Experience the Grand Canyon at sunset! Whatever you do, bring your camera. This tour allows time to watch the sunset paint the canyon walls. The sun dropping below the rim is only half of the show; the colors making their way up the canyon as the sun sets are unforgettable. You’ll watch the transition while sitting on the edge of the canyon.

Your first stop will be Yavapai Point, which offers the largest geological exposure of rock layers. The rim to river views are spectacular, as are views of Phantom Ranch, South Kaibab and Bright Angel Trails. See the Colorado River far below.

Our expert guides will take guests down below the rim to view authentic fossil beds along the way. On your hike, you’ll be able to view the Hermit Rapids from the rim as well as landmarks in the canyon, including the former Hermit Camp.

A free ticket to the IMAX® Movie, "Grand Canyon: Rivers of Time," is included in your tour.

    Great tour. Our guide, Rob Sweeny was very knowledgeable and outgoing. He is also an experienced hiker. Any man who can wear knee-high pink socks must really enjoy what he’s doing. The hike itself was excellent. Got some great pics and memories. I highly recommend this tour.
