Tour / Activity
My Rating: 
Location: Las Vegas, Nevada
My Review: The perfect tour for everybody with a tight schedule. You really get a glimpse of what Grand Canyon has to offer. As used to with Viator everything was perfection, from pick up to heli flight to information on what to do and how to get around. Thanks a lot.

Las Vegas Tandem Skydiving
Tour / Activity
My Rating:
Location: Las Vegas, Nevada
My Review: As a first time jumper I read a lot of reviews before I finally booked this. There are also videos posted on youtube that show how professional they are. So I already had a good feeling. Pick up is at the Tropicana at 7:30am. On the way to the jump-site you have to fill out liability waiver forms and watch a safety video. Once you arrive they take care of the formalities one by one. You then get your suit and instructions about where and how to hold your hands and feet, how to exit the plane and what to do on the way down and during landing. Once you have been partnered with your instructor, you enter the plane. So on the way up, you don't experience anything different than you would on a normal flight. You only realize the difference once the instructor starts to get the gear in final position. Again they explain everything once more and make sure that you remember the important points. Your instructior gets you into the exit position and for the first time you see the earth from a distance of 3,200m without glass in between. A split second later you exit the plane and the adrenaline rush begins. The first few seconds your body has to process the unbelievable experience and the thin air by breathing very fast. Once you get "comfortable" you can start to enjoy this truly amazing and wonderful experience. Again my instructor was more than helpful in every aspect the whole way up and down. I never felt unsafe. Instead of waiting for the included drop off, I opted for the $20 limo to save time. I will 100% jump again with this company the next time I am in Vegas.

Las Vegas Gun Store and Firing Range
Tour / Activity
My Rating:
Location: Las Vegas, Nevada
My Review: Visiting The Gun Store is an amazing adventure. As I have never fired a gun in my life, I was amazed by the unexpected experience. I went with the Deuce bus and it was really easy to get there. Once you enter you are surrounded by the professional staff that makes it really easy and comfortable for someone who travels alone like me. I was assisted in choosing the guns and the targets. I got great tips by the instructor. The many hits where the icing on the shooting-cake. All in all highly recommended.

Grand Canyon West Rim Deluxe Sunset Helicopter Tour
Tour / Activity
My Rating:
Location: Las Vegas, Nevada
My Review: This trip is simply fantastic. Pick up was at 3.30pm and drop off was around 7.30pm. The staff was unbelievably helpful and friendly. The pilot was a great source for additional information once we where down in the Canyon. We had nice little champagne dinner. The stunning views on the way back to Vegas into the sunset are beyond fantastic. The Strip is already fully neon-lit and it's an unbelievable sight. So all in all. A great trip.

Skip the Line: Grand Canyon Skywalk Express Helicopter Tour
Tour / Activity
My Rating:
Location: Las Vegas, Nevada
My Review: This trip is a truly memorable experience. Traveling alone I opted for the early morning departure, so I would be able to make the most of my day. Pick up was at 6am and I returned at 10am. That time of day you wouldn't need the express option, as nobody is there anyway, but for the other departure times it's surely a big plus. The whole trip was perfectly organized. The staff is very friendly and helpful. You learn a lot about Vegas history and on both ways you have a great view of the area. I will not even attempt to talk about the Skywalk, as you really have to experience this architectural wonder yourself, it can't be described. On your return you have a great view of the Strip. So all in all, a great trip.
