This breathtaking journey on the Grand Canyon Skywalk Experience Tour begins after your group arrives at our Boulder City Terminal. Take to the skies in a fixed-wing aircraft for a 35-minute flight over Hoover Dam, Lake Mead, and the curves of the Colorado River.
Upon arrival at Grand Canyon West - the land of the Hualapai Native American Tribe - you will have access to shuttle service for transport to multiple West Rim viewpoints. Your first stop is Eagle Point, a massive naturally-carved rock formation bearing a striking resemblance to an eagle taking flight. You’ll then visit Guano Point, where you’ll discover spectacular 360-degree views of these ancient rock walls.
However, the most exciting viewpoint on your tour will surely be the Skywalk Bridge. This massive construction features a glass floor that allows visitors to step out 70 feet past the rim’s edge to see the canyon floor a staggering 4,000 feet beneath you. Multiple cafes and food options are available for purchase at the West Rim and can be enjoyed at any time during your Grand Canyon visit.
Your return flight back to the Boulder City Terminal offers the same stunning aerial views of the Mojave Desert.
