The Grand Canyon of course was awesome!! As for the tour experience, it was good, nothing too grand about it. The plane ride over the canyon and the dam was in a smaller plane than I thought we would have. So beware, seated in the back may cause some nausea. The plane dips down a lot. Food was OK; it served it's purpose. We were very disappointed that there were no shopping. I thought I would at least be able to look at some jewelry from the Indians.

This is a fabulous trip starting with an sightseeing air tour over the Las Vegas area and Grand Canyon. There is a bus trip, after landing at the West Rim, to the skywalk and then lunch and more time to walk and sightsee at the Grand Canyon. There is some dead time waiting for buses and planes to leave and like many tours some people are late and make the rest of us wait. You should probably add an hour to the stated return time.

The flight was good; I liked having the headphones and recording to know what you were flying over. The Skywalk was amazing...everyone should do this at least once.

We thought we would be riding over the Grand Canyon in the plane. That was disappointing. We rode over Hoover Dam and Lake Mead and got off at the Grand Canyon. If I had known, I would have take the helicopter ride. The group that flew with us to the Grand Canyon also took the helicopter ride and said it was beautiful. I would recommend the early tour because later it really gets hot out there.

Absolutly stunning! It's everything you imagine the Grand Canyon to be... only BIGGER!

An amazing experience with breathtaking views. I would advise that you use your meal voucher at Eagle Point, as this is the best place for service and the food was better! A little disappointed that there was no barbecue as stated in the tour information.

Good value compared to other offerings. Excluding getting from the hotel to the airport and back again afterwards the trip was about 4.75 hours. 1.75 hours in the air spectacular views but no commentary on what we were seeing and 3 hours at the Canyon itself. This may seem a lot but being bussed around queuing for both the Skywalk overrated and lunch very average meant there was little free time to walk and explore.

Just OK. Pick up coach was late, we had to wait 45 minutes in the stifling heat in an underground hotel lobby. No apology either which made it worse. Shuttle bus to airport takes approx 30 mins. The flight from the airport was also delayed! Unfortunately we could not get booked on early flight so the trip took up most of the day. The pilot was very young, did nothing to dispel the concerns expressed by a worried passenger. Plus he never spoke the entire flight. We had great views but some commentary would have been nice! Hoover Dam, Lake Mead, Boulder City etc. went unnoticed as there was no narration. Barbecue not what we expected but we didn't go hungry! Plane very old. Some information is given on headphones but mine were broken! Grand Canyon is fabulous, well worth a visit but if you can, pay the extra and take the helicopter ride which flies into the rim of the Grand Canyon. Plus you get picked up in a limo and there is less travel time as you don't have to travel to and from the airport. The helicopter ride also takes you over the Vegas strip which the airplane does not. Skywalk good, worth a visit even if it's just to say you did it!

I thought it's a door to door pick up at my hotel but it's not. Almost an hour waiting at the departure lounge in the early morning which is absolutely waste of time. Thought there's a tour guide too, actually only a pilot accompanied. A bit disappointed but still ok.
