Experience an unforgettable journey to the mighty Grand Canyon! Your adventure begins with complimentary pick up from your Las Vegas hotel.
Fly for 45 minutes in the safe and luxurious comfort of a million-dollar A-star helicopter, accompanied by music and pilot narration on your own personal two-way headset. Capture spectacular aerial views of Hoover Dam & Lake Mead.
Enjoy the views provided by the longest possible flight time through the Grand Canyon – fly for more than 40 miles, then land at a real working western ranch! Spend a little over 1 hour at the Grand Canyon West Ranch.
Hop onboard our horse-drawn wagon for a fun ride to the ranch house (included). After a western BBQ lunch, take an optional horseback riding tour (gentle enough even for beginners, not included and sells at $39.00 USD for 30-minutes).
Your approximate 35-minute return flight to Las Vegas features more amazing sights, including the famous Bowl of Fire, consisting of fire-red Jurassic-Age outcroppings of sandstone! Cap off the adventure with a sweeping flight over the Las Vegas Strip!
After this amazing Western adventure, we'll return you to your downtown Las Vegas & Strip hotel.

We all loved the experience. However, we did feel time pressure - hadn't finished eating when urged to sign for the horseback ride. Then, after the gunfight, had to drop everything because the helicopter was on its way - no time to take photos. I appreciate that flight schedules have to be kept, but maybe the overall tour time should be extended by about 30 minutes to allow people to draw breath. The flight to and from the Grand Canyon was fantastic.

The experience was out of this world. The Captain that we had was great at giving us all the info we needed when we were flying. Landing at the ranch was very good and all that was involved there made us feel very welcome. If you go, you must go horseback riding. We have horses back home but wanted to experience the cowboy riding and were not disappointed. All in all we had a great time and would tell everyone to go there.

Extremely good value for money, the photos we got from the air were incredible. The pilot was very knowledgeable and informative. The Ranch House was a real treat, I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone I know going to Las Vegas.

This was a perfect fit to get to do something special in Las Vegas. It was kind of three trips in one. First you get a helicopter ride, which by it self was fun. Then you get to see the Grand Canyon. And lastly you get a taste of the Cowboy life.
The only downer was that they had overbooked the tour and had to tell customers that they would not be able to take them out. We were able to go but I felt sorry for those others as the driver told them it was not going to happen. I think they were ok with it because they upgraded their tour for the next time, but I would have been very angry no matter what the resolution was going to be. They pushed the video of the trip very hard, and although we had already decided on getting it, it was kind of annoying. It puts a live recording on the front of their basic explanation of what the experience was going to be. I would have like a bit more real time videos of us in it then what was actually there, but I guess you can’t have everything.
Understand these were just minor things overall the experience was OUTSTANDING and I would go again.

I was traveling around the states for 4 weeks and this was the highlight if my trip. I have always wanted to visit a ranch as I have a great interest in the lifestyle and this tour more than lived up to my expectations. With good food, friendly staff, enjoyable flight etc. This was an unforgettable experience and I wish all involved the best of luck in the future! Hope to go back soon to stay a bit longer!!!

The pilot was very amusing interesting, and very familar with the terrain. The ranch was not worth visiting; it was more like a run down motel site. We waited for 45 minutes in the sun to see nothing, but I'd return to do the Skywalk and helicopter ride any day! Don't buy the video, as it's not worth $10, let alone $60. This is a great ride, though, through the Canyon.

We found the helicopter trip and our pilot amazing, however we went to the ranch and were left there for 2 hours, after eating lunch 10 minutes there is nothing else to do and in 110 degree weather it is rather a lot of waiting around. The Grand Canyon and helicopter itself however were amazing and would definately recommend to anyone.

I had the most amazing morning at the Grand Canyon, and the tour was brilliant from start to finish. I'd definately do it again. Thank you.

This was a fantastic trip. I would have liked to have walked out on the glass walkway, but this trip was great. I would have liked to stay the night at the ranch when we found out about sleeping in the tepees but were not informed up front. The horseback riding was great, and I would recomend this trip to everyone.
