Gran Celebración al Atardecer

The Grand Celebration Helicopter Tour is our most popular tour in Las Vegas. The route of flight will take you over Hoover Dam, Lake Mead, extinct volcanoes, the Colorado River and the scenic beauty of the Mojave Desert. As you fly over the West Rim on the Hualapai Reservation, your helicopter will begin a 4,000 foot drop down to the Canyon floor. Take in the magnificent views of the Canyon walls and rock formations as you descend to the bottom. They are awesome! As you get out of the helicopter, you’ll see the gently flowing Colorado River doing what it has done for billions of years, gently and continuing to carve the Grand Canyon. You will have time to explore the Canyon floor and enjoy a light meal and a glass of celebratory Champaign. Lunch is served under a “Ramada,” a traditional Hualapai shelter offering shade and a picnic table. Your flight back is timed to enjoy a beautiful sunset over the Mohave Desert.
