Grand Canyon helicopter tours have become increasingly popular and affordable. Helicopter tours allow guests to peer out the window for a bird's eye view of the Grand Canyon. More than a half-million visitors take a Grand Canyon helicopter tour each year taking them to the Grand Canyon's South, West, and North Rims, as well as over the Las Vegas Strip. Most of these helicopter rides take off from the Grand Canyon Airport in the village of Tusayan located just outside the South Rim, Las Vegas, Phoenix, or Sedona, Arizona. By touring the Grand Canyon by helicopter, visitors can fly along the Rim, deep into the Canyon, or even land on the Canyon floor 4,000 feet below the Rim, offering unique and diverse perspectives of the Grand Canyon allowing a more full experience of its beauty and true grandeur.
Stunning Aerial Views: Enjoy breathtaking aerial views of the Hoover Dam, Lake Mead, and the Grand Canyon with 180 degrees of unrestricted viewing.
During a Grand Canyon helicopter tour, you can take in the breathtaking aerial vistas of the iconic Hoover Dam, the expansive Lake Mead, the majestic Grand Canyon, the Colorado River, and even the Grand Canyon Skywalk. Some tours even depart from Las Vegas, offering a one-of-a-kind sight of the Las Vegas Strip
No matter which Grand Canyon helicopter tour you choose, it will be fantastic! Seeing more attractions such as Hoover Dam and Grand Canyon Skywalk, or having a touchdown picnic at the bottom of the canyon are exciting, and the more you can see the better. Budget is a factor, but pick whichever tour fits within a price range that you are comfortable with. If money isn't an issue, go big! See it all! The longer the experience and flight the better, because a flight into the Grand Canyon truly is an experience of a lifetime. If you've got nervous jitters about being in a helicopter, the pilots are very helpful. Helicopter pilots explain security measures and protocol in pre-flight to help you get a better idea of the experience, and many pilots allow you to sit in the helicopter before launch to work out some of those pre-flight nerves. It is truly an exhilarating experience that is arguably the best way to see the Grand Canyon.
The price of each Grand Canyon tour is based on the type of tour and the length of your tour but ranges between $250 and $750 or more with combo trips. Grand Canyon helicopter companies often offer helicopter, airplane, ground, and boat tours of the Grand Canyon. Trips range from quick sightseeing tours to a trip where you land at the bottom of the Grand Canyon in a helicopter and then take a float trip on the Colorado River! The price of each tour will vary depending on the attractions and types of tours you want to experience during your time here.
