Air tours to West Rim

Hi - coming to LV April 2008. My son wants to walk on the skywalk. Looking at flying (plane/helicopter). Prices vary substantial, which company would anyone recommend. Thanks.



Air tours to West Rim


There hasn';t been very good revies about this.You have to drive on a dirt road and pay to go on the indian resvation and also pay to go on the skywalk and you have to leave all of your belongs.

You can find information at www.destinationgrandcanyon.com



If you drive the entrancefee will be around $ 80,-- per person, the skywalk included. You%26#39;re not allowed to take pictures from the skywalk and the buildings still are under construction. Also maybe check: www.papillon.com for tours.

I recommend reading more about the Skywalk. See Inside pages for GCNP (clink on GCNP Overview at left). The Skywalk is not ';suspended 4000 feet above the Colorado River'; as has been advertised. It%26#39;s actually on a side canyon with a drop of about 2000%26#39; into the side canyon, and several hundred feet to rocks directly below.



For the less money than a heli ride to Grand Canyon West, you can fly on a fixed-wing aircraft over everything to GCNP South Rim, and have a 3-hour ground tour there, and see the real canyon which you have seen in photos and video. Providers: Scenic Airlines, Grand Canyon Airlines, Papillon Helicopters.
