Grand Canyon Helicopter Tour from Las Vegas - 90-Minute Flight into the Canyon & Hoover Dam

Fly from Las Vegas by helicopter
into the Grand Canyon

This is a round-trip helicopter flight of about 90 minutes from Las Vegas to the Grand Canyon. After pickup from your Las Vegas hotel in a Mercedes-Benz vehicle, you ride about 30 minutes to the VIP heliport next to the Las Vegas Strip.

The helicopter seats a small group of up to 6. During the flight, your pilot shares facts about the geography and history of the Grand Canyon and the surrounding area in English.

Pass over Hoover Dam and Lake Mead

After takeoff, you first fly over Hoover Dam and the neighboring Bypass Bridge. You then cross Lake Mead National Recreation Area on your way toward the Grand Canyon.

Descend below the rim and fly through the Grand Canyon

When you reach the entrance to the Grand Canyon, the helicopter begins its descent below the rim. Over a stretch of about 24 km above and below the rim, you fly over the Colorado River and see vividly colored rock walls, side canyons and rock spires up close.

Return over the Mojave Desert and the Las Vegas Strip

On the way back, enjoy 180-degree panoramic views of the rugged rock formations of the Mojave Desert, then fly over the resort hotels and landmarks of the Las Vegas Strip before landing at the heliport. After the flight, you are driven back to your hotel.
