The majority of Grand Canyon visitors who are not from the Southwest fly into Sky Harbor International Airport in Phoenix, AZ. The most direct route from Phoenix to the Grand Canyon South Rim is about 230 miles. There are several Grand Canyon tour companies that leave from Phoenix or Scottsdale, though there are fewer options for this service directly from the Metro Phoenix are than if you were leaving from northern Arizona. If you are wanting to head north towards the Grand Canyon directly from the Phoenix airport, Arizona Shuttle offers transportation service to Sedona and Flagstaff every couple of hours. But most visitors post up in the Scottsdale and Phoenix area for a few days and enjoy what this resort city has to offer before heading towards the wilds of the Great Southwest. Visiting the Grand Canyon for a day trip is definitely doable, but it makes for a long day. With the drive taking just under four hours each way, your trip will be no less breath-taking, but likely abbreviated. Going on an air or helicopter tour once you get to the canyon is another great way to make the most of your time at this Natural Wonder of the World. If spending time at the Grand Canyon is important to you, consider staying a night in Sedona, Flagstaff, or Williams.
