Grand Canyon Helicopter Explorer
There is no better way to get the full Grand Canyon experience than with a bird's eye view from a helicopter with the Grand Canyon Helicopter Explorer. This tour begins when your tour guide picks you up from your Las Vegas area hotel and drives you to the Boulder City airport terminal. From there, you will board a comfortable and safe helicopter and depart for the skies. Enjoy breathtaking, panoramic views of such landmarks as the Hoover Dam and Lake Mead, as well as of Black Canyon, extinct volcanoes, and Fortification Hill. As the helicopter approaches the Grand Canyon's west rim, you will be able to see the tribal lands of the Hualapai as well as the famous Skywalk, Eagle Point, and Guano Point. Far below at the bottom of the canyon, you can see the Colorado River wind its way through the canyon. Then you will head over to the beautiful El Dorado Canyon, a large mining area known that reached its peak in the mid to late 1800s.
The helicopter will touch down for a brief time at the floor of El Dorado, where you will have a few minutes to take in the ambiance of the Old West and sip on an glass of champagne. Then you will climb back into the helicopter and take to the skies again, carrying with you wonderful memories of the brilliant scenery that will stay with you for a lifetime. If you choose, additional tour add-ons are available, include an ATV, Jeep, or horseback tour into the canyon. The Grand Canyon Helicopter Explorer is a wonderful and exciting way to create lasting memories of the Grand Canyon on your trip to the Las Vegas area.
