The acceptable forms of payment are cash, travelers’ checks, charge cards, and personal or commercial checks.

There are a number of passes also available for purchase if you plan to visit the Grand Canyon more than once a year. There is a Grand Canyon National Park Annual Pass that is $50 dollars and is valid for twelve months from the date of purchase. Another option is the National Parks and Federal Recreational Lands Pass which cost $80 dollars, but is for all Federal recreation sites that charge an Entrance or Standard Amenity Fee.
