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: Upgrade To The Deluxe Tour Version

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: Buy A Landing Tour For The Ultimate Experience

You also get to choose between a landing tour and a flyover tour of the Canyon. The air-only tour offers spectacular scenic viewing from the air, but if you want the full experience, you should land at the Canyon so you can see it up close too. You can land on top of the rim to hike along scenic trails and visit the Skywalk, or you can land on the Canyon floor and enjoy a Champagne picnic or a float tour along the Colorado River. So if you want the ultimate Canyon adventure, then booking a landing tour is the way to go.

Tip Three: Book Early

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: Buy Your Tour 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: Buy The Sunset Tour

Would you like to see the Canyon at sunset when it is at its most mysterious with lights dancing across the ancient rocks? Then you'll want to book the last tour for the day. Then you'll see the Canyon at its most unique and you'll also get to see The Strip when it springs to life at night. Vegas from the air at night is a beautiful sight.

Conclusion

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.
