Helicopter Tour of the North Canyon with Optional Hummer Excursion
Overview
If you're visiting the Grand Canyon National Park, a helicopter tour is the only way to truly see the entire South Rim! Arrive at our state-of-the-art air terminal near the park entrance and board a 25-30 minute flight aboard a luxury sightseeing helicopter. You'll discover aerial views of the striped canyon walls, the Colorado River raging between them, the lush Kaibab Forest lining the canyon's surface, and the elusive North Rim.
You can also upgrade your Grand Canyon helicopter tour to include a ground excursion aboard an open-air Hummer vehicle that stops at multiple stunning lookout points along the canyon's edge.
