Grand Canyon South Deluxe Air And Bus Tour

This 1-day Grand Canyon airplane and bus tour from Las Vegas is a great way to see this spectacular park with a bit more comfort and a relaxed schedule. The Grand Canyon, stretching more than 277 miles in length, and spanning over 18 miles across is a wondrous site to behold. Five thousand feet below the rim, The Colorado River is responsible for the majority of the natural erosion that has shaped this remarkable landmark.

Now you can travel to the Grand Canyon South Rim National Park aboard a state-of-the-art German-built Dornier 328 or the smaller, nimble Dornier 228, both affording unobstructed views of the American Southwest. Only from the air can you truly see the majesty and beauty of the Grand Canyon. Your tour is packaged with the only airline that departs the downtown Las Vegas Airport.  Because you are departing from the downtown Las Vegas Airport, you will enjoy 18% more sightseeing en route to the Grand Canyon South Rim, including flightseeing over the famous Lake Mead, Nellis Air Force Base, and the Hualapai Indian Nation comprising the Canyon’s West Rim. A helpful flight attendant attends to your needs throughout the 45-minute flight to the Canyon.

Your luxury motorcoach greets you at the south canyon airport and continues on to the popular view destinations at the Park.  Once inside the Grand Canyon National Park you will be stopping at the new state of the art visitor center (offering information on all aspects of the Grand Canyon). One of the first sights you will see of the Grand Canyon is Mather Point (the deepest part of the canyon, 277 miles long, 18 miles wide and 1 mile deep), located only a few miles north of the southern entrance. Your journey will also land you at the Bright Angel Lodge, which can be found in the western part of the Grand Canyon Village. This lodge, built in the 1930’s, is surrounded by historic sites such as the park’s oldest post office and the oldest continually standing building on the rim, the Bucky O’Neill Cabin.  Your talented guide will share points of interest and always answer questions along the way. You’ll truly appreciate the extra care and comfort you’ll receive on this tour.

You will have free time to browse it’s gift shops, museum, and snack shop. All the stops provide time for exploring and photographing. A box lunch meal is included in your tour that is sure to hit the spot. You can eat it anywhere you like at the Canyon. Even at the views!

About two and a half hours pass between the time you land and the time you fly back to Las Vegas, a lot of time for sightseeing, souvenir shopping, photography, and relaxation. The day is concluded with your flight back to Las Vegas and bus transport back to your hotel
