I answer EVERY message - Keith Kravitz

Las Vegas Skywalk

What's the best outdoor attraction in Vegas? By far it's the Skywalk. Famous for letting intrepid travelers walk 70 feet over the edge, the Skywalk is a definite must-do. There's a deluxe version of this tour (my preference) as well as this basic one.

4-in-1 Tour

Best tour ever. And the most comprehensive. This trip leaves no stone unturned! Highlights include the 3,500-foot descent to the bottom. The boat down the majestic Colorado. And a walk on the Glass Bridge. Anyone who does this trip should get a merit badge…

Las Vegas Grand Canyon Deluxe Champagne Picnic w/ Limo & Vegas Strip

Bottom w/ Champagne Picnic

This trip cuts to the chase and does all the exciting stuff first! Go straight to the bottom and celebrate the adventure with a Champagne picnic. There's plenty of time afterward to puff out your chest, stroll the Colorado’s riverbank and declare yourself King of the World!

South Rim (50-Minutes)

The only South Rim tour I recommend if you are visiting the Canyon and don't plan to come back. This tour covers all the bases. Of course, you could walk about, sweat, and see a tiny fraction of the National Park. Or do this puppy and see up to 75 percent of it while basking in the A/C!

Sunset Picnic

The Grand Canyon at sunset. Definitely a bucket-list item. This tour is the last flight of the day. Descends 3,500-feet to the bottom where you enjoy a picnic at the base that includes Champagne! Back on heli, you head west toward the setting sun. This tour comes with an extended tour over the Vegas Strip as the lights come on. This is definitely the trip that will take your vacation "over the top!" Go here for more info...

Best Time to Fly

We in the industry call them "day parts," which is a fancy way of referring to the time of day that helicopters fly. There’s morning, afternoon and evening. After years of doing this, I’ve come to the conclusion that the following timeframes are best in terms of visibility and smooth air.

Las Vegas South Rim Plane

Las Vegas helicopters don't fly to the South Rim. It's too far. So you have to take a plane tour. Which is a great idea considering it takes 5.5 hours one-way to get to this Rim. Need another reason to do it? OK. How about the fact that you can add a helicopter ride to it?!?! I really love this tour and recommend it. Get more details here...
