Memorial Day is round the corner. For those who will be holidaying in Las Vegas, put in some efforts to make your holiday both outstanding and unforgettable. One of the best ways to tour the city is through Grand Canyon flight and you are sure to find one from the many options fitting both your requirements and financial plan
Tips to Take Journeys from Vegas
Vegas tours come in two varieties. There are flyover tours, and then there are landing tours. Whichever option you choose, you will follow the same route on the way out to the Grand Canyon. This means that there will be a flyover of the Lake Mead reservoir, and the impressive Hoover Dam. Once at the Canyon, the flyover tour will perform some scenic passes, before heading back to Vegas. If you choose the landing option, then your helicopter will either set you down at the top, or the bottom of the Canyon.
The bottom landing tour is my personal favorite, and it's also hugely popular with visitors. You will be set down right next to the Colorado River, and you can enjoy a champagne picnic after exiting the helicopter. If you want to get even more out of the bottom landing tour, then make sure that you book a boat tour, which will allow you to witness the Canyon from a whole new perspective.
The many hiking routes and observation points on the West Rim are what make the top landing tour so attractive. There is another immensely well-known sight amongst tourists which is the Grand Canyon skywalk. Standing at 70ft from the platform's edge and 4000ft from the Canyon's bottom the transparent flooring gives you the an outstanding tingling experience.One of the legal photographers of the park will take your photo at this penultimate photo point.
Grand Canyon South
The South Rim is in nearby Arizona, but you'll have to take a short one hour plane journey to get there from Las Vegas. At the South Rim you can take a 50 minute helicopter tour that covers the North and South Rims, as well as the boundary at the eastern area of the park. If you do want to go to the South Rim, I recommend the flight rather than driving, because the journey is 5.5 hours from Vegas if you take your car or a tour bus.
Booking Deluxe Tours
While making ticket reservations, you have to select between basic and exclusive. As there is only a small difference in ticket rates I always advise the exclusive as it also gives a beautiful experience. The modified EcoStar 130 helicopter for sightseeing is used on exclusive trips. Not only is its viewing window bigger than any other helicopter's, it has enormous seats set in a stadium layout to ensure no one's view is blocked. With its included limousine commute service, the exclusive tours add more value to the already exclusive tour bundle.
Judgement
As a last word, make sure that you book your tickets soon. I recommend that bookings are made no later than two weeks before you intend to fly. Memorial Day and the surrounding days will be extremely busy, and you don't want to miss out on tickets. Book online for convenience, and confirm using your credit card so that your seats are secured. By booking online you will also get the best prices.
Don't forget to bring along some snacks, light clothes to cover your arms, sunscreen and bottled water as it is very hot at the Grand Canyon and Las Vegas. Select the perfect date and tour offer and you can expect one of the best experiences found in North America.
