What to Expect on Your Las Vegas to Skywalk Grand Canyon Tour

Take a Papillon Grand Canyon aerial sightseeing tour from Las Vegas, departing from Boulder City Municipal Airport. Spectacular aerial views on your flight to Grand Canyon will include Hoover Dam and the Mike O'Callaghan-Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge, breathtaking views of Lake Mead, the Mojave Desert and of course Grand Canyon itself.

Upon arrival at Grand Canyon West Rim and the Hualapai Nation you will have the opportunity to experience the world-famous glass bridge, known as the Grand Canyon Skywalk, which extends 70 feet from the canyon rim and is suspended 4,00 feet above the canyon floor. Our VIP skywalk tickets guarantee easy access. The views from the bridge are awe inspiring but remember – No cameras are allowed on the bridge itself. If you want those famous selfies from the edge, then your shuttle will stop at famous look out points, Guano Point and Eagle Point. At Eagle point you can also explore the Hualapai tribe’s history at the Native American Village and enjoy a quick bite at the Sky View Restaurant.

How to Plan Your Trip from Las Vegas to the Skywalk

To plan your trip from Las Vegas to the Skywalk at the Grand Canyon, it’s important to note that personal items including cameras and cellphones are not allowed on the Skywalk. During your time on the glass bridge, a professional photographer will be available if you wish to purchase a photo to commemorate your visit.

On the day of your visit, start by checking the weather forecast. The Grand Canyon area can experience temperature extremes, so dress in layers and wear comfortable walking shoes. There can be a notable difference in temperature between Las Vegas and the Grand Canyon, with the latter being cooler due to higher elevation.

Remember to plan accordingly and check the specific guidelines and regulations of the Skywalk before your visit to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience.
