When you want to see as much of the Grand Canyon as possible on your trip, take a plane tour because you will cover three-fourths of the entire park that way. You can choose between different types of plane tours. There are tours that allow you to land and those that are air only.
Both types give you a terrific experience. So it all comes down to what you most enjoy doing and how much money you want to spend. Here's details:
Grand Canyon Landing Flights
You can begin your landing tour in Las Vegas. You'll have several choices. One popular West Rim airplane tour includes a chopper flight down to the canyon's floor. Another exciting option is a float rip along the Colorado River.
Then there is a different landing tour that stays on top the rim and includes passes to the Grand Canyon Skywalk. Once you're out at the farthest point, look down, you'll be 70 feet out past the edge and 4,000 feet above the bottom!
There is a lot more to do on top of the rim and you can take a free shuttle ride wherever you want to go. Here are some points on the West Rim you will want to see:
Scenic Guano Point
The Famous Hualapai Ranch
The Indian Cultural Center
The Lookout At Eagle Point
At the South Rims, there are fewer options, but the ones available are fantastic, like the Jeep ride though the Slot Canyons at Antelope Canyon and a smooth water rafting trip on the Colorado River. Kids can participate as long as they're at least four years old.
Vegas Tours To The South Rim
One particular flight from Sin City to the South Rim is amazingly popular. One-way flight time is only an hour, and you'll see a big part of the National Park on your way to Grand Canyon National Park Airport (GCA) in Tusayan, AZ (just outside the Park's main gates). One of the tours comes with a 2.5 hour bus tour of the Park. You can add even more excitement to your tour by adding on a half hour chopper tour of the canyon.
Air Only Tours Of The Canyon
These Grand Canyon air tours fly 365 days a year out of Tuscany's GCA and out of Sin City. Unlike landing airplane rides, they stay in the air the entire time.
These are some of the points of interest you will see when your flight departs from Vegas:
The immense Hoover Dam
Beautiful Lake Mead
Grand Canyon West
The Colorado River
The famous Grand Canyon Skywalk
You will see plenty more amazing sights on your flight to and from the South Rim.
You plane tour of the South Rim lets you see the North, East, and South Rims of the Grand Canyon. The highlights include the following:
The highest point in the park called Imperial Point The Zuni Corridor
The widest part of the canyon called the Dragoon Corridor
The amazing Desert Watchtower
The beautiful Temple of Ra
Your flight is 45 minutes full of amazing sights. Plus, the airplane tour is very affordable.
The Best Time To Take A Flight
The best Grand Canyon aerial tours are in the morning. The air is clearer then so you have the best visibility and the air is calmer so you experience less turbulence. The timing of your flight is extra-important for summer flights. Of course, sunset flights are also spectacular!
Hopefully, reading this has helped you choose between a Grand Canyon landing tour or an air-only flight. Landing tours are fantastic because you get to see the Park from the ground and from the air. Even so, air-only tours are great for people who are short on time or have a limited budget. Any flight you choose will make memories you cherish for a lifetime.
