Lake Mead Tours

Lake Mead is a very popular tour destination for those who visit Las vegas and Grand Canyon National

Park. Actual Lake Mead and Las Vegas Tours here include Hoover Dam tours and dinner cruises. Grand

Canyon helicopter tours cover the Lake Mead Area with flights over nearby Boulder City, Black Canyon,

Hoover Dam, Fortification Hill, Valley Of Fire and Bowl Of Fire. Some of these flights will land at Grand

Canyon West for sightseeing at Grand Canyon Sky Walk on Eagle Point. Others will land at the Hualapai

Indian Reservation. Too many possibilities to list here but I will be compiling the best in the coming months.


In this Virtual Grand Canyon Tours series we fly out of Boulder City Airport and end up above Lake Mead

with a birds eye view of the west end of the Lake Mead National Recreation Area.


So before you visit, feel free to enjoy this Virtual Grand Canyon Tours Series.

Colorado River Rafting Flyovers

The Colorado River in the Grand Canyon and Lake Mead area is simply a place of beauty, excitement and

adventure. There are several rafting tour operators that can be found online that traverse these rapids

starting from Lee's Ferry way on the northeast side of the Grand Canyon near Lake Powell and ending

downstream as far as the Hoover Dam. Grand Canyon Helicopter tours are also popular here and I will be

compiling the best to provide to you in the coming months.


In this Virtual Grand Canyon Tours Series we take a river hugging low level flight upstream over some of

the most popular rapids on the Colorado River. After descending to the river after take off we begin at

Wards Cove Rapids then proceed upstream over many rapids (see the list below) during the course of

seven tour series segments then fly out of the canyon at Vulcan's Throne.


So until your next visit, enjoy skimming above the river in this Virtual Grand Canyon Tour series.

Grand Canyon West

Grand Canyon West is another huge attraction to those who visit Las Vegas and Grand Canyon National

Park. In this Virtual Grand Canyon Tours series we follow the Colorado River at a higher altitude near the

eastern part of the west Rim. As we follow the river eastward we slowly see the massive center of the

Grand Canyon draw closer and closer. Each of the rapids we fly over are identified to help you follow

along on the Google Map provided. We finally land at Grand canyon Airport in Tusayan. The actual

tours available for this part of the Grand Canyon are plentiful and I am in the process of compiling the

best for you. There are many things to do at the Grand Canyon West Rim.

Grand Canyon South Rim

The Grand Canyon South Rim is at the heart when it comes to Grand Canyon lodging. Grand Canyon

hotels are mainly located around Tusayan and Grand Canyon Village. Real Grand Canyon tours here

include nearby vistas like Mather Point, Bright Angel Point, Yavapai Point, Desert View Watch Tower and

hikes down to the bottom of the canyon. Helicopter tours and airplane tours originating from the South Rim give

you spectacular views of such sights as the Tower of Ra, Dragon Corridor, Kaibab National Forest, the

Painted Desert, Marble Canyon, Point Imperial and of course the Colorado River to as far as Glen Canyon

and Lake Powell. There is now shortage of things to do at the Grand Canyon South Rim.


In this Virtual Grand Canyon Tours series that starts around Grand Canyon Village and Tusayan, we fly

just above the canyon rim following the Colorado River up stream all the way up to Lake Powell where we

land at nearby Page Municipal Airport. Please sit back, relax and enjoy.
