April 19, 2012 - A conversation with a Visitor while they were on the https://grandcanyon.com/hotels/south-rim-hotels/ page.
Visitor - I'm an Australian, I would like to visit the Park for a few days at the end of next week. How do I find out if there is any chance of accomodation in the park without phoning?
Rita - For lodging in the park, go to: www.grandcanyonlodges.com. For lodging just outside the park entrance go to: Hotels near the South Rim Entrance
Visitor - Thanks Rita, can I check availability in the park before booking? Just didn't seem that's the case.
Rita - Yes, at the first link, GrandCanyonLodges.com will show you what is available inside Grand Canyon National park.
Visitor - And one other question please, if I stay in Tusayan is there a way to get into the park if I don't have a car? Thanks heaps!
Rita - Yes, there are shuttles you can pick up in Tusayan to go into the Park.
Rita - The Tusayan shuttles do not start until May 12th. Let me see what else may be available in Tusayan...just one moment.
Visitor - Thanks very much.
Rita - There is a Tusayan taxi service. They would be able to take you into the Park. Then you could pick up the Park shuttle, which is free. The taxi service number is 928-638-0821. They will answer "Grand Canyon Airlines", but they will transfer you to the taxi service.
Visitor - Thanks Rita
Rita - You are welcome!
