Grand Canyon Holidays & Tours

Grand Canyon Tours

No words can describe its majesty, so join one of our Grand Canyon tours to get up close and personal with a Natural Wonder of the World. Carved by the Colorado River over millions of years, its size is simply incomprehensible − a vast expanse stretching 277 miles and reaching depths of more than a mile. Its layers of rock also reveal a geological history that spans billions of years, making it a valuable site in Arizona, USA, for scientific study.

Our Grand Canyon trips at sunrise are extra special; as the sun appears over the mountains, its rays filter into the canyon, causing an explosion of colour and turning the rocks shades of red, orange and bronze. This is a phenomenal experience and, if you’re lucky, you might even spot Californian condors soaring overhead. Surrounding the canyon, there are fantastic walking trails through the national park and our tours to the Grand Canyon offer an optional helicopter ride over this natural spectacle.

Our Grand Canyon tours are also popular with adventure seekers and nature lovers. You’ll have the option to hike along the rim or raft along the river to experience its grandeur from different perspectives.

A great mix of cultural activities and stunning walks in the most incredible scenery

This was a great trip, made better by a fantastic guide who went out of her way to ensure everyone had a great time.

The itinerary was very well-balanced, including a combination of various sightseeing and walks. For us, first-time visitors to these parts of the USA, every day brought something new and amazing, and we enjoyed it thoroughly. Mike, our guide, is a consummate professional – he ensured everything went like clockwork and without doubts or worries, he gave us all the information we needed, told us in an attractive storytelling manner short historical, geographical, and social narratives, enabling us to understand better the places we saw. His permanent optimism and sense of humor made everything look easy and every minute pleasant and worth remembering. The whole atmosphere was relaxing and as magical as the sites we visited. Thanks! Suggestions for improving the experience: 1. It should be noted that the seats in the van are quite narrow, especially in the last row. There were 11 of us and we fit in the van relatively comfortably. A party of 13 would feel very tight, especially on the longer drives. 2. The best accommodations were in Tonopah and Zion. I understand that there are few other options in most of the locations, but at the price we paid, better motels would have been welcomed. Sorry if I seem a bit picky – all in all, it was a trip to remember, an experience of a lifetime.

FAQs on Grand Canyon Tours

How big is the Grand Canyon?

Dominating the Arizona landscape in the USA, the Grand Canyon is an immense natural wonder that never fails to astound visitors with its size. It stretches for over 270 miles in length and reaches depths of up to 6,000 feet, paying testament to the remarkable forces of erosion that have shaped the landscape over millions of years. With an average width of 10 miles, the Canyon is made up of colourful rock layers and steep cliffs, making it one of the most iconic and impressive canyons in the world.

When is the best time for Grand Canyon tours?

The best time to visit the Grand Canyon will depend on personal preferences and any activities you want to do while you’re there. However, many people prefer to visit in the spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) as these are considered the best times to explore the canyon. This natural wonder draws millions of visitors each year so if you prefer to miss the crowds then it’s best to avoid the summer months. In spring and autumn, the weather is moderate, the crowds are relatively smaller and the landscape is alive with colour and wildlife.

Is it safe to hike in the Grand Canyon?

Hiking in the Grand Canyon is an exhilarating and rewarding experience and your safety is always our top priority. With its rugged terrain, extreme temperatures and remote location, we go to great lengths to prepare for our Grand Canyon tours. It is essential to stay hydrated, protect yourself from the sun and be aware of weather conditions. Proper footwear is also crucial for a safe hike. Knowing your limits and being mindful of the signs of fatigue or heat exhaustion is important to prevent any accidents.

What else is there to do on Grand Canyon trips?

Beyond the iconic viewpoints, there are many more things to do when visiting this natural wonder. Explore lesser-known areas such as Havasu Falls and the North Rim for a unique perspective of the enormity of the canyon or hike to Plateau Point or Skeleton Point for unparalleled panoramas. If you’re interested in history, discover ancient ruins and rock art sites that are scattered throughout the canyon. For the ultimate thrill and an alternative perspective, go river rafting along the Colorado River.

Are there different parts of the Grand Canyon to visit?

Yes, the Grand Canyon is divided into two main areas: the South Rim and the North Rim. One of the most popular parts to visit is the South Rim as it has 360-degree panoramic views, visitor facilities and hiking trails such as the Bright Angel Trail and the South Kaibab Trail. The North Rim is less crowded and higher in elevation, providing a cooler and more tranquil experience with its lush forests and diverse wildlife. For the more adventurous of you, the West Rim is home to the Grand Canyon Skywalk, a glass bridge with a thrilling vantage point.

What activities can I do at the Grand Canyon?

One of the most popular activities at the Grand Canyon is hiking. With numerous trails of varying difficulty levels, you can explore the depths of the canyon, the rim or both. Trails such as the Bright Angel Trail and South Kaibab Trail offer spectacular views and the chance to witness the canyon’s geological formations up close. If you’re looking for a different perspective, take a helicopter tour and enjoy a bird’s eye view. Culture lovers can explore the Grand Canyon Village and visit the historic buildings, museums and art galleries which will give you an insight into the history and geology of the canyon.
