Keith Kravitz' Grand Canyon Tours
This Week's Hot Tours...
Hey it's Keith Kravitz and here's a list of what's hot when it comes to Grand Canyon helicopter tours from Las Vegas & South Rim...
Sunset Tours
There are certain times during the day when you want to see the Canyon and sunset is definitely one of them. Because these flights leave just once a day, they are super limited. If you want to do one, book it well in advance as they sell out quick. More details...
Fly Over It or Land?
It's a huge question: Fly over the Canyon or get out of the aircraft and explore it on your own two feet. Personally, I side with the later. But there are a ton of travelers who take the all-air option. Find the option that makes the most sense to you. Read more...  
Skywalk Heli
The Grand Canyon Skywalk is a monster-sized platform bridge that lets you walk 70 feet over the edge until you're standing some 4K feet over the bottom. Is it worth doing? Heck yes! Especially if you combine it into one of these three heli packages. More details...
South Rim 50
The South Rim was made for helicopter tours. It's a million-acre wilderness that only a helicopter can bring down to size. The issue is which tour? In this article, I go over your options and then I pinpoint the one I think delivers the best value and the most Canyon. Read more...
Strip & Canyon! 
Headed to Las Vegas? Awesome, because there's one helicopter tour that I've just got to recommend. It's the one that takes off from The Strip, goes over Lake Mead and Hoover Dam, and then lands for a Champagne picnic. Think that's cool? Wait for this: On the way back you fly down The Strip! More details...
Vegas 2 South Rim
Folks, Las Vegas helicopters don't fly to the South Rim. It's too far. So you've got to take a direct plane flight. Which is great because you get to Grand Canyon South in 60 minutes flat. But wait. It gets better. With this particular package, you also get to do a South Rim heli ride to the North Rim and back. Holy Moly! Read more...
Front Seats
Helicopters have six seats. Three in front and three in back. Where you sit is based on total weight of all passengers, which is only known at check in. However, there are ways to improve the odds, like grabbing a front seat request during the online booking process. Yeah you'll want to bookmark this article. More Details...
