Families with kids age 10 and up can experience the Grand Canyon's South Rim in a special way this summer (and beyond), with a two-day, two-night program that includes:
- lodging (typically at Yavapai West Lodge or Maswik Lodge) *
- in-park transportation
- one dinner, two breakfasts, two box lunches
- a guide each day, instructional materials, retail coupons and a course completion certificate.
Sample agenda: on arrival, guests attend a short orientation. The next morning, a guide/naturalist from the Grand Canyon Field Institute takes the group hiking and exploring along and below the South Rim, with emphasis on the park's geology and ecology. On Day Two's agenda are exploration of the rim plus discussions of the Canyon's geology and human history.
