Las Vegas to the Grand Canyon West

There is no shortage of stunning views from the West Rim of the Grand Canyon. Yor flight from Las Vegas features aerial views of Hoover Dam, Lake Mead, and the Mojave Desert before the canyon comes into view. You can then descend 4,000 feet below the canyon's surface to a secluded plateau near the bank of the Colorado River. Toast champagne between the ancient stone walls, explore the scenery and take photos, and even enjoy a pontoon boat ride on the Colorado River.

If your tour includes ground time on the surface of the West Rim, you'll receive an All Access Pass which includes shuttle service to visit famous lookout points like Eagle Point and Guano Point, a trip to the Native American cultural center Hualapai Point, and entry onto the world-famous Skywalk glass-bottomed bridge.
