While both areas are beautiful and full of incredible sights and activities, the South Rim is known for its quintessential Grand Canyon views and stellar day hikes.<\/p>\n<p>The West Rim, however, is the prefered destination for those looking to enjoy a helicopter tour. It\u2019s also the closest option for visitors traveling from Las Vegas.

Opting for a West Rim tour will ensure you get the biggest nag for your buck.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Grand Canyon Hours<\/h3>\n<p>The Grand Canyon is open every day of the year, including major holidays. The Grand Canyon National Park (South Rim) is open 24 hours a day. In general, the South Rim is far more crowded than Grand Canyon West. However, even the West Rim gets packed around mid-day, from 11 am to 2 pm.<\/p>\n<p>Grand Canyon West is open daily from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, October through March, and from 7:00 am to 7:00 pm, April through September.<\/p>\n<h3>Best Time to Go<\/h3>\n<p>One of the great things about the Grand Canyon, is that no matter what time of the year you visit, it\u2019s always a good time! With that being said, spring and fall are the best times to visit in terms of pleasant weather. During this time, precipitation is light with daytime temperatures peaking in the upper-80s and mid-90s.<\/p>\n<p>In the summer, the weather can get uncomfortably hot, with daytime highs reaching well over 100\u00b0F. In addition, summer is the park\u2019s peak season, meaning you\u2019ll have to share the best view points with all the other tourists who also want to get that perfect photo. Winters can get quite cold, but the snow gives the canyon a magical feel and crowds are at their absolute lowest.<\/p>\n<h3>What to Bring<\/h3>\n<p>No matter when you visit, be sure to bring lots water per person, sunscreen, sunglasses and layers, in case the weather changes.<\/p>\n<h3>Flying with Children<\/h3>\n<p>Children under 2 years can sit on the lap of an adult during all helicopter tours. You will be required to present a birth certificate for confirmation of age. Passengers under 18 years of age are required to fly with an adult.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"15\">Getting To Grand Canyon<\/h2>\n<p>Most helicopter tours leaving from Las Vegas include hotel pick-up and drop-off.
