Grand Canyon Bus Tours for the Spring Break Holiday

Are you going to be in Las Vegas for the Spring Break? Or maybe you're just thinking about it? At this stage, you'll have to come up with a plan if you want to beat the March – April rush. The Grand Canyon is just outside of Las Vegas, and it's going to be one of the best destinations for the upcoming break. Bus Tours are a great way to experience the Grand Canyon, and there are plenty of options for adventurous travelers.

You can visit the West Rim or the South Rim from Las Vegas, so it's really the best point to start your adventure from. There are even helicopter tours at both rims, so you will have plenty of choices when it comes to booking your tour.

Skywalk at the West Rim

The West Rim is the most popular area of the Canyon, thanks in part to the awesome facilities and attractions that are available there. One of the best, is the Grand Canyon Skywalk. The Skywalk is a glass platform where you can step out and be 4000ft above the bottom of the Canyon. Standing on the transparent floor is a real experience, and with professional photographers on hand, it's one of the best places to capture a holiday moment.

Also at the West Rim are bottom landing helicopter tours. These will take you right inside the Canyon, where you can land next to the river and toast the trip with a glass of Champagne and a light picnic. There is even the opportunity to take a Colorado River boat ride.

The West Rim is also home to a number of great walking tracks, and lookout spots like Guano Point and Eagle Point.

South Rim Grand Canyon National Park

While the West Rim is the busiest spot, the South Rim is most famous for its natural beauty and rugged landscape. The basic bus tour will get you out to Arizona, however like the West Rim, you can also add a helicopter ride. The South Rim helicopter ride will take you all the way to the remote North Rim, and back to the South. You will also fly through the Dragoon Corridor, which is the deepest and widest part of the Grand Canyon.

The basic bus tour will take you around key spots, like Yaki Point, and Mather Point. There's also the Grand Canyon village where you can eat, explore, and shop for unique souvenirs.

Deluxe Tours

In addition to basic bus tour tickets, there are also deluxe tours available. These upgraded tours are more personalized, and use a smaller 12 person touring van. Compared to the 40+ passengers on the basic tour, the deluxe tours offer a personalized experience. Passengers will have more freedom to determine rest points and the landmarks/photo stops that they want to visit.

Deluxe or basic, the tours are all inclusive and have no hidden fees. Entrance fees to the park and lunch are included. Tours start from just $80, so these tours are definitely the most affordable way to see the Grand Canyon.

Conclusion

Make something special of this Spring Break, with a Grand Canyon bus tour from Las Vegas. With basic and deluxe options available, and even helicopter rides at both rims, you will find a package that suits you and your budget. Book soon because these tours will sell out fast, and purchase any add-ons at the same time, this way you'll get the best prices.

Enjoy your spring break, and enjoy the Grand Canyon. It truly is one of the most breathtaking places on earth, and now is the perfect time to check it out.
