Return Details

Returns to original departure point
This sightseeing tour to the Grand Canyon begins with a hotel pickup in Las Vegas. Then enjoy the trek east before arriving at the Boulder City Municipal Airport to begin the flight.

Start with a pilot meet and greet, then climb aboard and buckle up in the fixed-wing Vistaliner plane, featuring panoramic windows for the ultimate sightseeing adventure.

Begin by flying over the aqua waters and sandstone shorelines of Lake Mead, the largest reservoir in the United States, and its place of origin, the famous Hoover Dam, a modern marvel of engineering on the border between Nevada and Arizona. Fly high above the Grand Canyon and Colorado River, passing over West Rim attractions like Guano Point, Eagle Point, and the Grand Canyon Skywalk, a glass walkway nearly 4,000 feet above the canyon floor.

Upon landing, take the West Rim Shuttle to Guano Point. Enjoy a light meal along the West Rim while admiring the panoramic views of the Grand Canyon. Additionally, visit Eagle Point at leisure for more incredible scenery.

Upgrade your tour to take a helicopter ride to the canyon floor and float along the Colorado River. Climb aboard a state-of-the-art helicopter and swoop down before landing on the canyon floor. Walk around, get an up-close look at the many layers of the interior of the canyon and gain an even greater appreciation of the immensity of this natural wonder. Then enjoy a pontoon boat ride along the Colorado River, looking up at the canyon’s many beautiful colors and stunning rock formations. 

Experience the breathtaking view from the Grand Canyon Skywalk (own expense), a glass walkway nearly 4,000 feet above the floor of the canyon.

The tour ends with a return flight to Boulder City and a hotel drop-off in Las Vegas.

Would everyone please stay home, so I can visit? Lol

We had a great time. The only issue we experienced was the extremely large crowd and the limited time we had made impossible to see everything that we wanted to. The restaurant was so crowded that by the time we waited 45 minutes to get our 6 digital photos for $65, we didn’t have time to eat.

Grand Canyon - a must visit place
Darran_D
, Mar 2020
An excellent trip from the moment we were picked up at our hotel until we were dropped off. The aeroplane ride took in a great view of the Hoover Dam on the way to the West Rim. The helicopter ride to the bottom of the canyon took in some breathtaking views and the short boat trip gave a different perspective of the canyon from the bottom. The Skywalk was great once you got used to drop beneath your feet but it would have been nice to be able to take your own photos. A well run and professional operation so I would recommend this trip. It is also about 5 hours shorter than the bus trips which leaves more time in Las Vegas.

Early start with little notice

The trip was great EXCEPT that the pick-up time changed from 8 to 6:30 am which was very early. We were notified too late to cancel the trip. I'm glad we powered through because it was a beautiful day and we had a good time, but it was all a bit rushed and I would have loved even just a half hour longer to explore the vistas. We felt like we were running to each.

$600 plane/bus ride to go see guano
coheynen

I bought the air tour from Vegas to go INTO the Grand Canyon on a helicopter cuz I’ve always wanted to go down there. It’s been a lifelong dream of mine. We showed up on time (which they changed on us) and didn’t find out until we got there that the “air tour” includes a plane and bus ride only. So we literally got there, got dropped us off in a place with zero cell reception, and we spent all day waiting for everyone else to get done with their helicopter tour. Not ONE TIME on any tickets, receipts, calls, or in any of their emails did they EVER specify that the helicopter was not part of the “AIR” tour. Not sure what planet these guys live on where a bus ride is part of any “AIR” anything! The only explanation we got is that “it happens all the time” because customers are told “it’s optional,” but it doesn’t specify what you’ve booked until it’s too late, apparently. I spent a fortune to do what I could have done driving. Cost us almost $600. These guys are scam artists!

From start to finish I was NEVER DISAPPOINTED. I researched a ton of tours and as time narrowed down I'm so glad this was the one I chose. Bus pickup from vegas hotel takes you to their plane.(if I had to guess maybe half hour bus ride) my mother and I grouped up with 12 others. Board plane for a super smooth flight to the canyon....(music in the head sets during flight -some narrative when flying over Hoover dam and other interesting facts) The pilot and first officer was amazing... friendly. Personable. 40 min approx.. like clock work we were then paired up with 2 others boarded a helicopter..the staff was very friendly I asked a lot and they answered. The chopper ride was another breath taking experience .... then we landed at the bottom of canyon to take a 15 min water tour... breath it in and look around. Beautiful. Hike back up to the chopper fly back to the top of the canyon- given ur bagged lunch (which was pretty decent turkey hoagie cookies pringles apples and a water) Gift shop .. scene overlook. Eagles landing..skywalk.. Indian TP's ..dont spend alot of time there I suggest . Theres another bus included that takes you over to the guado.. Trails to walk higher places NOT ROPED OFF.. load.up after all that.. back to the bus that takes you to the plane that takes you back to the beginning of the tour.. then the bus back to your hotel ..absolutely amazing... kind... these people were on point from start to finish 7 hours was plenty!! Had a blast. Grand canyon check off bucklist with a smile of appreciation.
