Overview
Sightseers at the Grand Canyon West can experience the park with this exciting helicopter and boat adventure. At our nearby air terminal, you'll board a luxury helicopter and descend a breathtaking 4,000 feet to the canyon floor. Your helicopter will land near the bank of the Colorado River rushing nearly a mile below the canyon rim.
You'll then board a pontoon boat and enjoy a smooth water cruise along this ancient river, which continues to erode and carve the canyon to this day. You'll witness the changing colors and textures of the stone walls on either side of you as you float peacefully between the Grand Canyon West.
After your boat tour, you'll board your helicopter to be returned to the canyon rim.
