Grand Canyon Tours

This 1941 flyer, which came as an insert to the Grand Canyon Outings booklet, describes lodging, activities, trips, and all-expense tours in Grand Canyon National Park. The flyer includes seven different one-, two-, and three-day tours of the Grand Canyon, all of which started from El Tovar.

The flyer gives rates for everything from horseback riding to three-day all-expense-paid tours. El Tovar Hotel rates are quoted on either the European or American plan (the latter comes with all meals). Rooms under the American plan are $3 more per night than the European plan; the flyer also says that table d’hôte meals are $1 for breakfast, $1 for lunch, and $1.50 for dinner, so the American plan saves all of 50 cents for tourists who think they need to eat everything that comes with a table d’hôte dinner.
