My husband is on vacation the first week of October and were thinking about taking a trip to the North Rim. I really enjoyed your video and I also subscribed so I could see where else you go so maybe we can go other places too. I only had one question for you, what time of year were you there? You had to put on a jacket so I'm just wondering if October would be extremely cold. We'd be driving from the Phoenix, AZ area. Thank you again for the video.
I need to get back to the Grand Canyon. We made it to the South Rim and hardly had any time to explore. The scenery there is just incredible... so many great view points 👌
I hate to say it, but indeed, YES, the North Rim is worth the drive! But most people think only of the South Rim. Those of us who know of the North Rim want to keep it a secret, so it doesn't become a "Disneyland" like the South Rim is in the tourist season. North Rim is less crowded, cooler, cabins and rooms are less expensive and the views are just as spectacular! It's an awesome place. The main Lodge was designed by the same architect that designed the lodge on the South Rim. Food at the lodge is very good as well. I like to sit on the open patio and watch the sunset with a tall drink of iced tea. It's so much more enjoyable than the South Rim. You can also ride the mules as well. They usually are not booked solid. But they do not go down all the way to the Colorado River. Instead, they only go to Roaring Springs. You and the mules rest there and eat some lunch. This ride is awesome, but can be a bit scary on some parts of the Trail. My family used to book a cabin there in the Autumn for about 5 days, so it's a family favorite.
Oooh like that....when you go the extra mile, there aren't any crowds. Reminds me of what I say about parking garages...there's always room at the top...LoL so keep driving and I bet no one is fighting for space up there.
Agreed! The wait in a busy parking garage is the worst because you know there are hundreds of spots higher up, but someone just has to hold up traffic for two minutes to get one on a lower level.
The Grand Canyon is still on our bucket list and it is really impressive to see just how big it is and how much more there is to see than insta and pictures show. Really glad the weather held out for you to experience the north rim alone like that.
Haha, that huge bison looks really cute wallowing on the ground. Bright Angel Point is wow! The views are just breathtaking! This place is full of calmness. Wow, the top of Angel's Window looks amazing and scary at the same time! So happy for you guys, that's such a great adventure :)
Stunning capture, especially of Imperial Point! The storm looked scary, but at least it didn't get worse besides just a little more chilly. Angel's window looks really cool too! Love that it's natural and really appreciate the railings to protect people from falling. No crowds for the win though! Just from the views, it definitely looks worth it! Who knew that we had this beauty in the USA. WOOO 4 hours. That's probably why less people there!
I love the Grand Canyon. It's such a magnificent natural wonder. I actually would enjoy that solitude. I've been only to the West Rim. I'll put the North side on my list. The views are amazing.
Hey world traveler!! So, do you think the North Rim is worth a visit? Let us know in the comments below!
I'd love to go there! Breathtaking and also my bf said he felt the energy flowing through his body in Grand Canyon. Just awesome 🥰

At the South Rim I SAW the canyon, but at the North Rim I FELT the canyon. For me it's a must-see!
@@superdave1949 Beautifully put! Glad you enjoyed it!
I need to get back to the Grand Canyon. We made it to the South Rim and hardly had any time to explore. The scenery there is just incredible... so many great view points 👌
Yeah, you would think one viewpoint would be enough but it’s nice how uniquely wonderful each viewpoint is. It’s worth spending some time.
@@LucasWorldTravel Yes I agree, you definitely need a good amount of time there to look around.

Wow staying in the lodge really does sound lovely! Thanks for sharing your experience!
A very nice informative video by a pleasant articulate narrator. She really makes you want to visit the north rim
Wow, thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you 😊
Headed that way in 2 weeks! Thanks for the info
You're welcome! Enjoy the North Rim!

Wow, it’s just view after view! North rim definitely worth it, and you have it all to yourself 😊 Angel’s window is beautiful 🥰
Yep Angel’s window is our favorite too! Best view in the park!
It looks as though the North Rim is definitely worth it! Love when a stunning view is just a few steps from the car!
Yep we were really impressed by the North Rim. We have no idea why more people don’t go.
Visiting the North Rim 5/21/24. Great video
Nice! Hope you enjoyed the North Rim!
@@LucasWorldTravel had a great time there. Well worth the time
@@broinsocali Great to hear!

We felt so lucky that it didn't pour on us! Seeing Angel's Window was definitely our favorite!
A 4 hour drive...wowwww the grand canyon is huge!!!
Indeed very huge!

Thanks Kat! This was such a fun adventure and we have no idea why more people don’t go to the North Rim. It’s amazing!

It was a super long secluded drive, but definitely worth it! We found the park stunning!
The North Rim sure looks like it is worth visiting! The view from on top of Angels Window 😍 wow. How incredible you were the only ones there 😊
We had so many viewpoints to ourselves. We have no idea why so few people go there. 🤷🏾♀️
@@LucasWorldTravel being able to experience something all to yourself is sooo special :)
Loved your vid of the North Rim, great energy. (infectious but mellow). I hope to catch this area in October. Hopefully before the snow flies. Bill
Awesome! Enjoy Bill!
I'm planning to visit in 2025. This video helps backup my travels plans.
Good! Glad we could help you decide to go to the North Rim. Enjoy!
Wonderful views !

Many thanks! Thanks for stopping by the channel! Good luck with your Grand Canyon travel planning!
Definitely worth going!
Most definitely! We have no idea why so few people go to the North Rim. We thought it was amazing!

Many thanks! Kind regards!
I love the Grand Canyon. It's such a magnificent natural wonder. I actually would enjoy that solitude. I've been only to the West Rim. I'll put the North side on my list. The views are amazing.
I'm in Ireland currently. Can't wait to see the Croatia videos. I live that country.
Well we really enjoyed Croatia and hope our videos represent that well!
WOW, those views 😍 thanks for sharing ❤️
Thanks for stopping by guys!
I want to go back to the US now! Loved my trip!
Great to hear! The US has so many beautiful national parks! We understand why you want to go back!
Heading there Tuesday . Thanks for the video.
Nice! Enjoy! Glad the video was helpful!
Beautiful. It’s on my bucket list.
You will love it! And since you will be living in Arizona soon there’s no reason not to explore it.
Yes it is. We enjoyed our stay there.
Nice! We would love to stay overnight in the national parks one day. Goals!
