Itinerary
See the Grand Canyon and the Colorado River from unique perspectives with a helicopter flight over the landscape and a rafting adventure along the river. Soar over some of the Southwest's most beautiful natural and man-made sights, like Hoover Dam, before you tackle the Black Canyon by raft.
Your excursion begins with a shuttle ride from select Las Vegas hotels to the Boulder City Terminal near Las Vegas. There you will board a helicopter ride with narrated commentary that shares the history of the landmarks you soar above, from incredible feats of engineering like Hoover Dam and Lake Mead, one of the world's largest man-made lakes, to some of the steepest cliffs in America at the Black Canyon of Colorado.
After these beautiful landmarks, you can see the beauty of the ancient ravines of the Grand Canyon itself. Once you land on the canyon floor, visit the lands of the Hualapai Tribe and enjoy a light picnic and a champagne toast under a traditional ramada.
Next, get ready for adventure as you meet your rafting guide at the base of Hoover Dam. Your excursion down the Colorado River takes you for 11 exhilarating miles (17 km), immersing you in views of the extraordinary Black Canyon before stopping to enjoy lunch on a riverside beach.
Your journey culminates at the relaxing Willow Beach Marina, where you can take a breather before returning to Las Vegas.
* From December through February, the rafting portion only operates on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
