Going to Las Vegas for the Valentine's holiday? Then consider taking a Grand Canyon bus tour. These trips leave once a day in the a.m. and go to the West Rim and the South Rim. But book early as seats sell out quickly.
Bus tours take a whole day, and depart at 7AM. On the way to the Canyon you will stop off at the Hoover Dam, which offers a great photo opportunity at this famous landmark. You could even take another full-day tour on a different date, if you want to fully explore the Hoover Dam and Lake Mead.
The Grand Canyon West Rim
West Rim
You have several options when it comes to touring the West Rim. The bus gets you to the West Rim, and from there you can add on the adventures you want to have. Some popular things to do include a scenic float trip on the Colorado River and a thrilling helicopter descent to the Canyon floor.
Grand Canyon South Rim Tours
South Rim
Just like at the West Rim, you can choose from basic or more inclusive packages. The basic bus tour will have you exploring the area from the ground, and there are also helicopter tours available. The 30 minute helicopter will take you all the way to the remote North Rim, and back again.
No Hidden Fees
All-Inclusive
Bus tours are budget friendly. Out of all the Canyon tours available, a bus tour is the most affordable, yet you still have the option to add on other activities that cost more such as VIP passes to the Skywalk or a helicopter flight.
The days on and around Valentine's Day, are some of the busiest of the year. This means that you will have to book early, and I recommend booking at least two weeks in advance. This will ensure that your seats are locked in. When you book online, you will get the best deals, just make sure that you complete your purchase with a credit card so that you can take advantage of the lower prices.
Conclusion
I hope that this article has inspired you to take a Valentine's Day trip that will be remembered for a lifetime. The Grand Canyon is an incredibly romantic place, and there are few parks that offer the same level of beauty and adventure. I love the bottom landing Helicopter add-on at the West Rim, and the South Rim is made even better when you take a short flight to the North Rim. Whatever you end up choosing, remember to enjoy the day, book online, and book with your credit card for the best price. If you thought Las Vegas was special, just wait until you head out to the Grand Canyon!
