What the Paiute Indians called Kaibab, or "Mountain Lying Down", is without question one of America's must-see tourist destinations. Stretching some 277 miles from end to end, it is an awe-inspiring wonder that has to be seen to be believed. There are many companies offering Grand Canyon tours in the region, and an organized tour is indeed one of the best ways to see the flora, fauna and breath-taking scenery.
Trips by bus, airplane, raft and helicopter (to name just four) are available, and whichever mode of travel visitors choose, they can be assured of an experience to remember. Tours depart from Las Vegas as well as areas close to the Canyon itself, including Tusayan and the Grand Canyon Village (see below). Many visitors choose to take excursions at sunrise or sunset when the full beauty of the scenery is highlighted in truly spectacular fashion.
The landscape consists of several distinct areas, some more accessible to tourists than others. Much of it, including the canyon itself, is contained within the Grand Canyon National Park. This is one of the United States' oldest national parks, gaining it's official status in 1919. It was declared a World Heritage site by UNESCO in 1979, and is considered one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World.
Broadly, the National Park is split in two main regions: the North Rim and the South Rim. The North Rim is more remote and enjoys relatively little tourist activity. The South Rim is far more accessible and consequently plays host to the majority of visitors to the region. Also, the South-Western area of the canyon borders two Indian reservations: the Havasupai and Hualapai reservations, respectively.
As mentioned above, the area has its own village which is dedicated to serving the four million-plus visitors to the region each year. Its origins date back to 1901 when the first railroad from Williams, Arizona was completed by the Santa Fe railroad enterprise. Many of the buildings in the center of the town are historic landmarks dating from this era. Visitors today will find a comprehensive array of services including lodging, restaurants, equipment hire, a bank and post office.
The village is located in the South Rim and provides an ideal starting point for visitors to see one of the major attractions of the region: its fauna. A huge variety of birds and animals can be seen in the area including several rare species. Deer, bobcats, skunks, coyote and mountain lions are just some of the animals who make their homes in the valley.
Among the rare birds that visitors might spot is North America's largest land bird, the California Condor. The Bald eagle can be found in the trout-rich Colorado River corridor along with 250 other species of bird. The region as a whole is home to some 373 species in total.
Without a doubt, this area provides one of the most extraordinary experiences that North America has to offer. Visitors wanting more information can call the National Park Service on (928) 638-7888 or visit their website at http://nps.gov. For visitors already in the area, there are visitor centers in Grand Canyon Village, Flagstaff and Williams.
