Your Helicopter Flight includes Multilingual Headset Narration as you soar over both the North and South Rims, over the Kaibab National Forest, across the deepest and widest part of the South Rim. Gaze down nearly one mile below at the mighty Colorado River that runs through the Grand Canyon. Incredible views of the Tower of Ra and Vishnu Schist, before flying back to the terminal through Dragon Corridor, one of the most photographed aerial regions in the Canyon. The 45 minute Helicopter Tour flies further east for even more viewpoints.
SEE IT FROM THE GROUND
Drive less than a mile through the quaint town of Tusayan and arrive at the Buck Wild Terminal in just a few minutes. Climb aboard the Buck Wild vehicle, a former military Humvee customized to provide you with the most comfortable way to explore the viewpoints. Our vehicles have comfortable, front facing, stadium style seats that provide excellent views from all seats. During the warm Spring and Summer months, enjoy an open air ride; during the cooler Fall and Winter months, rest assured you will be warm and toasty inside the heated vehicle with transparent sides and tours, and bundle up in the provided blankets for even more warmth. Your professional guide will take you to 3-4 of the best viewpoints in the South Rim, with plenty of time to explore the rim and capture unforgettable photos.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR NON U.S. RESIDENTS ON A BUCK WILD HUMMER TOUR
Effective January 1, 2026, the United States federal government has enacted changes for entrance fees to Grand Canyon National Park for NON U.S. Residents. NON U.S. Resident passengers on a commercial tour can choose from the 2 options below to cover their Grand Canyon National Park Entrance Fee:
OPTION 1 (Recommended): Purchase the new Non Resident America the Beautiful Pass for $250. This new pass will cover the entry fee on a commercial tour (or in a Private Vehicle) for the Pass Holder plus up to 3 additional adults (ages 16 and older). This pass is valid at thousands of federal recreation locations and park, and is valid for 12 months from the date of purchase.
You must present this pass when you check in for your Hummer Tour to avoid the $100 per adult (ages 16 and older) at check in.
You can purchase a DIGITAL Version of the NON U.S. Resident America the Beautiful Pass Online. You may also purchase a Physical Version of this pass at over 1,000 Federal Locations, as well as several locations in the Town of Tusayan.
OPTION 2: Pay the $100 per adult (ages 16 and older) Non Resident Entrance Fee prior to the start of your Hummer Tour. This fee will be available to pay online, by phone, or in person at Buck Wild Hummer Tours. This $100 fee goes directly to the National Park Service.
