    After hotel pickup, board your state-of-the-art helicopter for a 70-minute (round-trip) scenic air tour of the Grand Canyon West Rim. Your flight will take off from Boulder City, where builders of the Hoover Dam (formally the Boulder Dam) lived during the dam’s construction in the 1930s. Enjoy panoramic, 180-degree views of the impressive Hoover Dam, the bypass bridge and Black Canyon, and fly past the extinct and colorful volcano, Fortification Hill.

  • Grand Canyon West (Pass By)

    Make sure to have your camera ready, as around every corner you’ll see cathedral buttresses and pillars with amazing natural vivid colors. After leaving the Grand Canyon, enjoy views of other natural wonders in the wilderness of the rugged Mojave Desert.

  • Black Canyon City Visitor's Center and Chamber of Commerce.

    Upon landing in Boulder City, if you choose the rafting trip, you'll take a short drive down to the Colorado River launch area for your river float at the base of the Hoover Dam and the newly constructed bypass bridge. Here you'll be greeted by your friendly guide, who will help you board your comfortable river raft or kayak.

Just stunning - A once in a lifetime trip

Published on Sep, 2024

The trip was amazing - the organisation was excellent, and the customer service provided by Five Star Helicopters was first class. The Helicopter trip, taking in Hoover Dam, The Grand Canyon and ending with the Las Vegas Strip was incredible, and the Rafting down the Colorado was an unforgettable experience also.

Breathtaking adventure!

The helicopter trip was...

Published on Jul, 2024

The helicopter trip was good but the kayaking was even better. Amazing guide and beautiful scenery - great to be able to get in and have a swim on a couple of occasions ignore the heli guide who said it’s too cold just the perfect thing to do when it’s 40 degrees plus. Amazing!
