Grand Canyon National Park Bus Trips for Las Vegas Vacationers!

Vegas is the ideal holiday destination and once you're there, you can take a Grand Canyon motor coach trip to add even more excitement. Coach trips are a fantastic value and they are one of the best ways to see all the amazing natural beauty of the region. You'll find plenty of excitement in the city of Vegas. But you will enjoy taking a nice break for the day. And I've always found that the canyon is a sure bet for getting recharged during an extended Vegas vacation. The ToursThe coach trips depart from Vegas every day at seven in the morning. The tours last all day so they have to leave early. You can take a tour any day of the year, even on holidays. Be prepared to spend some time on the bus. It will take you 2 hours to make the trip to the West Rim and 5 hours to make it to the South Rim. Double those times and you can see that there's considerable time spent on the road. It will be evening when you get back to your hotel. Will you be ready to go out and hit The Strip afterward? If you want, just keep in mind, you might be pretty tired when you get back. Still, you shouldn't schedule anything before 9 p.m. so you'll have plenty of time. West RimThe West Rim is a lot of fun because there are so many things for you to do there. Of course, there's your basic bus tour that gets you into the Park and drops you off. You can also choose from a variety of upgrades like a helicopter ride add-on and float trip down the river. Or you can do the Grand Canyon Skywalk. This glass bridge allows you to walk out past the edge of the rim as much as 70 feet. You will stand 4000 feet above the canyon floor. It is a very thrilling thing to experience. Quick word about the helicopter ride: This is actually something that can only be done at the West Rim and no other place inside the National Park. That's because the West Rim is owned by the Hualapai Indians and they're the ones who granted landing permission to the tour operators. South Rim Coach TripsSince it takes so long to get to the South Rim, you might think everyone chooses West Rim tours instead. South Rim tours are very popular though. That's because the South Rim has many well known rock formations and natural landmarks. It is definitely the rim of choice if you are mostly interested in scenic wonders. Let's ConcludeIf you are in Vegas, you don't want to pass up the chance to take a bus tour of the Grand Canyon. You can go to the South or West Rim from Vegas. If you go to the West, consider adding some side trips into your package. If you go to the South, make sure your camera is fully charged because it's going to be a picture-taking frenzy. Wherever you decide to go, be sure to book your tour online. It's where you'll find the best selection and deals.
