Grand Canyon West

Introduction:

Grand Canyon West Rim

This portion of the wondrous Grand Canyon not only offers spectacular views of the natural phenomenon, but gives visitors a chance to meet and interact with the Hualapai Native American Tribe that oversees operations here. Grand Canyon West Rim is located on a Hualapai Reservation established in 1883 and is not part of Grand Canyon National Park. It attracts approximately 200,000 visitors every year and its popular SkyWalk glass bridge jutting out from the canyon is bringing in more tourists than ever. Other points of interest on the West Rim are Hualapai Ranch, Native American Village, Guano Point and Eagle Point.

Stunning Views and Great Stops
Wow, what a day! The Grand Canyon West is gorgeous, and this tour is a great way to see it all in a day. The stops at Boulder City and Joshua Tree were fun little surprises, and the canyon itself is breathtaking. The Skywalk was definitely worth the extra ticket, and the views from Guano Point were absolutely stunning. I also really enjoyed the quick Hoover Dam photo op. It’s a long day, but the tour is so well-paced, and it’s hard not to be impressed by the beauty of it all. Highly recommend!

Breathtaking Views, Great Day Trip!
If you’re in Vegas and want to check out the Grand Canyon without doing an overnight trip, this is your go-to. The tour was pretty comfortable, and the breakfast in Boulder City was a nice bonus. The Grand Canyon itself was beyond what I imagined. The Skywalk is a must-do, even if you’re scared of heights! Afterward, we explored Guano Point and it felt like being on top of the world. The stop at Hoover Dam was an unexpected highlight. Would definitely do this tour again if I’m back in Vegas.

Perfect Day, Unforgettable Sights
I was a bit skeptical about spending an entire day on a bus, but this trip was worth every minute. The tour guide kept things interesting, and I loved the stops along the way – especially Joshua Tree! The Grand Canyon didn’t disappoint. Eagle Point and the Skywalk were breathtaking, though I was a bit scared to step on the glass bridge. Guano Point offered some of the best views of the canyon, and I loved learning about the Native American culture at the Hualapai Ranch. Definitely a tour I’d recommend to anyone visiting Las Vegas!

Skywalk Is a Must-Do
I’m so glad I signed up for this tour! The drive was really smooth, and our guide was awesome at explaining everything we were seeing. The views at Grand Canyon West were out of this world. Eagle Point was beautiful, but the Skywalk? INSANE. It’s so high up, but the views of the canyon were something else. Guano Point was equally breathtaking with a 360-degree view of the entire canyon. The Hoover Dam was a cool bonus on the way back too. A perfect day trip from Vegas if you don’t want to miss the Grand Canyon!

Totally Worth It!
This tour was amazing! It’s a long day, but so worth it. The drive through the Mojave Desert was surprisingly scenic, and the stops at Boulder City and Joshua Tree were nice breaks. Once we got to the Grand Canyon West, I was absolutely floored. Eagle Point had the best views, and the Skywalk was wild – the glass floor really gives you a “floating” feeling. Guano Point was next-level, with panoramic views of the canyon and the Colorado River. And on the way back, we got to check out the Hoover Dam, which was epic. Highly recommend this tour if you’re looking to experience one of the Seven Wonders in a day!
