Grand Canyon National Park

When you board a flight from Ottawa to Phoenix, you’re just a few hours away from one of the world’s most famous attractions: the Grand Canyon! Take a 3.5-hour drive from Phoenix or book a tour to get to the natural wonder.

The Grand Canyon was carved over several million years by the Colorado River – today, millions of people visit to see its incredible rock formations and landscapes. Visitors have access to the North Rim or South Rim of Grand Canyon National Park. Since it’s closer to Phoenix, the South Rim is the most likely route you’ll take. It’s also more accessible compared to its more remote North Rim counterpart.

Need to stretch your legs after your Ottawa to Phoenix flight? Go on a bike tour with Bike Angel Bicycles! Bike along paths that wind along the edge of the canyon and learn about the history, geology and plant life that thrive here. During your tour you’ll enjoy incredible views and a chance to see wildlife like deer, elk or mules.

If you’re looking for aerial views of the canyon, book a helicopter tour! Tour operators take passengers along the rim, into the canyon and some even land on the canyon floor.
