Tour Details
A trip to the Grand Canyon is simply incomparable and our Grand Canyon West Rim Tour ensures you will enjoy an authentic experience at this natural wonder. Plus, you'll enjoy plenty of Southwest sights on the journey there and back. Our knowledgeable Certified Interpretive Guides and custom Tour Trekker will make this a journey you won't forget.
We’ll pick you up at your hotel and you'll relax in leather captain's chairs with oversized windows and unobstructed views during the ride to Eagle Point. On the way, you'll see Lake Mead, the largest man-made reservoir in the country. It contains enough water to flood the entire state of New York! You’ll also travel through a Joshua Tree forest and learn about the unique plants and animals of the Mojave Desert.
Upon arriving at the Grand Canyon West Rim, you'll experience the breathtaking beauty of the Grand Canyon from Eagle Point—home to the Hualapai Tribe. The ancestors of this native Arizona tribe date back to A.D. 600. Marvel at stunning panoramic views, see the majestic Eagle Rock Formation and learn the legend behind its creation.
Experience the Hualapai culture first-hand, tour exhibits and shop for hand-crafted souvenirs from indigenous tribes. Take a self-guided tour of a traditional Native American Village, featuring authentic housing, ovens, and a sweat lodge. You'll have plenty of time to explore.
Eagle Point is also home to the Grand Canyon Skywalk, one of the world's most thrilling cantilever glass bridges. Step out on the 10-foot wide, horseshoe-shaped glass bridge that extends 70 feet out over the rim of the Grand Canyon. Peer down for breathtaking views of the Canyon floor, 4,000 feet below. (Skywalk admission is an additional fee and can be purchased upon arrival.)
Next stop is Guano Point, one of the most dramatic views of the Grand Canyon. Hike to the top of the point for a stunning 360-degree panorama of the West Rim. See if you can spot remnants of the historic tram that once stretched across the canyon to a guano mine. The natural bat cave located here was the site of a climactic scene in the film “Edge of Eternity” (Columbia Pictures, 1959).
Your tour includes a photo stop at the Hoover Dam along the Arizona-Nevada border. Built during the Great Depression, the art deco dam tamed the unpredictable Colorado River and was once the most massive concrete structure in the world. It joins the Brooklyn Bridge and Panama Canal as one of the Seven Wonders of the Industrial World.
There’s much to see and do on the Grand Canyon West Rim tour, and we’ll make sure you catch all the best sights. A combination of history, culture, and stunning beauty makes this journey unforgettable.
