Mather Point is one of the most popular sunset viewpoints in the Grand Canyon, and for good reason! The sunset colors are absolutely breathtaking, offering panoramic views of the canyon’s vastness an… Full review by travelswithkrishna

Great viewing point of the Grand Canyon. Parked very close both early morning and sunset. Only 5 min walk. Note this was December though. Sunset does not fall behind the canyon but it was still great. Full review by debbiel512

Probably the most popular viewing place in the Grand Canyon and worth it, views are wonderful, maybe a little crowded sometimes to get your pic, but worth a wait Full review by PeterB11369

We will be in Las Vegas for an Archery Tournament next month. We wanted to take a ride and see the Grand Canyon. We were looking for something a little closer than the South Rim area/Park Headquarters, a 4 hour drive in a packed car is not fun for any of us. We wanted to get a little closer, perhaps the West Rim, but did not want to go to the Skywalk. Is there any place that is worth seeing, or should we just bite the bullet and drive to the South Rim? Any assistance/guidance is greatly appreciated. Thank You

A friend of mine back east threatened to "kick my butt" if I spent three months in AZ and didn't go see the Grand Canyon. So I took off long before sunrise, driving 5 hrs to get there early in the morning. It was SOOO worth it. OH My GOD YES. It is one of the most beautiful natural wonders I have seen. Mt. McKinley/Denali right there with it. Put up with the drive and GO. I've been to Mather Point and Desert view and all the stops between. Then did it all over again about a month later. Loved both trips. Hope to visit again someday.
My family and have never been to the Grand Canyon and have to drive through this area because we're relocating for work but wanted to make a day stop. Any recommendations where we can go to see the Grand Canyon and take pictures and such without having to buy a tour?

You have a couple of options. If you are just driving through East to West, it would be best to come in through Cameron (off Hwy 89) there are several view points (and I consider some of these to be some of the best). When you get to the visitor center, there are shuttles that will take you to view points along the rim (free). If you are going West to East, come in from the south at Williams off Interstate 40 and go directly to the Visitor's center and take the shuttles from there.
please suggest a nice company for a day tour from las vegas

It's 4-5 hours from Las Vegas to the GCNP so it's really not a "day tour". I'd rent a car, take your time driving there - stop at Hoover Dam on the way. Drive to the area and stay in either Williams or Tusayan. You might get lucky and catch a cancellation at a hotel in the park but they were all booked a long time ago (some more than a year in advance). Depending on how early you start, you'll have time to spend at the park before it gets dark. Then get an early start the next day, leaving in the afternoon to return to Las Vegas.
