Being our first time to the Grand Canyon, the village wasn't really what we expected. We thought maybe it was....a village. With shops and restaurants, etc. It does have some restaurants, all owned b… Full review by Mike B

Gateway to the grand canyon south rim. For lodging, make a reservation ahead of time to secure your place. Be prepared for higher price tags. There are law enforcement rangers everywhere so be mindfu… Full review by minimize940314

Grand Canyon village .Its a strip of hotels , A Pizza hut restaurant which is part of a cinema . Mac Donald’s and few steak houses a gas station & shop , Trading Post gifts and food and that’s your lot. Not what you’d expect beside a world heritage site

An early morning hike down part of South Kaibab Trail is always an exhilarating way to start the day. Ooh-Aah Point or Cedar Ridge are popular destinations for day-hikers on the trail. Especially in the summer, you want to get your hiking done in the morning. It'll take 1-3hours depending on how far you decide to go. Take the orange shuttle from the visitor center to reach the trailhead. Bring adequate water and maybe some salty snacks. Besides the views right in the village itself, there are great viewpoints to the west along Hermit Road. During the spring, summer, and winter, you'll use the free shuttle to get to them. In the winter, you'll use your own car. About 3 hours will cover it. There are also a series of great viewpoints to the easy along Desert View Drive. It is only reachable with your own vehicle. Takes about 3 hours to cover it.

Thank you very much for the answer. You gave me important hints about the Grand Canyon, exactly what I was hoping to get. Unfortunatelly it will be only a one day trip to the Grand Canyon. I will be back in LV in the evening. This is why it is important for me to know exactly where to go and not lose time searching and asking.
Would like to know what the weather will be like in June and where we should stay in the area that is not full of tourist? We will have a car and flying into Flagstaff.

You can't really avoid tourists, it is the Grand Canyon after all. But it is a huge place, so it's not like you'll be packed wall-to-wall. If your concern is not to have too much hustle and bustle as you step out in the morning, then you probably don't want to stay right on the rim at places like Bright Angel Lodge, El Tovar, Thunderbird Lodge. If you stay further back, say at Maswik or Yavapai, it's more quiet. Yes, you can stay very, very far away from the South Rim, but then what's the point in coming?
