About this tour

Leave Las Vegas behind for a full day at the Grand Canyon’s South Rim, where immense cliffs and layered rock stretch toward the horizon. This Las Vegas Grand Canyon South Rim tour includes hotel pickup from most Strip and Downtown hotels, bottled water, and a deli lunch served picnic-style at the rim, weather permitting.

Spend three hours inside Grand Canyon National Park, with time to admire the views at Mather Point, visit Grand Canyon Village, and see the historic Bright Angel Trailhead. A guided walk along the rim and a helicopter flight over the South Rim are available as optional upgrades. The climate-controlled motor coach has reclining seats, oversized windows, video monitors, and an onboard restroom. Pickup details are confirmed after booking, and waits may occur due to weather or passenger volumes. Non-U.S. residents may be charged an additional USD 100.00 National Park fee at the destination.

Choose the options that suit your day, then set out from Las Vegas to experience the scale of the South Rim for yourself.

How the score works and rating distribution in Las Vegas
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 2.5.
