5 Buying Tips For Grand Canyon Airplane Tours

By Paulette Neary


It is now spring and summer is right around the corner, which means that it's the perfect time to start planning a vacation. If you want this year to be extra special, then you will need a tour package that is like no other. For that, you don't need to look any further than Grand Canyon airplane tours from Las Vegas.

Here are a few tried and tested tips you can use to help plan the best trip possible.

#1 Book a Tour Online

It's very easy to buy your tour online. You can easily search all the available tours and book the one you want. Not only that, you'll get the lowest price when you book your tour online. The Internet rate is lower because you book the tour yourself and avoid fees added on by a sales agent. The low price and convenience is nice, but the best reason to book your tour online is that you can lock in your seats so you won't have to worry about them being sold out on tour day.

#2 Book Early

Spring and summer mean that the Canyon will be busy. So that you can be sure that you have your ticket at the best price, make sure that you book in advance. My recommendation is that you book at least two weeks in advance, or as soon as you have confirmed your hotel bookings. Never book too close to the day you want to fly. Ticket prices go up when you book closer to 48 hours of the flight schedule, so always plan in advance.

#3 Book a Window Seat

All seats on the plane provide good views, but the window seat offers the best viewing experience. Buying your tour early means you have a better opportunity of getting a window seat and the ultimate views on your flight.

#4 Choose a Landing Airplane Tour

You can book an airplane tour that flies over the Canyon, or you can book one that lands there. Landing tours offer adventure and the chance to see the Canyon from the ground. There are many fun activities at the Canyon such as hiking, visiting scenic lookouts, shopping, taking a helicopter ride to the Canyon floor, and walking on the glass Skywalk bridge.

#5 Head to the South Rim for a Unique Adventure

When you fly from Las Vegas, you can head straight to the South Rim. It takes only an hour to fly out there, which is much faster than the almost 6 hour bus tours that operate. There you can fly over in a plane, or add a helicopter flight. There's a longer helicopter tour at the South Rim which takes you to the North Rim, as well as out to the eastern boundary of the National Park. In this tour, you will be able to view over 75% of the National Park from the air. It is well worth the ticket price.

Conclusion

Hopefully, you can use this information to plan a fun and memorable airplane tour. Be sure to buy your tour early so you'll have the best selection in tour options and so you get the best price.
