Enjoy a day tour from Las Vegas to the Grand Canyon’s South Rim and a drive on Route 66 in a deluxe motorcoach. On your way to the South Rim, make your first stop at the Lake Mead Overlook to enjoy spectacular views of this unique desert lake and landscape, created by the construction of Hoover Dam.  Travel through the Mojave Desert, cross over the Hoover Dam via the famous Mike O’Callaghan-Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge, and along iconic Route 66. See the dramatic scenery change as you gain 5,000 feet of elevation. Desert plants and animals change to scenery and wildlife from the Colorado Rockies, with 100-foot tall pines, giant elk, and mule deer.  Once you arrive in Grand Canyon National Park, you’ll have 3 hours to explore the deepest and widest part of the canyon at the South Rim. Your driver will set up your picnic lunch which you can enjoy while taking in the views and learning about various things you can do to make the most of your time in the park. Enjoy popular attractions such as the El Tovar, Hopi House, Kolb Photo Studio, and the Bright Angel Trail — your guide will fill you in on all the details about what you can do and see.
