Excellent visitors center, as is typical of the National Park Service, which provides a audio-visual presentation, visitor assistance and a small gift shop. There may also be a Navajo craftsman creating and selling handmade items.

Exterior

There is also a small display area with artifacts and cultural information of the canyon.

Display

At the visitors center you can also obtain the services of a Navajo guide for either driving your own vehicle or hiking within the canyon. (Note that driving the North or South Rim roads and hiking the White House trail does not require a guide.)
