for the Canyon to Las Vegas and begin his journey eastward Wend. Isuggest you take a window seat: En route, you will see Lake Mead, the largest artificial lake in the country, Hoover Dam, built in the Mojave Desert, and the only prairie of Northern Arizona. Key Cities Boulder City, NV Kingman, AZ, and Williams, AZ, entrance to the park depending on the operator, are between 2-3 hours before the South Rim are to be explored. The return trip to Las Vegas about five hours (including rest stops). Expect to return to the hotel room about 9pm
West Rim
In a bit of time? Select the West Rim. This circle is only 140 miles east of Las Vegas. Bus travel time is 2.5 hours one way. travel time, hotel pickup is sold with X. Costs vary from X to X. Upgrades are numerous and include the Grand Canyon Skywalk, horseback riding, Hummer tours, ATV tours, rafting and kayaking.
West Rim bus tours depart every day in Las Vegas. Sites you'll see along the road areBoulder City, NV, and Lake Mead, Hoover Dam. Most excursions are also stops at the dam. Before purchasing your tour bus, read the fine print. And 'even better add-ons to buy now because prices are cheaper in advance of the day of travel.
The circle is the Hualapai Indian territory. Objectively, we see just outside the boundaries of national park, and that of travel, like the Grand Canyon West. The Tribe operates the Grand Canyon Skywalk - a glass bridge, which slopesfrom the edge of the Colorado River 4,000 feet below. I recommend visiting the bridge are currently no cameras are allowed. It 'also here that you can land a helicopter on the bottom (this experience is not available on the South Rim).
CONCLUSION
If you're short on time and are considering the purchase of a Grand Canyon bus trip, book a trip to the West Rim. If you want to save a day and a true, authentic CanyonExperience, an RSVP South Rim tours. From a budgetary perspective rims offer incredible value is, but the South Rim Bus package is the best of them. However, you can not go wrong while traveling or another. The Grand Canyon is one of the Seven Wonders of the World. It 'a national treasure that is seen to be believed. If you can visit Las Vegas, go for it. There worth it.
