Grand Canyon West Rim (Skywalk) from Las Vegas
Because of the HUGE DEMAND, we’ve opened a “Summer Only” tour season originating from the Las Vegas area. Most of our Guests come back for a second (third) tour, and increasingly asked for our private tours out of Vegas. Most discovered luxury private tours were non-existent in the Vegas area.
TOUR OVERVIEW
Leaving Vegas @ 7AM you’ll travel to our first stop, the Hoover Dam. This is a quick stop, but you’ll have the opportunity to grab a photo at the Pat Tillman bridge.
Jumping back in the vehicle you’re off to Grand Canyon West; home of the Skywalk. We’ll stop when needed. Need a restroom break? Want to stretch your legs? Not a problem.
Arriving at the West Rim around 10AM you’ll have plenty of time to explore several of the popular lookouts to include Eagle and Guano Point.
SKYWALK – $100 per-person
In the old days, the most thrilling view you could get of the Grand Canyon came standing at its edge. In 2007, that view got even better with the opening of the Skywalk at Eagle Point. This 10-foot-wide, horseshoe-shaped glass bridge extends 70 feet out over the rim of the Canyon. Look down and you can see right through the glass platform 4,000 feet to the floor of the Canyon below.
