5 Tips: Awesome Las Vegas Helicopter Rides To Grand Canyon

By Beth Adams


Vegas is the ultimate vacation getaway because there are so many fun things to do in the city. And it is pretty close to the Grand Canyon too, so you can book a thrilling helicopter tour of the natural wonder from Vegas. Helicopter tours come with a variety of options, so here are five tips to helps you plan the best adventure.

Tip One: Book A Deluxe Helicopter Tour

Looking at all of the options available, you will find both deluxe and basic Grand Canyon tours from Las Vegas. If you can't seem to find the true benefit of either package, then let me tell you that deluxe is the way to go. For a slight increase in ticket price, you will receive a true VIP experience. Deluxe tours provide a limousine shuttle service, which sets the tone of your adventure. The deluxe helicopter is larger and newer, and it has the best seat layout, with a huge viewing window that will allow you to take in all of what you see. As an added bonus, these tours fly directly from Vegas (basic tours leave from Boulder City), and include a flyover of the Las Vegas Strip.

Tip Two: Book A Tour That Lands At The Canyon

Landing tour, or flyover? A flyover offers some impressive sightseeing, but a landing tour is the most comprehensive option if you want a truly unforgettable adventure. Not only will you be able to experience a number of hiking trails and the Grand Canyon Skywalk if you land at the tip of the rim, but there's even a bottom landing tour where you can enjoy a Champagne picnic and a Colorado River boat tour. If you want to be right in the action, and truly experience the Grand Canyon, a landing tour from Las Vegas is the only way to do it.

Tip Three: Buy Your Tour In Advance

All tours of the Canyon are popular, but the helicopter tours are even more so. The seats fill up fast and often sell out. Therefore, you should buy your tour ahead of time to make sure you get seats on the day and time you want. Aim to have your seats locked in about two weeks ahead of time, but you can do it earlier too, buying your tour after you book your hotel room is a good idea. Then you will be all set and won't risk missing out on your tour because you didn't get it booked in time.

Tip Four: Book Your Seats Online

Booking online is the easiest way to ensure that your tickets are confirmed and that you get the best ticket prices. Booking online is also cheaper, because you won't have to pay any additional fees that are added on by travel agents or other third parties. Just make sure that you complete the transaction with your credit card, as this will ensure you get the best price and that everything is confirmed for the day that you plan to fly.

Tip Five: Book The Last Daily Flight

Want to experience the Grand Canyon when the sun is going down, and beautiful light dances across the ancient rock formations? If so, then you'll need to take the last tour of the day. Besides offering a truly unique time to view the Canyon, a sunset tour will also take you over The Strip when it looks its most impressive. Seeing Las Vegas from the air, at nighttime, is truly a breathtaking moment.

Wrapping Up

I hope these tips help you book the best helicopter tour of the Canyon. If you'll be in Vegas on vacation, you don't want to miss your chance to visit the Canyon, which is just a short flight away. Just keep the tips above handy so you can book the tour that will give you the best experience at the lowest price.
