Full description

Experience the Grand Canyon like never before when you participate in the Skywalk Getaway with Helicopter and Boat Tour. The tour starts with complimentary transfers from the Las Vegas Strip to our air terminal in nearby Boulder City. Enjoy a thrilling helicopter ride to the Grand Canyon West, with aerial views of Hoover Dam, Lake Mead, and the Mojave Desert along the way. Your helicopter will land on the very bottom of the canyon next to the Colorado River! A pontoon boat will be waiting to transport you on a peaceful float up and down the Colorado River between the canyon walls. Enjoy the refreshing spray of the cool water and the sun shining down upon you. After experiencing the canyon from below, board the helicopter for a ride to the canyon's rim. You'll receive entry onto the world-famous Skywalk, a glass-bottomed bridge that extends 70 feet from the rim and offers an unprecedented view of the canyon. Enjoy the spectacular scenery before your return flight back to Las Vegas, where awaiting ground transportation will return you to the Las Vegas Strip.

There was a bit of a mix up and we had to change buses coz there were too many people, which they should have known about. However, it all went smoothly to the airport. Our helicopter developed a fault so we were delayed, but the company gave us free drinks and photos to apologise. I was glad we waited for another helicopter because Henry our pilot was wonderful. I cant praise him enough. He told us lots of interesting things on the flight. The boat rise was lovely but there are a lot of steps down to the dock and back up. I did struggle but everyone was so helpful and accommodating. The whole trip was stunning. My head was turning constantly to take it all in. It was stunning. I would highly recommend this trip, it's worth the climb up and down the stairs and if you get Henry, you are very lucky.
