The Grand Canyon Helicopter Tour is a unique and exciting way to experience the Grand Canyon. There are multiple options and vendors, but we love the ones that land in the canyon so you can appreciate the majestic walls of the canyon in a pretty private setting.

You will enjoy a narrated helicopter flight over Lake Mead and the Hoover Dam before arriving at the Grand Canyon’s West Rim. Descend 4,000 feet to the Canyon floor where you’ll enjoy light picnic served with champagne and approximately 30 minutes to explore before returning to Las Vegas.

Canyon Heli Tour

Hoover Dam is an iconic monument – concrete arch-gravity dam located on the border between the states of Arizona and Nevada. The dam was built during the Great Depression and completed in 1936. It was named after President Herbert Hoover and was designed to control the Colorado River and provide water and electricity to the southwestern United States.

Driving through the dam is already a scenic experience, but you can also take guided tours of the Hoover Dam, which include a visit to the power plant, observation deck, and the surrounding area. There are also several hiking trails in the area, as well as opportunities for boating and fishing on Lake Mead, the reservoir created by the dam.
