There is nothing quite like enjoying your morning cup of coffee overlooking the sunrise of the Grand Canyon. The mix of colors rising over the canyon walls create a serene landscape unlike any other. Not sure you're a morning person? This is sure to change your mind!

AWE-INSPIRING VIEWS

No matter how many stories you've heard about the grandeur and majesty of the Grand Canyon, or how many inspiring images you may have seen, nothing can prepare you for the actual, awe-inspiring sight of it. It truly is something to behold at least once in your lifetime.

Keep an eye open for wildlife, like bighorn sheep, bears, and elk. You’ll even learn the names of all those lush trees and spiky plants along the roads. And above all, don’t forget to bring a camera to capture this amazing Natural Wonder of the World!

UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITE As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Grand Canyon welcomes approximately six million domestic and international visitors each year.
