Grand Canyon West Rim Helicopter Tours

Experience the adrenaline rush of a lifetime as you soar over the breathtaking landscapes of the Grand Canyon West Rim. Your aerial adventure will begin with transportation from the Las Vegas area via a luxury motorcoach or fixed-wing airplane. Once at the West Rim, you can board your state-of-the-art ECO-Star helicopter. These are the most advanced tour helicopters available and were designed with sightseeing in mind. Each EC-130 features forward-facing, theater-style seating to create an unobstructed 180-degree view during the Grand Canyon tour.

Your helicopter will whisk you almost a mile down to the canyon floor. You'll get to stand near the bank of the Colorado River and gaze up at the 4,000 feet of ancient stone walls surrounding you. At the West Rim, you can choose to pair your helicopter flight with a peaceful pontoon boat cruise along the Colorado River. You can also upgrade to skip the lines with a VIP pass to the world-famous Skywalk.

      Not sure what to wear? Layered clothing is recommended through the months of March to September, and winter clothing should be worn from October to mid-March.
