Itinerary

Dive into the hidden beauty of the Grand Canyon floor with this Grand Canyon helicopter tour. This excursion is an exclusive pass to travel by road, by air and by Colorado River. Your limitless journey begins in a Tour Trekker custom-built for luxurious comfort. Gaze outside the window for instant views of the glittering waters of Lake Mead as you head toward the Grand Canyon. As you continue to cross the Mojave Desert towards your Grand Canyon helicopter tour, you enter a thriving Joshua Tree forest. These spike-leafed evergreens grow nowhere else in the world. These abundant Joshua Trees seem to wave as you zoom towards your magnificent destination. Welcome to the Grand Canyon. Are you ready for your Grand Canyon helicopter tour? Board your luxury aircraft that lowers you 4,000 feet down into the canyon. This descent is a thrilling trip back in time, offering panoramic views of six million years of erosion through four geologic eras. Every angle seems to unveil its own shape and hue as you descend deeper and deeper into the canyon. The adventure doesn’t stop there. Once your helicopter lands, you’ll board an excursion boat for a 10-minute ride down the mighty Colorado River. Be camera-ready. Your ride across the Colorado River provides picturesque views of red cliffs, lush vegetation, and towering rock formations hidden from view back at the rim. Keep a keen eye open for amazing photo opportunities. Hungry? After your Grand Canyon helicopter tour lands back on high ground your professional tour guide is ready to show you around to more viewpoints at the West rim of the Grand Canyon. You will love the views at Eagle Point and Guano Point and you’ll have time to enjoy a tasty BBQ lunch. The Grand Canyon Skywalk experience is not included in the tour price. If you wish to participate in the Grand Canyon Skywalk experience, you may purchase tickets through us at the time of booking for $25 per person. This daring glass and steel bridge walkway extends 70 feet beyond the rim, boasting unseen views of the Grand Canyon floor 4,000 feet below. A Grand Canyon helicopter tour is incomplete without immersing in the Native American culture. Introduce yourself to the Hualapai legacy by exploring the Hualapai Village and shopping at the Hualapai Market. Don’t miss dance performances and story-told legends brought to life by the Hualapai Nation. On your return from the Grand Canyon there is time for a quick stop on the Arizona side of the Hoover Dam. Capture with your eyes and cameras the wondrous beauty of the Hoover Dam and the Colorado River. Pose for a timeless photo with a backdrop of mountainous rock looming over turquoise waters. Your tour guide will insist on taking your picture.
