Tip: How To Get 35% Off A Grand Canyon Helicopter Tour By Papillon
Whenever you plan a holiday in Las Vegas, you have to add one of Papillon Helicopter's trips to the Grand Canyon
. Annually, more than 600,000 people choose Papillon, making it the favorite operator of trips to Grand Canyon West and the South Rim from Las Vegas.Papillon operates a fleet of modern-day helicopters. These aircraft have been designed expressly for sightseeing, featuring stadium-style seats, over-sized climate-controlled cabins, wraparound full-view windshields, and trip narratives that have bee pre-recorded into 11 different languages.
Papillon tours leave from two airports: McCarran International and the Boulder City Municipal Airport. Trips include pick up and drop off at most major Las Vegas resort-hotels. Upon arrival in Vegas, it's recommended that you confirm your tour.
Papillon flies Grand Canyon West and the South Rim. There aren't any direct helicopter flights from Las Vegas to the Grand Canyon South - you must book a plane tour and bundle in a helicopter ride.
Grand Canyon West is closest to Las Vegas. It's 120 miles to the east and requires a 45 minute helicopter flight. This part of the Canyon, known as the West Rim, is quite popular with Vegas vacationers for two reasons: 1) It's home to the famous Grand Canyon Skywalk; and 2) it's the only place where you can fly to the bottom of the Grand Canyon.
The South Rim is located 270 miles east of Las Vegas. The airplane flight, which is spectacular, is 45-minutes and touches down at Grand Canyon Airport (elevation 6,000 feet). Here, you will deplane and board your helicopter for a fantastic ride into the Dragoon Corridor, the deepest, widest section of the Canyon, before looping back at the North Rim. Papillon's best South Rim tour is called the North Canyon.
Pricing is similar for West and South rim flights and start around $280 pp. The cost goes up the more upgrades you add, like the Skywalk, river rafting, or the EcoStar 130. The best deals are available on Papillon's website where the company posts its best promotional prices that oftentimes save you up to 35% off retail!
Expect to spend a full day on these Papillon helicopter tours (there are no overnight packages with lodging at this time), making them ideal for Las Vegas visitors who want a quick yet satisfying Grand Canyon experience that puts them back on the Strip for a show or dinner with friends.
