If you look into the Canyon from one of its cliffs or observation points, it's hard to believe that this enormous beauty was created by a tiny muddy river that runs down there. However, if you descend on the floor of the Grand Canyon, you will see that Colorado River is really fast and mighty - and it becomes easier to imagine how these fast rapids have made their way through the rocks. There are many ways to experience the magnificence of the Grand Canyon rocks and the Colorado River - rafting, hiking, ATV riding, taking a jeep or a bus tour, and even helicopter and boat rides. Most Grand Canyon tours depart from Las Vegas, Phoenix or Williams.

While there are many Grand Canyon tours by airplane to Grand Canyon West, the number of tours to the South Rim and North Rim is limited. If you are not sure which Rim is "better", here is a brief info. West is the territory of Hualapai Indians. The famous Skywalk bridge is located there. Because if its proximity to Las Vegas, West is the most popular tourist destination. South Rim and North Rim are located farther from Las Vegas. Both West and South Rim offer multiple "extra" activities: walking, sightseeing, helicopter rides. North Rim offers ATV rides, horseback rides, but no helicopter. However, they are all very beautiful!
