Grand Canyon Imax Movie Guide

Grand Canyon Imax

Nothing beats exploring the Grand Canyon on your own two feet, but there is something to be said about a good movie (especially a Grand Canyon Imax).  The Imax is a great way to see all the things you didn't have a chance to see during your visit. If the kids are tired of walking, it's a rainy day, or you just got back from a Grand Canyon hike or rafting trip, it may be the the perfect way to relax and learn more about the Grand Canyon.  The Grand Canyon Imax is about a five minute-drive from the South Entrance of Grand Canyon National Park, so if you don’t have time to see it all than make the short drive to Tusayan, AZ and experience the world’s most watched Imax Movie. Read the guide below to learn more about Imax times, tickets and pricing as well as other tours and restaurants at the National Geographic Visitor Center.
