There is a great little cafe in Tusayan called, funnily enough the Tusayan Café. It is found two miles south of the entrance to the Grand Canyon National Park on Highway 64. The service is very good and the staff are pleasant, helpful and friendly. This is a typical roadside café with paper napkins and placemats. It is clean and presentable with paintings of the Grand Canyon on the walls. The food at the Tusayan Café is well presented and delicious. We had missed breakfast at the hotel so stopped by before heading into the Grand Canyon National Park and…

Hotel Review – Kachina Lodge Grand Canyon
Tuesday, March 4th, 2008 at
4:20 am
Check in is at 4pm and we had arrived too early to check in. However the young man checked our reservation and suggested we return around 2pm to see if the room was available. When we did return at around 2.30pm the room still wasn’t ready so we sat in the lobby with a number of other people who were also waiting to check in. The young lady behind the counter said she would list us as being in the hotel so that housekeeping would move our room up the list of rooms to be serviced. Check in for the…
Views of the Grand Canyon

Here are some of the views of the Grand Canyon that we took a week ago. It is a great place to visit especially in March when there is still snow around. These views were taken at different times of the day. Paula hadn’t been in snow before and when she stepped into it her feet sunk into the icy snow. There is a photo of her getting the ice out of her shoes. We hadn’t thought there would be ice in the Grand Canyon so we hadn’t waterproofed our shoes. ARA shoes are meant for walking not wading through…
Restaurant Review: Dining at the Grand Canyon – El Tovar and Bright Angel Lodge

During our stay at the Grand Canyon we ate at both the the El Tovar Restaurant and the Arizona Room at the Bright Angel Restaurant. The El Tovar restaurant is apparently world renowed although after eating breakfast here I am sure it is not because of the quality of its food. Maybe lunch and dinner are better but our breakfast was just plain terrible. It is the first bad meal we have had during our trip to the US so far. We both ordered the two egg breakfast with bacon and fried potatoes which came with a strawberry on the…
From Tusayan To The Grand Canyon

This morning we head down at 9am for the complimentary breakfast which is much better than we expected. There were omelets, sausage patties, a variety of breads, cereals, coffee, tea, fruit juices and fruit. Once we have eaten we pack the car and head off from the Holiday Inn in Tusayan to the Grand Canyon a few miles away. We stop at the toll gate and pay the $25.00 per vehicle park entrance fee. The fee for pedestrians and cyclists is $12 per person and the entrance fee is valid for seven consecutive days from the date of purchase on…
