    The helicopter ride is spectacular for the views it offers of the Grand Canyon. The only thing is that it takes 8 minutes to fly, not the 20 minutes they tell you it will take. 4 minutes to go, you stop for 20 minutes to take photos inside the canyon and another 4 minutes to return.

Grand Canyon West Rim by Helicopter

The tour meets at the West Rim helicopter terminal, where we'll climb on board the helicopter which will take us to see the Grand Canyon, with the very best views possible.

During the tour, we'll fly over the West Rim, the area closest to Las Vegas. We'll enjoy some unforgettable views of the reddish tones which dominate the canyon, and the altitude we reach will give you incredible views of the legendary Grand Canyon.

And the West Rim is sacred ground for the Hualapai people, who established their reserve here in 1883, and up until today Native Americans live there, practising many of their ancestral traditions, and keeping the traditional culture alive.

Then, to continue enjoying the Grand Canyon from a different perspective, we'll descend 3,500 feet to land at our exclusive landing base. Here you'll enjoy 20 minutes of free time to explore the area on your own.

Finally, we'll climb back on board the helicopter and head back to our initial departure point, where we'll return to our initial departure point, putting an end to our Grand Canyon West Rim tour.
