Grand Canyon West from Las Vegas
If you want to experience the Grand Canyon but don’t want to take the drive out of Vegas then this tour is for you. We were picked up right outside our hotel and travelled to the Grand Canyon West with a short stop at the Hoover Dam bypass bridge on the way to take photos and view the Dam. Another short stop at a reststop just outside Dolan Springs breaks the journey up nicely. The host and driver were friendly and informative, pointing out places of interest and explaining facts and information along the way. After passing through Joshua Tree National Park and on entering the Grand Canyon Territory (Hualapai Nation) the scenery becomes more dramatic. From the parking lot you will be directed through the visitor centre to the shuttle buses at the back that take you to the West Rim. Once there you have around 3.5 hours to explore at your leisure and can take the frequent shuttle bus between Eagle Point and Guano point. The journey between is about 20 minutes. If you have booked lunch, I would recommend heading straight to the restaurant at Eagle pont on arrival, even though it’s a bit early. We did this and there was zero queue, we were seated immediately. By the time we were served it was around 11:30 so not too early for lunch. When we left, the line for the restaurant stretched all the way down the stairs and into the gift shop! The Hualapai people put on displays of traditional dances and there are some selling handmade jewellery. Guano point is where the views are really stunning. No railings here so stay away from the edges. I had to look away a few times from people sitting on the edge of the 4000ft drop trying to get their Instagram worthy photo. Don’t do it folks! You are given a time to meet back at the parking lot so make sure you catch the shuttle in time to not hold the group up. Return journey is pleasant with more commentary and a rest stop at Terribles. Is a long day but well worth it. Entry fee to the park is included in the price.

Solo female traveler
I did this solo and it was a great experience! I had always wanted to go to Zion and didn’t even have Bryce Canyon on my radar. Both were jaw dropping beautiful! John was our tour guide and he was very knowledgeable, friendly and took a bunch of pics for me since I was solo. Bathroom on board. Plenty of stops for breaks. Great deal!! Relaxing and informative

Great tour!
Wonderful experience visiting the Grand Canyon. We purchased the helicopter and boat ride based on the tour guides recommendation and we're glad we did! Only downside was that the helicopter took up alot of the allotted time, so we felt rushed trying to see the rest of the viewpoints. Our guide Laila gave very detailed instructions and made sure everyone knew where they needed to be. The bus driver Wayne (?) was also great!
