Stunning Grand Canyon Helicopter Tour Video Preview
We recently received the following question from one of our Access Vegas Insider Vibe newsletter readers:
We are coming to Vegas in September for start of our honeymoon. Lots of people are telling me that we HAVE to visit the Grand Canyon. Can you please give me your views, is this really awe inspiring or just a “large hole”. Last year we were lucky enough to have gone on safari in Kenya and that was truly humbling, so any similar feeling from the Canyon and we would not even hesitate.
Regards
Brian and Sara
Our answer:
Our friend Mark from The Vegas Tourist is a tour guide that has taken many thousands of people all over this area. One of his favorite stories is how on bus tours that include The Grand Canyon, many people assume that it is probably just a big hole and once you’ve seen a photo of it, no big deal.
Then… they get off the bus, go over and actually look at the Canyon, and are so amazed and astounded that the literally run back to the bus for their camera and bemoan that they only have 1.5 hours there. You will be more than amazed. Similar experiences (although not quite as jaw-dropping) happen to those who visit Hoover Dam. OK… a big dam. So what. Just go stand on the thing. I’ve never had anyone visit it who wasn’t awestruck.
Our suggestion? We have a Canyon bus tour listed just above (which turned out to be a complete but nice coincidence). But for those who want the absolute best Grand Canyon experience, we strongly suggest the Maverick Helicopter Tours flight that actually lands you in at at the bottom of the Grand Canyon. Check out preview video of that flight below:
This tour can be booked at Maverick Helicopter Tours
