Gateway to Grand Canyon National Park
Tusayan, Arizona: your RV basecamp
The South-Rim gateway one mile from the entrance — stage here and take the park shuttle to the rim.
Best months
Mar–May, Sep–Oct (the South Rim is open year-round; summer rim lots fill early)
RV prep
The rim sits at ~7,000 ft — carry layers, and top off fuel and water before the long drives between viewpoints.
