The Best Grand Canyon Tours From Las Vegas (Ranked)

The Grand Canyon is one of the seven natural wonders of the world, and it is only a few hours from Las Vegas. But with so many tour options available, it can be hard to know which one is worth your time and money.

We have sold thousands of Grand Canyon tours and we know exactly what each experience delivers. Here is our honest ranking.

1. Grand Canyon Helicopter Champagne Picnic Landing ($519). The definitive Grand Canyon experience. Your helicopter descends 3,500 feet to the canyon floor, where you step out and enjoy a private champagne picnic surrounded by 1.8 billion-year-old rock walls. Most people say this is the best thing they have ever done in their lives. If your budget allows, this is the one.

2. Grand Canyon Helicopter Non-Landing Tour ($469). A breathtaking 30-minute flight over the canyon rim and into the gorge. You feel the scale of the canyon in a way that photos simply cannot convey. A fantastic experience even without the landing.

3. Grand Canyon Airplane Landing with Skywalk ($419). Fly to the canyon's South Rim and walk out on the famous glass Skywalk 4,000 feet above the canyon floor. Genuinely one of the most vertigo-inducing things you can do, in the best possible way.

4. Grand Canyon Scenic Airplane Tour ($269). Our best-value Grand Canyon tour. A low-altitude flight over the canyon with expert pilot commentary. You won't land, but you will see everything that makes the Grand Canyon extraordinary. Great for first-timers on a budget.

Tips for Booking: Book at least 48 hours in advance during peak season (March to October). Early morning tours offer the best light and fewest clouds. If you are prone to motion sickness, the airplane tour is more stable than the helicopter. All tours include hotel pickup from the Strip.
