The Grand Canyon is a steep-sided canyon carved by the Colorado River in the state of Arizona in the United States. It is contained within and managed by Grand Canyon National Park, the Hualapai  Tribal Nation, the Havasupai Tribe and the Navajo Nation. President Theodore Roosevelt  was a major proponent of preservation of the Grand Canyon area, and visited it on numerous occasions to hunt and enjoy the scenery.

The Skywalk in Grand Canyon is awesome. There is so much history around this place. From Indians relics on a reservation to historical rock formations. This is definitely a must see and don't forget to look down when you're on the Skywalk. Grand Canyon village sounded exciting and there are some good options to stay here.

If you want to experience the canyon, a hike into it is a must.  Although I didn't do that but strongly felt about it when met few of hikers during lunch. It is relatively easy to get down to Skeleton Point, but it is an effort getting back to the top. But regardless of your fitness level try and walk down some of the way. There are many other hikes around Grand Canyon. During one day of experience I realized that even one week tour to Grand Canyon is less.

All these photographs speak a lot about Grand Canyon. Before visiting Grand Canyon, I hardly read about the place. All the photographs on internet were enough to encourage me to plan this trip when I visited San Francisco.

If you wish to drive, you can also choose to get a car on rent from Las Vegas. Rentals are little high but it's worth if you in a group. That gives you flexibility to plan the trip in your own way and stop wherever you want to.
