Let’s kick off with the bougiest of rides – this helicopter tour of the Grand Canyon flies over the South Rim, where the gorge reaches its deepest.
Zoom over the lush Kaibab National Forest, with its towering ponderosa and pinyon pine trees, and gawk at the widest part of the South Rim. Whilst heading to the North Rim, you’ll get scenic views of the Colorado River.
The West Rim has a lot going for it. Apart from the incredible horseshoe-shaped cantilever bridge with a glass walkway, aptly named the Skywalk, you’ll also find a gateway into the world of the Hualapai Tribe.
The tour begins in Las Vegas, where you’ll get picked up via private transfer. You’ll stop by the iconic Hoover Dam, where you can take snaps that’ll make all the San Andreas fans jealous.
This scenic helicopter ride ends with a tasty glass of champagne at the bottom of the canyon while overlooking the Colorado River.
If you’re staying in the South Rim area, this is probably my top recommendation. This helicopter ride in the Grand Canyon blesses you with views of the kaleidoscopic Painted Desert.
