This air and river tour is one of the most exhilarating at the Grand Canyon West!
You will fly from the West Rim air terminal to a private landing spot on the Grand Canyon floor aboard a sightseeing helicopter taking in marvelous views en route. This is the only area in the entire Grand Canyon where you can land at the bottom!
Once at the bottom of the Canyon, take a short walk to the banks of the Colorado River for a pontoon boat ride down the Colorado River. This peaceful cruise offers great photography opportunities deep in the Grand Canyon. Your guide will provide information about the history and geology of the Colorado River basin. Once you return from the boat ride, walk back to the landing spot, and depart back to Grand Canyon West airport and rim's surface via helicopter.
After returning to the canyon's surface, passengers have the option to purchase a general admission pass, which features shuttle transportation to various lookout points along the canyon rim. Visit Hualapai Point, a Native American cultural center where you can shop for handmade gifts, grab a bite to eat, or try your hand at the shooting gallery. You can also visit Eagle Point, home to the Grand Canyon Skywalk, a 70-foot horseshoe-shaped glass-bottom bridge extending out from the canyon. There's also Guano Point, where the historic remains of an aerial tramway enhance the surreal vantage point, offer amazing views in every direction. The viewpoints here are some of the most dramatic in the entire canyon.
