Mule rides in the Grand Canyon are a relatively inexpensive way for you to get a great look at the Grand Canyon and get the full experience of this beautiful part of the country. One of the things that you have to remember, though, is that there are a finite number of companies offering mule rides - because the Grand Canyon is such an attractive destination for tourists you may have to book your Grand Canyon Tours on a traveling mule several months in advance.
There are also a number of rules that you must consider - generally there is a weight limit. Although the mules which are selected for use by the mule ride companies are particularly hardy and healthy they have their limits and usually you will need to weight less than two hundred pounds when you are fully dressed and carrying everything that you are taking with you. This will have to include your backpack, water, etc. (and you will want to carry water because you are likely to become thirsty, not to mention hungry, over the course of the day).
Depending on the Grand Canyon mule riding tour that you choose you may stay for one day or two, and your trip may include a stop at a ghost town or small village along one of the trails. For many of these trips which include plenty of stops there will be places along the way where food and drink will be provided, so factor this into your planning and you may be able to simply show up and enjoy the trip without having to bring a lot of heavy supplies with you.
Also keep in mind that the day after you ride on a mule you are likely to be sore, so you should have some time to relax after your mule ride. Good luck planning a mule ride in the Grand Canyon!
