Grand Canyon Skywalk
Massive media coverage of the Grand Canyon Skywalk opening has caught everyone a little by surprise! Bigger than expected crowds are making their way to the West Rim each day, and finding they need to be well prepared in order to enjoy this amazing new attraction.

Here are Viator's suggestions on what to take along to make your Skywalk experience truly memorable:

• A little patience! And maybe your iPod... waits in line of over an hour are common.
• Bottled water. You can't buy it on site yet, and you will get thirsty!
• Sunscreen and a hat. There's very little shade in the desert, and the sun can really burn out here.
• Comfortable shoes and light clothing. Spring and summer are hot in the desert.

Skywalk is a unique and wonderful attraction, but to make sure you remember it for all the right reasons, be sure to follow our advice.
