Nice but busy trip for a one week vacation. A little bit for everyone including Vegas, Grand Canyon and many national parks, and some Route 66 nostalgia. My recommendations include setting up your Canyon visit early to try to stay close to the park and to set up a mule ride. Also enter the Canyon from the east end at Desert View. My favorite places to stay were the Canyon Motel in Williams and the Wigwam Hotel in Holbrook.

This looks like a great trip, I've been to many of these places during various jaunts through the area. If I were to take this trip, I would skip Vegas, and make the Grand Canyon it's very own excursion.
