Itinerary
Forego the busy national park crowds and experience rare sights in the heart of the Grand Canyon at Bar 10 Ranch. This exclusive tour flies guests to the Arizona Strip just miles from the unexplored northern rim of the Grand Canyon and provides an unmatched Grand Canyon National Park experience from a unique vantage point. Visitors will head off the beaten path on a Polaris Ranger and travel along a 4×4 trail through Whitmore Canyon and Lake Mead Recreation Area to the rim of the North Canyon. At 3,000 feet (880 m) above the Colorado River, the sheer drop from the rim at this area offers spectacularly rare views. Guests can take time to explore the unusual collection of desert vegetation and animal life found here, as well. Back at Bar 10 Ranch, relax and enjoy the staff’s hospitality and an authentic Dutch oven barbecue lunch.
Passengers fly to and from Bar 10 Ranch aboard one of our aircraft specifically designed for “flightseeing” while they enjoy the picturesque views over Hoover Dam, Lake Mead, and the mighty Colorado River. All airplanes are equipped with high wings that provide optimal viewing along with a comfortable climate-controlled cabin. As with all of our tours, this one comes complete with complimentary roundtrip shuttle service from Las Vegas to our Boulder City airplane terminal.
