West Rim Tour Highlights
Your West Rim Experience
Experience the breathtaking beauty of the Grand Canyon and the Colorado River from both the skies and the water on this unforgettable helicopter and rafting adventure. Start your journey with convenient shuttle transportation from select Las Vegas hotels to the Boulder City Terminal, just outside Las Vegas.
Take to the skies aboard a state-of-the-art helicopter for an awe-inspiring flight filled with spectacular sights. Soar above iconic landmarks such as the magnificent Hoover Dam and Lake Mead, one of the world's largest man-made lakes. Your knowledgeable pilot provides fascinating insights into the history and natural wonders of these breathtaking landmarks, guiding you over dramatic cliffs and deep ravines, including the striking Black Canyon.
Next, descend gently to the floor of the majestic Grand Canyon, where you'll step onto lands belonging to the Hualapai Tribe. Here, you'll enjoy a relaxing champagne toast and a delightful light picnic under a traditional ramada, soaking in the serene atmosphere of this extraordinary landscape.
The adventure continues as you meet your expert rafting guide at the base of Hoover Dam for a thrilling 11-mile (17 km) rafting expedition down the Colorado River. Drift along the river, marveling at the sheer cliffs of the stunning Black Canyon, and pause midway for a refreshing riverside lunch on a tranquil beach.
Your remarkable journey concludes at the peaceful Willow Beach Marina, offering a perfect moment to relax and reflect on your unforgettable day before your return to Las Vegas.
Please note: From December through February, the rafting portion of this tour only operates on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

Very organised company with good communication.
Comfortable coach.
We visited west rim of the canyon at 3 different view points, which showed different canyon rock cliffs crested throughout the canyon.
Helicopter ride was well worth it seeing more variants of how the canyon was formed and what it is today
I would have liked at least 20 min longer at the bottom after the boat ride to enjoy the scenery.
We were rushed after the boat and back onto the helicopter . I wanted to look around more.
I would recommend this bus tour – you will see many areas.
