Helicopter Tours

Artists from all over the world visit the Grand Canyon all year round. Some are there to photograph while others are there to paint or draw. Many written works about Canyon experiences are created while sitting here “on the edge of the world”. With so many people visiting (5 million annually) it is small wonder that we hear them reminisce about their moments flying over the Canyon.

The instant the ground drifts below you the Grand Canyon helicopter tour adventure begins. Hoover Dam and historic Boulder City (home of the Dam’s builders) stretch out in front of you while Lake Mead, the largest man made body of water in the Western Hemisphere, glitters in the distance. Then climb up and over the Black Mountains with its many extinct volcanoes and sail gracefully over the Grand Wash Cliffs which mark the beginning of the Grand Canyon.

As you float over the Canyon you will be welcomed with the diverse reds, oranges, and purples that adorn the canyon walls. The power of the Canyon then comes to you full force as the vast scenery forces the mind into the back seat and allows the soul to take over.

Select Grand Canyon sightseeing tours can take you on 4,000 foot decent to the bottom of the Grand Canyon to an exclusive landing site. From there you can be up close and personal with the mighty Colorado River, the force responsible for the awe inspiring beauty laid out around you.
