Enjoy panoramic aerial views of Las Vegas, Boulder City, Hoover Dam and Lake Mead as you fly from Las Vegas to the West Rim of the Grand Canyon. Window seats on the plane are guaranteed for all passengers on the 40 minute flight.
Upon arrival at the Hualapai Indian Nation Airport you will board a jet powered helicopter to descend 4,000 feet decent below the rim to the canyon floor. Here you will join a pontoon river boat for a relaxing trip on the mighty Colorado River as you admire the colorful canyon walls from nearly a mile below the rim.
After your 20 minute boat ride you will board the helicopter once more to ascend back to the top of the rim where you have time at leisure to visit the West Welcome Center, and use the hop on hop off shuttle bus which operates in the area. During the short trips between each stop, a Hualapai Indian driver/guide will tell you about the local land owners and the history of the park.
You can visit Guano Point for fantastic views of the Colorado River and where a casual barbecue lunch will be served. Explore the Indian Village at Eagle Point to gain a further insight of the native Indian culture, or take an optional stroll on the Grand Canyon Skywalk (not included, approximately USD25.00), the newest attraction to the West Rim.
Sit back after your day of sightseeing on your return flight to Las Vegas knowing you have experienced the Grand Canyon West Rim from all angles!
