The Whole Package

Landing tours are all-inclusive and come with:

• Hotel pick up & drop off
• Champagne picnic / Lunch
• West Rim park permits, fees and taxes
• Professional pilot-guide

The only package where you will face additional charges is the ranch landing tour, wherein all activities (kayak, horse riding, etc.) are extra.

Free shuttle service is available for all major Las Vegas resort-hotels. You must confirm your flight 24 hours in advance. It’s at this time where you will be told specifically where you will be picked up.

Can you bring your own alcoholic beverages? Sadly, no. FAA regulations prohibit it. However, you can bring non-alcoholic beverages, which must identified at check-in.

Looking for a South Rim helicopter tour from Las Vegas? There isn’t one. The distance from Vegas to the National Park is too far. If your determined to do this, you must take this airplane-helicopter combo. The flight is 45 minutes and includes a rim-to-rim helicopter flight and 2.5 hour ground tour. Incredibly, this package has you back in Vegas by end of day!

48 Hours? Don’t Do It

I get asked all the time if it’s cheaper to purchase helicopter tours in Las Vegas. The answer is a resounding “NO.” Tour operators and the concierge desks at all major hotels know you want to fly same-day or the next. Expect a huge mark up. But that’s the least of your problems. Why? Because it all likelihood you won’t get a flight. This is because helicopter tours are extremely popular and sell out. The only people who have a sliver of a chance of booking a chopper flight within 48 hours are solo travelers, and even they often get bumped.

Ride the Sky!

Grand Canyon helicopter landing tours are definitely your ticket to fun and thrills. Rafting, the Skywalk, boating…there’s a terrific adventure for everyone. Isn’t it time you made a pact to break from the Strip and fly the canyon? If you do, I’m confident you’ll come back amazed and satisfied.
