Grand Canyon West Rim Bus, Helicopter, And Boat Tour

Best Grand Canyon ground, air, and water trip? Easy. It's the one that bundles a bus ride to the Grand Canyon West with a flight to the bottom topped with a float ride down the Colorado River. If you're ready for big time adventure, this mega-tour is for you!

Grand Canyon Bus, Helicopter, And Boat!

Depart aboard luxury bus to West Rim. Hoover Dam photo stop. Arrive at canyon and transfer to helicopter. Descend 4,000 feet to the base. Enjoy a Champagne picnic. Explore the surrounding area (ask the guide to show you the petroglyphs!). Stroll upstream to pontoon boats and take 20-minute float trip. Return to chopper for ascent to top. Enjoy a barbecue lunch prepared by the Hualapai Indian tribe. Sightsee the West Rim before driving back to Vegas.

Grand Canyon by Bus

The tour leaves in the morning aboard a state-of-the-art luxury bus. These coaches sport large cabins, XL seats (plenty of personal space and legroom), personal A/C stations, clean restrooms, and multiple TVs. It's a 120-miledrive from Vegas to the West Rim. Go on one of these "kings of the road" and time flies.

Grand Canyon Helicopters

It's amazing where these choppers can fly! Most likely you'll take an EcoStar 130. Its cabin is 25% larger than conventional helicopters. It also comes with theater-style seating, wraparound windshields, and a Fenestron rotor for an ultra quiet and smooth ride.

The descent is the best 10 minutes of your life. It's one giant canyon carve. You zip past odd escarpments, crumbling buttes, and surreal spires before alighting on a dirt helipad. This is where few men have gone before. Toast the improbable with Champagne under an authentic Indian Ramada.

Rafting the Grand Canyon

The pontoon boats are docked upstream. These are professional grade watercraft that can seat up to 19 people. This is a smooth-water float trip. There are no rapids or white water. Kids four years of age and up are welcome. I suggest you bring the following:

• Water
• Sunscreen
• ChapStick
• River sandals/water booties
• Light long-sleeve shirt
• Hat
• Dry set of clothes (not totally necessary)
• Tip for guide

The river guides know the canyon like the back of their hand. Feel free to ask they questions. They are also trained in CPR and first aid.

Grand Canyon West

This area of the Grand Canyon is owned and managed by the Hualapai Indian Tribe. Facilities include an airstrip, gift shop, and the Grand Canyon Skywalk, which lets you walk 70 feet past the edge! Other sights include:

• Guano Point
• Eagle Point
• Indian Cultural Village
• Colorado River (you'll appreciate it even more from the top)
