In 2010 I did the trip to the Grand Canyon from Georgia in a 30' class C with 3 adults, 4 dogs, and 3 cats. It was a great trip, took 15 days. Our main goal was the Grand Canyon and staying in Williams at Grand Canyon railway RV park and riding the train for the day to the South Rim.
We left Georgia and spent the 1st night in Nashville, TN., and then spent the next couple of long days making our way to Williams AZ. Several days were spent in Williams, which by the way is right on route 66. 1 day we took the train, go upgraded in parlor class if you can, and kenneled the dogs there. We are not people that will usually kennel dogs ever, but this was an exception. The kennel was first class in my opinion, both in cleanliness and service. The rest of the time the dogs were with us in the motor home. No issues running and keeping cool at stops when needed with the generator. We did not tow an additional vehicle on our trip.
Other places visited, Sedona and Oak Creek Canyon (Must see), Painted Desert, Petrified Forest, Sunset Crater Volcano, Winpikia, and meteor crater while in the Williams area. Coming back we stopped in Hot Springs, Arkansas for a couple of days and visited Diamond Crater Park as well.
It was a great trip, plan it out and have a good time. I would suggest in getting out there, and exploring from there to capitalize on the time you have. Godspeed, Brian
