Tour Details
Journey to the Grand Canyon West Rim for an authentic experience with the Hualapai Tribe and venture onto the famed Canyon Skywalk for a perspective that many people miss. This fully-guided day trip from Las Vegas includes your Skywalk ticket and a complimentary lunch along the Rim at an on-site cafe. Our guides remain with you for the entire journey, navigating the stops and sharing insights along the way.
We depart early to avoid the heat and the crowds! (No one wants to be stuck in long lines during the heat of the day after they've been enjoying the good times in Las Vegas.) You'll travel through spectacular Southwest landscapes 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 be met with 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. Your Skywalk admission is included in the tour.
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).
After a bit of hiking and free time, we'll enjoy a complimentary lunch at one of the West Rim's onsite cafes. Don't miss the chance to capture a few last-minute selfies before departing the West Rim.
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.
