Best time to take a day trip from Las Vegas to Grand Canyon
Spring (March to May) and fall (September to November) are generally the best times for a day trip to the Grand Canyon with pleasant weather, temperatures ranging between mid-50s°F to 80s°F, moderate crowds, and optimal conditions for outdoor exploration. However, every season offers its own unique charm, so plan based on your interests and comfort.
Summer (June to August) is the peak tourist season, with larger crowds and higher temperatures (often exceeding 100°F or 38°C). Winter (December to February) can bring cooler temperatures and occasional snow at higher elevations, particularly at the South Rim.
