Not retiring yet but am becoming more open to taking more time off and doing my fantasy trips while I am still physically fit enough to pull them off. One of that list is the Grand Canyon rim to rim trip. Thinking of funding it for myself and whichever adult children are interested and can make the time. My wife would be okay chilling in a nearby resort while we do the trip.

Other than googling though I don’t even know where to start! I know to plan a few days and with guide. And a lead time of over a year to get permits and all. But that’s it.

Anyone with experience to share? Guidance?
