We stayed in a cabin on the North Rim. It had a wonderful lodge right by it and we totally loved the whole experience. We sent the kids on a mule ride escorted by park rangers and we hiked by ourselves. On the South Rim we camped in the campground nearest the park hotel. and spent our time hiking. I would take the mule ride to the bottom if I were doing it again. Both times we drove the roads along the rims and saw every outlook. I would recommend you see the waterfall at the western end of the canyon and definitely see Vermillian Cliffs at the eastern end. I think that perhaps the best way to see the canyon is the rafting trip down the river. Don't miss that.
