Imperial Tour: South Rim

Touring several thousand feet through the air above the Grand Canyon on one of these helicopter tours is easily one of the most exciting vacation activities available. However, with a wide variety of tours, how do you know which one is right for you? That's why we've put together this handy guide so you can compare and contrast these aerial tours a bit easier.

Imperial Helicopter Tour

This tour is a relaxing trip through the Eastern portion of the canyon. With 50 minutes and the Colorado River 4,000 feet below you, you'll have plenty of moments to capture via camera. Passengers will also get a great view of the Painted Desert and other spectacular features. Tours are available throughout the day, which is convenient for travelers wanting a more flexible schedule.

Canyon Helicopter Expedition

If you need a more all encompassing tour of the area then this outdoor excursion is for you. This is a complete all day tour, although it does include a 30 minute helicopter tour of the canyons itself. A great feature of this tour is that you get to see the spectacular Oak Creek Canyon. Tour is about 9 hours in total length, so you'll have to set aside an entire day for it.

Havasupai Heli-Hiking Day

Although there are many tours throughout the Grand Canyon area, none are quite like this exclusive tour into the world of the Havasupai Indians. After a brief helicopter tour, you'll land in the picturesque canyon bottom, at a village boasting a legendary waterfall that gives an incredible oasis atmosphere to the entire trip.

North Canyon Tour

Planning to stay on the north side of the canyon does not leave you out of tour options, especially when you have beautiful tours through the Dragon Corridor like this one. Whether you want to sit back and relax as you take in the legendary beauty of the canyon walls or take as many pictures as possible, you'll definitely enjoy this tour.

After an airborne adventure a fine night's rest is probably looking pretty good, which is why we offer a number of hotels close to the rim. This includes the Holiday Inn Express and Quality Inn & Suites Canyon Plaza. It is your vacation, and with this in mind you can relax just the way you want.

Quality Inn & Suites Canyon Plaza - Grand Canyon, AZ
Very nice and friendly personnel and very helpful. They were able to answer our questions about the area. As the hotel was not full, they graciously upgraded us to a beautiful king room overlooking the pool area at no additional charge. Would definitely recommend this hotel to any of my friends. Good location as well. The continental breakfast was not one of the best I have experienced.
