Fly from Las Vegas over Hoover Dam to a private Grand Canyon bluff for Champagne, canyon views, and a sunset return.

About this tour

Trade the city lights for a sunset flight over the desert on a Las Vegas Grand Canyon helicopter tour. From the air, take in the vast landscapes around Lake Mead, Hoover Dam, and Fortification Hill before descending to a private bluff overlooking the Colorado River.

Spend about 30 minutes on the bluff, with time to explore the dramatic canyon scenery and enjoy a Champagne toast with light snacks. The Eco-Star helicopter flight takes approximately 45 minutes each way, and the return journey brings sweeping views of the Las Vegas Strip at sunset. The full experience lasts 150 minutes, combining aerial sightseeing with a rare landing inside the Grand Canyon.

Book this Las Vegas Grand Canyon helicopter tour for a memorable perspective on the Southwest, from rugged canyon walls to the city glowing at dusk.

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 8.3. Top 12% in Las Vegas means it ranks in the top 12% of tours in Las Vegas by this score.
