There are multiple ways to experience the canyon – head to the west rim’s and step out on the amazing glass-skywalk, or head to the south rim and take a helicopter to the bottom of the canyon.
The Grand Canyon isn’t the only must see natural wonder in the state, a little further east is Antelope Canyon, an astonishing collection of sandstone eroded away to leave a uniquely featured canyons and beams of sunlight creating an amazing display.
A quick stop over in Phoenix allows you to explore some of the best natural wonders the USA has, while playing a couple of games against local teams and enjoying some pro sports actions with the Suns, Cardinals and Coyotes all in town.
Arizona and the city of Phoenix offer a unique perspective of the USA with its natural wonders combined with some quality hoops and pro sports with short connections/drives to Las Vegas and Los Angeles to end your tour.
Arizona is an experience you’ll never forget.
