Sunset Grand Discovery Tour

Highlights

Description

The Sunset Grand Discovery Tour is the ultimate Grand Canyon adventure for travelers who want to witness the park’s grandeur by both land and air. Begin your journey at the Buck Wild terminal in Tusayan, where you’ll board a custom Hummer and head into Grand Canyon National Park for a guided exploration of the South Rim. Your local guide shares stories of geology, Native history, and wildlife while leading you to several of the park’s most scenic overlooks—each chosen to catch the canyon’s colors as the sun begins to set. Expect 3–4 stops, including Yavapai Point, Mather Point, or Grandview Point, with time to explore and photograph the shifting light and shadows that make the Grand Canyon world famous. After your Hummer adventure, soar high above the rim on a 45-minute airplane flight that provides panoramic views of the Zuni Corridor, Painted Desert, Kaibab Plateau, and Imperial Point. With narration available in multiple languages, you’ll gain a new appreciation for the canyon’s vastness and the forces of nature that carved it over millions of years. As daylight fades, return with unforgettable images and stories—the glowing red cliffs, the desert’s deepening hues, and the feeling of standing at the edge of one of the world’s great wonders.
