Description

Discover the Grand Canyon from the air and from the ground. Your activity will be organised in the following way:

  1.  Flight from Las Vegas to the Grand Canyon West Rim

A shuttle will collect you from your hotel and take you to Boulder City Airport (located around 30mn from Las Vegas). Then board a tourist plane with oversized viewing windows that provide maximum visibility. Once in the air, you will go to Grand Canyon West Rim and fly over the Hoover Dam and Lake Lead. You will be able to identify these different sites with the help of an audio guide (available in 15 languages – see “good to know”)

       2.   Trip to the Grand Canyon West Rim: free visit by foot and in a shuttle

After having landed in the Grand Canyon, you will have around 3 hours of free time. The shuttle service will lead you to the site’s most beautiful places: Eagle Point and Guano Point. At Guano Point you will enjoy a 360-degree view over the Canyon!

At Eagle Point you will be able to cross the Skywalk footbridge (tickets available on site for $35). This glass structure is raised 21 metres / 70 feet above the Rim and 200 metres / 700 feet above the Colorado river. It offers an unmatched view and allows you to experience the great immensity of the Grand Canyon.

Your plane will then take you back to Las Vegas where the shuttle bus will return you to your hotel.
