Deluxe Grand Canyon West Rim Helicopter Tour with Optional Private Helicopter Landing
You'll visit Eagle Point, home to the Skywalk. Upgrade and add the Skywalk onto your tour. The Skywalk is a glass-bottom walking surface that suspends more than 4,000 feet (1219m) above the Grand Canyon and extends more than 70 feet (21m) out from the edge.
At Guano Point, visit Highpoint Hike, where you'll see breathtaking panoramic views of the Grand Canyon and Colorado River. Also see remnants of a historic tram that stretched 8,800 feet (2682m) across the canyon to a guano mine discovered in the 1930s. Visit the Hualapai Ranch where you can go horseback riding. Choose from several horseback riding options, including a 30-minute trail ride that takes you to the canyon rim or an arena ride (additional fee). Also at the ranch there is cowboy entertainment, wagon rides, roping demonstrations and more.
Finally, if you select the helicopter upgrade option, you’ll fly down to a private bluff at the bottom of the Grand Canyon. You'll descend and land 3,500 feet (1066m) below the rim where you will enjoy the mystique and grandeur of the Grand Canyon from an exclusive landing site only 300 feet (91 meters) above the mighty Colorado River. Enjoy this breathtaking setting and make sure to bring your camera for one-of-a-kind photo opportunities. The activity lasts approximately 40 minutes and features 20 minutes at the bottom of the canyon.
Please note: The listed price does not include a US $15 per person fuel surcharge, payable at the time of tour check-in

The tour was totally AWESOME. I so enjoyed the views, weather, staff, private tour landing, skywalk and everything else involved. The only issue I had which really was not an issues was when I booked the tour the comptuer stated it was 7 hours giving you more time to tour the scenery. The tour was actually only 5 hours ,8am takeoff from maverick headquarters and landing at 1 pm. The other issues, again not an issue to me personally, was that the tour was suppose to include a champagne toast which did not happen. The reason I mention this is because some people may complain about this saying the trip/tour was not as asvertised. Overall the trip was great. Our pilot Seth was very friendly and informative. I would recommed this trip to everyone. Walking in the bottom of the canyon was a once in a lifetime event and definetly should be on eveyone's bucket list. Again thanks for a great trip.
