    Why You Shouldn’t Miss This

    The Grand Canyon is one of the world’s most impressive geological wonders. A two billion-year-old gorge eroded slowly by wind and water, the only way to fully take in the canyon’s grandeur is on a top to bottom tour! The West Rim is the only section of the Grand Canyon where you can fly to the bottom via helicopter. To reach the bottom otherwise requires days of rigorous hiking and climbing. A perfect solution for those pressed on time, soak up breathtaking views from the sky, check out the viewpoints along the rim, and explore the canyon floor - all in one day!

    Please note: Grand Canyon West is privately owned and operated by the Hualapai Tribe. A Legacy Tour Pass is required for entry to the West Rim. You will have the option to upgrade your helicopter tour with a Legacy Pass during checkout.
