Grand Canyon air tours are a thrilling introduction
to America's most remarkable scenic wonder.
It's vastness and greatness—its astonishing
beauty—are captured in each panoramic
view from your air conditioned Vistaliner.
If your time is limited, you'll be especially
pleased you chose a Grand Canyon air tour.
"I've
been to the Grand Canyon several times before
and gone to the overlooks, even did a little
hiking. I thought I knew what to expect. Wow!
I just couldn't believe how awesome the view
was from the air, and the enormity of it.
You can see everything at once. You just can't
get that looking from the rim."
Grand
Canyon Airlines has flown millions of
enthralled visitors since 1927, and the price
is less than you might think: their
Grand Discovery 40-50 minute air tours
start at $89 adult/$59 child. Beginning from
the Grand Canyon South Rim, the flight makes
a great circle east, north, and west, capturing
breathtaking views along the snaking Colorado
River, the serene beauty of the East Rim,
the large Ponderosa Pine forests, and the
cascading canyons on the west.

If you have only
one day, but you want a taste of it all, mix
it up with a Four-in-One
Tour that encompasses plane, helicopter,
boat and bus. Leaving from Las Vegas, fly
above the magnificent Hoover Dam and rugged
desert landscape over spectacular Grand Canyon
vistas and Haulapai Indian Country to the
West Airport Terminal. Board a helicopter
and soar like an eagle down between the steep
cliffs to the Grand Canyon floor far below.
There you'll embark on a leisurely pontoon
boat ride down the Colorado River sandwiched
by the earthy red and gold walls of Quartermaster
Canyon. Next board a bus for snapshot views
at nearby scenic overlooks before your return
by plane.
If you are staying
at a Las Vegas hotel and want a quick (3 hour)
getaway, take the Grand
Canyon Highlights Air Tour with transportation
from your hotel to the terminal, and return
after your sightseeing adventure is complete.

looking for a quick aerial overview or a multi-faceted
exploration of the Grand Canyon with a merge
