On this page you will find
the answer to these questions:
Does my child need a reservation? What should I wear and bring

stay at for a reasonable price? Yes, we have hotel information and
reservation you can view by CLICKING
HERE What will the temperature
be at the Grand Canyon during my trip? What
is your cancellation policy? For Tours:
The same Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) rule applies to our planes.
Any child under the age of two can sit on an adults lap and not
be charged for the flight. However, it is always recommended that
each person have their own seat with proper restraint systems. Children
over the age of two must have a reservation, too.
Clothing - Remember you will be starting your hike on the
rim of the canyon, near 7,000 feet, so the air will be cool in the early
morning or in the evening. The temperatures in the canyon are very different
the lower you go into the canyon, the hotter it gets. Shorts, a light
shirt, and a windbreaker are recommended for the warmer months. Summer
rains do occur n Arizona, too.
Footwear -Ankle support and traction are a must in the Grand
canyon. Shoes should be comfortable, broken in, and laced up tight to
keep our feet secure.
Hat -To keep your head covered up from the sun, and fill
with water to pour over your head when it gets hot.
Sunglasses - Shields for your eyes is important for UV protection.
The Arizona sun can be very strong.
Bandanna or scarf - Helps keep your neck cool when wet,
lots of other handy uses, too.
Sunscreen / Chapstick - SPF 15 or better for the Arizona
sun is very strong.
Light Day Pack - Only if you prefer to carry this - it is
not necessary for the tours and optional on the hiking trips. (On hiking
trips the guide carries a big pack for water, food, snacks, umbrellas
and ponchos.)
The table below will give you a good idea on what kind of temperatures
to expect when you visit the Grand Canyon. The "Rain" column
indicates the amount of precipitation the canyon receives in the month.
Measurements are in degrees Fahrenheit and inches. (Measurements in parenthesis
are degrees Celsius and centimeters.)
