Tour Description

This incredible sightseeing experience brings together three of the most popular activities available at Grand Canyon West. Depart from our terminal just beyond Las Vegas on a scenic helicopter tour over Hoover Dam and Lake Mead before descending to the bottom of the Grand Canyon. There, a waiting pontoon boat will take guests down the Colorado River on a smooth water float trip between the ancient stone walls. After returning from the river, guests will re-board the helicopter for a thrilling ascent to the rim of Grand Canyon West. Shuttle service will provide transportation to the world-famous Skywalk, where guests will receive a VIP pass for admission. A souvenir photograph is included before heading back to Las Vegas. Complimentary transfers will be offered to return you to your Strip hotel.
