Native Explorer Tour with Legacy


Discover the West Rim aboard a Grand Canyon airplane tour, then explore the various attractions and lookout points from the ground, with complimentary shuttle service.

Planning to visit Grand Canyon West? In addition to the stunning vistas along the West Rim, you can also experience an unforgettable flight over the canyon’s extraordinary landmarks! This air tour departs from the Grand Canyon West air terminal just a short distance from the rim. Once airborne, you’ll enjoy breathtaking views from above Eagle Point (including the world-famous Skywalk glass bridge), Guano Point, and other fantastic rock formations. In-flight headset narration will provide interesting facts and the history of the Grand Canyon during your tour.

Your adventure continues with a ground tour of Grand Canyon West via shuttle bus. Your first stop is to Hualapai Ranch, a cowboy town complete with Old West gunfights and lasso lessons. Journey to Eagle Point and marvel at the enormous eagle-shaped rock formation. See Native American dwellings from several tribes and enjoy cultural music and dancing here, as well. From there, you’ll proceed to Guano Point for 360-degree views of the massive stone walls of the canyon. This tour is the perfect way to see everything the West Rim has to offer!
