Description
Embark on an adventure that encompasses both natural beauty and historical significance. Your tour starts with complimentary pick-up from your Las Vegas hotel and transport to our terminal in a luxury motorcoach. Here you’ll board a helicopter for a thrilling flight to the Grand Canyon’s West Rim. On the way passengers will enjoy views of the Mojave Desert, Hoover Dam, and Lake Mead. Upon arriving at Grand Canyon West, your helicopter will descend 4000 feet to the canyon floor and land near the Colorado River where a champagne picnic meal awaits. After marvelling at the natural wonder of the Grand Canyon, you will travel on to Eldorado Canyon for a fully-guided ground tour of the Techatticup Mine.
Learn about the miners from near and far who descended upon this area during Nevada’s biggest mining boom. After learning about the site’s historical significance, jump on a Baja Jeep or ATV and tour the beautiful desert landscape. Enjoy a boxed lunch and champagne toast in Eldorado Canyon before heading back to Las Vegas. We transport you back to your hotel after an adventure-filled day in the beautiful and historic Grand Canyon and Eldorado Canyon.
