About this tour

See the desert from two unforgettable perspectives on a Las Vegas helicopter flight and Emerald Cave kayak tour. This 9-hour outing pairs sweeping aerial views with a guided paddle through Black Canyon.

Depart from Las Vegas for a 90-minute helicopter flight featuring views of Hoover Dam, the Colorado River, and the Grand Canyon, including Iceberg Canyon and the Bowl of Fire. Then trade the sky for the water on a 3-hour guided kayak tour along the Colorado River. Paddle toward Emerald Cave, watch for wildlife, and explore historic sites along the way. Bottled water, a boxed lunch, air-conditioned transportation, and fees and taxes are included.

A live English-speaking guide leads the kayak experience. Bring a valid government-issued ID that matches the name on your ticket, and be ready for a moderate level of physical activity. Book this Las Vegas helicopter flight and kayak adventure for a memorable day above and along the Colorado River.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.75 from 24 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

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 6.9.
