Feel like a VIP on this tour to the Grand Canyon! Get picked up directly from your hotel in Las Vegas to board a state-of-the-art Eco-Star helicopter to the West Rim of the Grand Canyon. The Eco-star helicopter is designed specifically for touring, with noise level reduced 50% compared to a standard helicopter, panoramic wraparound windows for 180-degree viewing and a fuel-efficient engine that allows for maximized travel time. On this tour you will fly over Hoover Dam, Lake Mead, the Colorado River, Grand Wash Cliffs, Grapevine Mesa, and the Mojave Desert. As you fly over the West Rim, which belongs to the Hualapai Nation Tribe of Native Americans, descend 4,000 feet onto the Canyon floor where you will enjoy a champagne lunch in celebration of your journey! Explore the rock formations and the Colorado River up-close in person. Don’t miss your opportunity to take this popular tour! Seats sell out quickly!
This tour is approximately 4 hours long from the hotel pick-up to hotel drop-off. The helicopter flight and the lunch are each approximately 30 minutes long. The helicopter narration is offered in the following languages: Chinese – Mandarin and Cantonese, Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese and Spanish.
We recommend guest make their reservation in advance to secure a preferred pick-up and flight time for their tour. Please include your preferred pick-up time in the additional notes when booking online.
