  • Grand Canyon South Rim

    As the audio guides play commentary based on your gps location, you can create your own itinerary along the tour route(s) to match your interests and schedule. Or you can use our trip planners for our suggestions on half, full or multi day itineraries. Some of the many highlights are listed below;

    8 hours

  • N/A (Pass By)

    Scenic Route 64 travels between the East Entrance and Grand Canyon Village, following alongside the Rim for about 25 miles. This is a lovely scenic drive with many stunning viewpoints to stop and enjoy including Desert View, Navajo Point, Lipan Point, Moran Point, Grandview Point and Duck on a Rock. The stunning climax of the drive is the Desert View Watchtower. A very worthwhile cultural stop and opportunity to learn more about Ancestral Puebloans is available at the Tusayan Museum and Ruins.

  • Grand Canyon Village

    The historic heart of the Grand Canyon and location of famous lodges and businesses, including the Kolb and Lookout Studios. The Village area is very compact and we will have to park the car and explore the Rim Trail on foot, which is something not to be missed. There are many superb views from the flat trail. The log train station and the mule barn are popular sightseeing locations in the Village.

    1 hour

  • Williams

    Considered the gateway to the Grand Canyon, the town of Williams also has one of the best preserved Route 66 experiences along its Main St with diner cafes, shopping and lodging. This is the start location for many visitors first arriving to see the Grand Canyon.

    1 hour

  • N/A

    No spoilers - we don't really want to get too deep into why Duck Rock has its name, but you can probably work out why easily enough! Just want you to know that it is a highlight that will be pointed out as we tour along Desert View Drive.

    20 minutes

  • Chapel of the Holy dove

    This tiny A-shaped Ponderosa log chapel sits along on Hwy 180 in the Coconino National Forest on the route between Flagstaff and the South Entrance. Built in 1961/62 by the Watson Family who were medical practioners in nearby Grand Canyon. The chapel remains open for all passersby for prayer or reflection, or even just a pretty photo.

    20 minutes

  • Grand Canyon Desert View Watchtower

    The highlight of the 25-mile Desert View Drive that connects the Village to the eastern entrance to the park. The tower is an architectural masterpiece by Mary Colter, in the Ancestral Puebloan style and offers impressive 100 mile views up and down the canyon on clear days. Enjoy the architecture, location and the collection of artifacts contained inside the tower.

    1 hour

  • Lipan Point

    Lipan Point is one of the not-to-be-missed stops along Desert View Drive. Look way down to the Colorado River and you might be able to see powerful whitewater rapids. Hance Rapid is one of the most challenging along the river and are a class 7 to 8. One of the most active archeological sites in the Grand Canyon is at Unkar Delta, once home to Ancestral Puebloan people. This is one of only a few places in the South Rim where you can see The Grand Canyon Supergroup - layers of rock strata, all the way down to the Vishnu Basement Rocks, oldest at the canyon.

    30 minutes

  • Little Colorado River Gorge

    For visitors arriving from Cameron, AZ, the Little Colorado River Gorge might offer the first stop and sneak peak into what lays ahead after entering the National Park. Although, it's actually one of the largest tributary arms of the Grand Canyon, at over 3,000 feet (910 m) deep. The Navajo Tribal Park offers an overlook and picnic ground facilities for a small entrance fee.

    1 hour

  • Grandview Point

    One of the many scenic viewpoints along Desert View Drive, but this is one you won't want to miss. Panoramic views into the Grand Canyon and glimpses of the Colorado River. Popular also as it's the location of the now dismantled Grandview Hotel. First built as a simple mining cabin and then expanded as tourism grew. The Grandview Trail follows an original Native American route, that was also used to access the copper, gold and silver mines, before the National Park was established. It's a hike that requires preparation due to its steepness, sun exposure in the summer months and ice and snow in the winter.

    30 minutes

  • San Francisco Peaks (Pass By)

    Just north of Flagstaff, as we drive to, or from, the National Park, the San Francisco Peaks are a volcanic mountain range and the highest point in the state of Arizona, rising to over 12,000 feet.

  • Mather Point

    For many visitors this is the very first view they will have of the massiveness of the Grand Canyon. It's a first impression that will stay with you forever. Easily accessed from a large parking area using paved all-mobilities trail. There is a large Visitor Center and cafe at the same location. It is a scenic and rewarding but flat walk to use the Rim Trail to connect between the Village and Mather Point.

    30 minutes

  • Yavapai Point

    For visitors arriving at the Grand Canyon through the South Entrance, Yavapai is often the second panoramic view they will stop to enjoy after Mather Point. You can dive deeper into the complicated geological story of the Grand Canyon at the Yavapai Museum of Geology. This combination bookstore, museum, with exhibits and visitor center is built in harmonious canyon rock to blend with the surrounds. It provides a covered viewing area with large picture windows. The three dimensional map models allow an appreciation of the scale and colored layers throughout the South Rim.

A great value tour by car!

Published on Dec, 2024

This was the perfect way to drive the canyon and see everything and learn about the history of the canyon and the area. We drove from Flagstaff, did the South Rim and returned vita Cameron. We made most of the stops and each one was worth the effort. Totally worth the price if you want to see the Grand Canyon by car on the cheep!

A great way to get a tour of the Grand Canyon

Published on Dec, 2024

We were 1st time visitors to the Grand Canyon and this was so educational and showed us so many other viewing points that we may not have found otherwise. Highly recommend!

Worked good, simple!

Published on Dec, 2024

Downloading the app was easy. Instructions were straightforward and simple. App uses GPS to track where you are and gives you directions and interesting info. We backtracked on part of the route and some of the information going back was different than we were given to begin with. Maybe a little hard on phone battery. Will purchase again if have the chance on another trip.

Fantastic, Awestruck and a place everyone should visit in their lifetime…

Published on Nov, 2024

This driving app is spot ON! Do view the Setup Instructions provided and use your phones speaker. It works flawless and adds a ton of interesting facts about the area and history behind your visit. Worth every penny asked. Thanks KJ

Great audio tour!
