GRAND CANYON WESTERN RANCH OVERNIGHT CABIN STAY GETAWAY BY HELICOPTER AND GROUND TOUR

An Unforgettable Grand Canyon Getaway with Air and Ground Experiences

This Grand Canyon adventure includes a helicopter air tour above and below the West Rim of the Grand Canyon combined with with a rustic overnight stay at the historic Grand Canyon Western Ranch. The experience begins at our VIP Heliport, just minutes from the Las Vegas Strip, where you'll board a state-of-the-art helicopter for an awe-inspiring flight to one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World.

Your highly trained Pilot will guide you with live commentary as you soar over iconic landmarks including the Hoover Dam, the Colorado River, the Mike O’Callaghan–Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge, and Fortification Hill, an extinct volcano that paints the landscape with vibrant colors. From there, the real spectacle begins as you enter over 15 miles of Grand Canyon airspace, experiencing both above and below-the-rim views that descend 1,500 feet into the Canyon. Marvel at towering rock formations and ancient geological layers—each revealing the earth’s history from over 250 to 550 million years ago.

After the helicopter portion of your tour, you’ll land at the Grand Canyon Western Ranch, where the spirit of the Old West still lingers. Outlaws once roamed these lands, and now you get to stay in one of the Ranch’s charming Rustic Pine Cabins. Once checked in, you can choose from optional on-site activities (payable locally) like a guided horseback ride and buffalo safari, a horse-drawn wagon ride, or the Old West Shooting Range —all subject to weather and availability. The horseback rides are suitable for both beginners and experienced riders (ages 9 and up).

As evening falls, enjoy a Western-style dinner at the Ranch Headquarters, followed by live Western music under a star-filled desert sky. Gather by the campfire with a cocktail from the Ranch House Western Bar and listen to Cowboy balladeers sing traditional songs of the frontier.

The next morning, wake up to a hearty ranch-style breakfast before departing back to Las Vegas in a comfortable Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, giving you time to take in the peaceful desert views as you pass through The Joshua Tree Forest, which offers a singular desert experience—a relatively dense, ancient stand of these iconic yuccas nestled among Western Arizona’s mountains and desert.
