Best Grand Canyon Tours for 2024
Updated: 12/16/2024
The Grand Canyon is a stunning sight, but just looking at it isn’t nearly enough to experience how special it is. To truly get a sense of the beauty and grandeur of this natural wonder, you have to take some time and really explore. Buck Wild Hummer Tours was created to allow people to see the Grand Canyon from different perspectives and learn more about it and the history of the area. Here are some options to consider when you’re ready to explore this stunning landmark.
Aerial Tours: Soar Above the Grand Canyon on a Helicopter Tour
There’s nothing like a birds-eye view to let you take in just how vast the Grand Canyon really is. With Buck Wild, you can take a helicopter or airplane ride to see the full scope of the canyon and follow the flight with a drive to see that landscape close up.
Start at the Grand Canyon National Park in Tusayan, where you board your helicopter or airplane. During the flight, you’ll hear narration about what you’re seeing and the local history.
You can opt for a 25-minute or 45-minute helicopter tour, followed by one of our popular Hummer tours. The Signature Hummer Tour lasts about two to two-and-a-half hours, while the Sunset Hummer Tour is approximately three hours long and takes in the breathtaking sight of the sun going down over the rim of the canyon.
If an airplane ride is more your style, you can start your journey with a 40 to 50-minute plane ride before your Hummer tour. You will soar over gorgeous areas, including the East Rim, Painted Desert, Zuni Corridor, and Imperial Point.
Hummer Tour: Explore the Grand Canyon in Style
Our Hummer tours are designed to take you through the most fascinating parts of the canyon, letting you see miles of the extraordinary landscape from the climate-controlled comfort of a Hummer. Your trip will be complete with information about the area and opportunities to get out and wander a little.
Along with the previously mentioned Signature and Sunset Tours, we also offer Adventurous Grand Canyon Tours for Families. This starts with a Hummer tour that lasts about two and a half hours, finishing with a box lunch. Next, you head to Raptor Ranch for an up-close encounter with birds of prey, followed by a fossil dig and exploring their dinosaur exhibit.
Hiking Tour: Adventure at Your Own Pace
Of course, hiking in the Grand Canyon is a classic way to see the landscape close-up. A hike will give you much more than bragging rights when you get home. This approach allows you to experience all the sights, sounds, and scents of the terrain for yourself.
You can combine the best of two options with a Signature Hummer Tour with Below the Rim Hiking. This starts with a guided tour through the canyon, taking in some of the most fascinating areas. After your ride, you can stretch your legs with a hike below the South Rim. The hike is roughly one mile long, but if you want to challenge yourself with a longer hike, you can request more time to roam.
