LV to Grand Canyon tour
 

Please recommend a quality tour company (land not air) in order to take a day trip from Las Vegas to Grand Canyon. I have read the other posts. They simply say there are a variety of tour companies. I am interested in seeing the highlights of the GC - I am not into hiking, mule riding, etc. I just want to see the GC. Thanks

Try Gray Line Las Vegas. They have a 14 hour tour that includes breakfast, lunch and a Exclusive Fred Harvey car tour of the south rim. The tour goes daily and costs $159 per person for adults and $139 for children (3-11). Most day tours of the canyon will not have enough time for the mule rides (which generally need to be reserved ahead of time.) <BR><BR>You can book this by calling them at 800-634-6579,<BR><BR>Have fun.

Sarah, I'm too lazy to repeat the information, but if you do a search of "Grand Canyon," you'll come across two very recent postings about the same thing. However, to make a long story short, check out www.actiontours.com and check out the Grand Canyon West/Colorado River tour. It's fabulous. (Again, search for the other posts where I've offered more info.). Have a great time.

Sarah - Just a warning...a one day land trip to the grand canyon is going to consist of a long bus ride for a couple brief stops at the canyon. Be prepared to be disappointed by the amount of time you spend at the rim vs the travel time. The Canyon is great...once u get there.<BR><BR>If you can afford it and don't mind the small planes, the air trip really is fun...you get to see the canyon from above not to mention hoover dam / vegas from above.<BR><BR>We took the air last year and I know i left thinking it was fun but that I would be miffed if i had spent all day in a bus for the canyon part.<BR><BR>joe

ditto.....a day rest on a bus tour would be great.if you can swing it a helicopter tour is fantastic....of the whole canyon...not just the west Rim!.....esp.if you`ll never do it again....
