At the end of AZ-389, take the right turn onto Toroweap Road (also known as Tuweep Road). Note that this is a dirt road and requires a high-clearance vehicle. Drive approximately 61 miles on Toroweap Road until you reach the Toroweap Overlook parking area. The road can be rough, so take it slow and be cautious of any obstacles.

Follow the directions above from the South Rim. Alternatively, you can take a shuttle service from Grand Canyon Village to a nearby location and then arrange for a rental car from there. Be aware that rental services might not be available directly at the park.
