One of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World, and the only natural wonder in the United States, the Grand Canyon can be experienced at four general destinations: the South Rim, Grand Canyon West, Grand Canyon East, and the North Rim. Considered by many to be the “true Grand Canyon,” Grand Canyon National Park’s South Rim features the most accessible, deepest and widest views. We’ll arrive at the South Rim in time for lunch, on self, with several dining options to choose from—ranging from fine dining at the El Tovar, to the Maswik Food Court. After lunch we’ll explore spectacular views and important points of interest. We’ll be leaving a little earlier and arriving home a little later. Make a reservation and join us on this remarkable tour!
