Las Vegas is a major tourist center situated near the California and Arizona borders. This city attracts a large number of tourists every year mainly for its casinos and the Grand Canyon. The Grand Canyon is a ravine of the Colorado River in northwest Arizona. It is regarded as one of the natural wonders of the world. This Canyon is around 1.6 km deep, 6.4-29 km wide, and about 349 km long. The U.S. government made the Grand Canyon a national monument somewhere in 1908 and later allocated a large area as the Grand Canyon National Park. Since the Grand Canyon is the main tourist attraction of Las Vegas, different types of tours are arranged in this city in order to have the real adventure of the natural wonder of the world.
There are a number of Las Vegas Grand Canyon tours available, which offer different modes of transportation. Tourists can either travel to the Grand Canyon by luxury buses or by air-conditioned six-passenger VIP helicopters with large view windows. Most of the bus tours are for approximately 14 hours and offer hotel pickup and drop facility. These bus tours provide all the comfort and safety, as they are equipped with airline seating, restroom, and panoramic windows so that the passengers can have a beautiful scenic journey. These tours stop at the most exclusive spots for unique views from along the Grand Canyon rim. They also provide complimentary buffet lunch to the tourists at one of the best Canyon area restaurants along with the land tour of Grand Canyon South Rim. As compared to bus tours, helicopter tours are more adventurous and less time consuming. Tourists can experience the true ranch adventure with cowboys along with enjoying spectacular views of the Hoover Dam and Lake Mead, the Colorado plateau, silver mines, and Ice Berg Canyon from the helicopters. These tours provide the tourists with the ultimate rugged cowboy experience, as the cowboys take them by horse drawn wagons to the ranch where they can have a western meal with live entertainment and music.
There are many special discounts available on last minute winter bookings of Las Vegas Grand Canyon tours, especially on the helicopter tours. These tours truly help to make the Grand Canyon visit a memorable one.
