Keresés

Grand Canyon az Amerikai Egyesült Államok egyik legnagyobb látnivalója. Az embernek nem sokszor van esélye az életben egy ilyen csodás helyszínre eljutni, ezért nem árt utazás előtt jól felkészülni. A következő tippek rengeteget segíthetnek az utazásunk megszervezésében a Grand Canyon Nemzeti Parkba. Sok egyéb mellett nem mindegy melyik évszakban, melyik részére és milyen céllal utazunk ide. Igaz a legtöbb ember csak átutazóban jár itt, ám akár 1-2 nap alatt is rengeteg mindent fel lehet fedezni feltéve, ha jól van megtervezve az utazás. A posztban összefoglaltam pár érdekességet és az összes fontosabb tényt a Grand Canyonról. Ezekért a tényekért én nagyon hálás lettem volna, ha utazás előtt valaki elmondta volna nekem, rengeteg időt és pénzt spórolhattam volna velük. De nézzük inkább sorjában mire is kell odafigyelni.

Sziasztok!

 

Jövő tavasszra tervezünk egy USA Keleti part 2-3 hetes túrát. Az interneten nagyon sok infó van ezekről - már túl sok is.

 

Engem a személyes tapasztalatok érdekelnének: Ki merre járt? Mi az amit semmiképp nem lehet kihagyni? Mi az, ami feledhető?
