Grand Canyon Skywalk Helicopter Tour FAQs

If you're visiting the Grand Canyon West Rim, the All Access pass not only includes entry into the park, but also access to the Skywalk, shuttle transportation to lookout points, a visit to the Hualapai Point Native American cultural center, and meal and retail credits.

Your All Access pass includes entry onto the Skywalk! Once on the bridge, stare straight down through the glass bottom for some of the most spectacular views that the Grand Canyon has to offer. For a little perspective, this bridge hangs 70 feet over the rim of the canyon and 4,000 feet above its floor!
Across from the bridge, marvel at Eagle Point - the colossal stone formation that resembles an eagle spreading its wings for flight. You'll also receive shuttle transport to Hualapai Point - a Native American cultural center, and Guano Point - which offers a 360-degree view of the canyon scenery.
