Really recommend this tour, was worth every cent. I am both height sick and have a fear of falling so when the pilot said to sit in the front, I was a little concerned. A few times I just closed my eyes (like when we flew over our hotel) but a few minutes in I was fine and all fear left me as I was mesmerised by the beauty of Lake Mead and the Grand Canyon.
There isn't alot of time to spare when you arrive at the Skywalk so if you were hoping to go to the teepee or see an Indian show, you won't have time. Life's a trade-off, to get front-of-line to the Skywalk was great and the photos came out amazing.

Do not hesitate...book this tour immediately!!after months of research and reading reviews!i picked this tour as my partners birthday surprise.it was Amazing.i was quite anxious that it went smoothly as it was all booked in uk beforehand but we were picked up on time....staff were extremely friendly...the light aircraft ride and helicopter were fantastic and very memorable.we had 3 hours on arrival to do helicopter boat ride and dinner was great ...hot food overlooking the grand canyon :-) do not bother with skywalk,,,you have exactly the same view if not better.....and you would push yourselves for time slightly if you did the skywalk.extremely good value.i have used Viator before for holiday to Prague and will continue to use Viator in the future

Doing what: Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam Day Trip from Las Vegas with Optional Skywalk
Why not leave Vegas behind for a day to experience the thrill of nature at the Grand Canyon? I thoroughly enjoy the trip, Hoover Dam was a short stay, but I took some great photos. Lastly, I recommend the SKYWALK... Grand Canyon ROCKS!

A must see!! Tour was great. Only problem was apparently everyone decided to travel to the Grand Canyon on this day. Record crowds!! Hoover Dam (short visit; 10 min) was awesome. Everything was organized; there were long lines, but worth wait. There are security checks and you can't take phone or camera onto skywalk. They have professional photogaphers who do a great job of posing and snapping photos for you to buy. Be aware, bathrooms are not plentiful on the way to the Canyon use the tour bus facilities or wait till you get to the Canyon, esp females. The food at the Guano site as well as the view was the best!! Our Bus driver, Gene was an excellent source of info; wish we did tour at beggining of Vegas trip instead of end, cause he gave us great tips and info that we will use if back in Vegas again

A fantastic 40th birthday treat for my boyfriend! Our pilot was cool, calm and collected which put us completely at ease. It's almost like VIP treatment once you land at the Grand Canyon and the Skywalk is amazing! You also get to stand right near the edge outside!!! This trip was well worth the money as you get to fly over the strip on the way back too. Music in the helicopter was great as well, played 'Indiana Jones' just as you were flying up to, and over, the edge of the Canyon....superb!

The plane trip to the Grand Canyon was really interesting, flying over the Hoover Dam and Boulder City. The views at the Canyon were spectacluar and the skywalk was a really worthwhile experience. Overall, an excellent tour and highly recommended.

Very early start to the day but that was more than compensated for by the trip!
Grand Canyon skywalk was an amazing experience. Nowhere was over crowded but this was due to the time of year that we visited.
We were very well looked after all day; our coach driver was entertaining and informative:)

This tour was amazing! Worth getting up early for. Flying in the small plane we were able to get a birds eye view of all the sights: Boulder City, Lake Mead and the Grand Canyon itself, breath taking. This is a must, not forgetting the Skywalk. Photos very expensive though .

Anthony was our driver/tour guide and he was great! Kept us entertained the whole time with his humour and information and facts of Las Vegas and the Grand Canyon. We had plenty of time to explore Eagle point, Skywalk, Guano Point and Hualapai Ranch. Also plenty of stops to and from the GC.

Doing what: Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam Day Trip from Las Vegas with Optional Skywalk
From the moment we got on the bus to leaving the bus, I have to say the trip was 5*****. Our guide Was Thomas, and have to say he was really funny, and so informative. He was really interesting, and have to say I learnt alot. I Went on the trip with my sister, and there were a real mix of people, which is always good. We didn't do the skywalk, but feel we got to see just good as view. Another bonus is the lunch is included, they give you a coloured voucher per person, and you can redeem at one of the three places you visit. We ate at the ranch and had no complaints.
The actual Grand Canyon it self, what can I say, it was absolutely amazing!!!! The sort of landmark you must see atleast once in your life.
I would highly recomend this trip, and its a bonus if your Thomas...you'll be laughing alot.

Our joint best excursion in Las Vegas (along with the Rat Pack). I am terrified of heights but still managed to do the Skywalk. The Grand Canyon is spectacular and worth the long trip by bus. The Hoover Dam was very impressiive but not quite as big as I thought it would be.

Doing what: Ultimate Grand Canyon 4-in-1 Helicopter Tour
Absolutely fantastic is all I can say. We chose the afternoon trip which on the return to Vegas gave us a spectacular view of the Strip with the last rays of the sun glinting off all the buildings. Our Limo picked us up on time, the staff at the airport were polite, friendly and the checking in procedures were easy and very efficient. The flight out to the canyon took no time at all and our pilot gave us some great background information on the areas that we flew over. Being a music buff, the choice of music that played was perfect - very West Coast californian and very appropriate, so well done to the person who chose it. On landing at the Caynon, everthing ran smoothly. Would have to say the only bit we were a bit disappointed by was the Skywalk. When we arrived, it was great that there were not too many people however the building is incomplete - it looks like it is still in progress, we were told that it had been that way for a number of years...hmm for the money we paid perhaps not worth it. The Grand Canyon is grand enough with doing the walk. The food for lunch was plentiful and tasty. Don't forget though to bring sunscreen and drink lots of water. As it was my daughters first trip to the Canyon and indeed first helipcopter trip - well worth the money, well done.

Great trip. Helicopter is the only way to do the Grand Canyon. Chuck the pilot was knowledgeable with a very pleasant personality. Glad we did the early tour and avoided the bus tours at the skywalk.
