Grand Canyon South Rim, Arizona

Rating:
 

A family vacation to the South Rim of the Grand Canyon National Park offers families more than a view of a gaping hole. Hike, horseback ride or take a mule trip. Visit a museum or explore an Anasazi archaeological site. Take a train tour from Williams through the Wild West. And if expectations are managed properly, cultivate appreciation for one of the seven natural wonders of the world.

Xanterra operated Bright Angel Lodge offers no-frills accommodation on the South Rim. What is lacking in comfort is offset by the view. Some of the cabins are right on the Rim Trail and can be quite noisy. The restaurant is fair. Children under 16 sleep free.
