Perfect way to see the Grand Canyon

This is a trip to the West Rim of the Grand Canyon - you take a small bus - a small plane - small helicopter - pontoon boat and get to see/walk the Canyon from all sides! It's truly AMAZING! Pilots and tour support are all very professional. Dress in layers - wear good walking/hiking shoes. There is much to see. Small note: this is Papillion Helicopter - I had some confusion when the bus picked us up - since there are so many tours out of Vegas.
Enjoyable tour

Amazing Experience. We just did the plane ride and SkyView tickets which would don't have to wait incline if you purchase them. It's an amazing experience even though I'm afraid of heights. I would recommend everyone try this!

Thrilling flight from Boulder City to the Grand Canyon West and onto the Skywalk. Brilliant views of the canyon when coming in to land and taking off.

Trip was an amazing experience. Helicopter ride and boat rider worthwhile although the boat ride is somewhat short, but it does get you right into the canyon. Highlight was the.Guano point, which has the best views and the most worthwhile lookout point. Save your money and do not bother doing the skywalk. You have to wait in line, the cost at $32 for an adult isn’t worth it and is a commercial scheme to sell you pictures. You’re not allowed to bring your camera onto the skywalk so that they can take pictures of you and sell them to you. Avoid it at all cost. Waste of money in time. You can get a pretty good view without going on the skywalk and it isn’t the best for you anyways. Captain Michael and Jessie were great. Everything went smoothly and I highly recommend it.
