Highlights

  • Grand Canyon West - Enjoy a day away from the hustle and bustle of Las Vegas and head to the Grand Canyon’s west rim - home to the world-famous Skywalk. Your tour begins with a brief stop at the Hoover Dam for a photo opportunity and amazing view of the Dam and Bypass Bridge. After a relaxing bus ride through the 900 year old Joshua Tree forest, you will arrive at the West Rim of the Grand Canyon. Once here, you will receive a ticket for lunch and your shuttle ticket which will allow you to move about the canyon very easily. You will have approximately three (3) hours to explore here on your own.
  • Grand Canyon Skywalk - Your first stop will be Eagle Point. Here, you can step out onto the glass skywalk, a U-shaped glass deck that extends 70 feet beyond the rim of the Canyon giving you a full view of the 4,000 foot drop to the Colorado River below. The views from here are nothing short of spectacular and be sure to spot the eagle in the facing rock. Also at Eagle Point is a Native American Village which displays many tribal homes and depicts the lifestyle of the local natives and you can watch cultural activities such as performances by Indian dances in the amphitheater. This is an optional upgrade that you can select upon checkout.
  • Guano Point - From here, you can make your way to Guano Point with even more spectacular views over the Colorado River. You can hike the trail here which leads to the highest point where the scenic vantage offers a majestic view of the Colorado River or just simply relax and enjoy the peacefulness of Grand Canyon West whilst enjoying a hot meal with stunning views!

re: View of the eagle point, guana point and hoover damn. - Our tour guide was Charles..I must say this tour guide needs 10 stars employee of the month or quarter. Very knowledgeable, made the entire bus feel safe, happy, aware, and educated on the hotspots. We wish the day was longer .Hoover Dam wasn't close enough but he made it well worth it!!! Thank you the Abbott's

10/10 experience - Absolutely worth it! We came to Las Vegas specifically to go on a Grand Canyon tour and are so glad we went with this one. We'd definitely reccomend adding on breakfast (served super efficiently at ihop) and lunch as it made the day so much easier. It was a complete door to door service, with a van picking us up to go to the main bus, and the bus dropping us off at our door at the end of the day. Our driver/guide/fountain of knowledge Lorena made the trip infinitely better, she was full of knowledge, facts, tips for the day, and good humour, and showed us some great documentaries about the Hoover Dam and the Grand Canyon on the drive. The Hoover Dam, and the Canyon viewing points were better than we could've imagined, and luckily the queue to the skywalk wasn't very long when we were there! We'd recommend lunch at Guano Point for amazing views whilst you eat, and we had plenty of time to walk around as much as we wanted. Only thing to mention is that the drop off at the end of the day can get a bit long if you're staying at one of the less central hotels like we were - but we realised we could've just gotten off at an earlier hotel and taken a cab back to our hotel so we had a bit more wiggle room to make our dinner reservations! We'd also like to thank Sweetours for their amazing communication in the lead up to the trip, they always responded quickly, politely, answered all of our questions and kept us updated on the day regarding our pick up!

Bus trip day out. - We booked this tour after 3 days of walking up and down Las Vegas strip and wanted to do something different and more relaxed. Firstly would like to thank Charles our driver. He was funny, chatty and very knowledgeable of the areas we went, he really made the day fun. It was an 0630 start, we stopped at the IHOP for a fairly good pancake breakfast, the hit the road to the Hoover Dam. It looked amazing, however we were disappointed that we only drove over the dam and up to a viewpoint car park where we stayed for about 20mins for a few pics and a look around a souvenir shop. Honestly It would have been nicer to get the chance to actually visit the dam and the visitors centre rather than just looking down from a car park. We moved on through Arizona with some stunning views and on to the Grand Canyon. After queuing for nearly 2 hours in 40+ heat We did the sky walk, scared the bejesus out of us both. Standing on a piece of glass 4000 ft up… After doing this, we had some food which was ok, had a little look about and then back to the bus. We got back to the hotel late, so it was a full day travelling on a bus. Although it was a good experience, with a great driver. The whole day seemed a little rushed.
