Grand Canyon Skywalk

The Grand Canyon Skywalk takes you over the edge on the first-ever 4,000-foot high glass bridge. This attraction is located only 2 ½ hours away from Las Vegas by road and only 45 minutes by air. Grand Canyon Skywalk is part of Grand Canyon West, which is most accessible from Las Vegas. And while you're in the area, popular Skywalk trips include eagle-eye views of Lake Mead and Hoover Dam on a premier helicopter or airplane tour from Las Vegas .

The Grand Canyon Skywalk is a rare architectural accomplishment that extends 70 feet past the edge of the West Rim of the Grand Canyon. Visitors of the Grand Canyon Skywalk can walk over the western rim of the Grand Canyon on a clear, glass-floored structure built to withstand over 71 million pounds of weight, and experience the sensation of seeing the canyon fall straight away below their feet. The Skywalk was made to withstand high winds, harsh winter weather conditions, and forces of nature beyond what is typical for the area. The Skywalk is so strong it can hold the weight of 71 loaded 747 passenger planes stacked on top of one another.

How to See the Skywalk When Traveling from Las Vegas

This amazing structure located on the Hualapai Tribe's Grand Canyon West, is best accessed on an array of half-day and full-day tour options from Las Vegas. There are several Grand Canyon tour companies from Las Vegas that package the Skywalk with helicopter tours, airplane or ground tours, plus tours of Hoover Dam on the way to the Skywalk. Most Grand Canyon Las Vegas tour companies offer hotel pick-up and customizable add-on side trips. If you choose to visit the Skywalk without a tour company, use the hop-on-hop-off shuttle to tour Grand Canyon West's three main points of interest. We recommend upgrading your entrance package to include everything from horseback riding to Canyon floor helicopter landings to pontoon boat rides on the Colorado River.

Grand Canyon Skywalk

Grand Canyon Skywalk, also referred to as the Grand Canyon Glass Bridge, is located at Grand Canyon West, situated on Hualapai tribal lands, consisting of just less than 1,000,000 acres. It is approximately 120 miles east of Las Vegas, Nevada, and about 70 miles north of Kingman, Arizona. Access to the Glass Bridge is also available through the Grand Canyon West Airport. The Skwyalk is a horseshoe shaped steel frame with a glass floor and sides that overhangs 70 feet (21 m) from the Grand Canyon's rim looking through down 4,000 feet to the bottom of the canyon. The Skywalk is most easily accessed through Kingman or Las Vegas as opposed to the more commonly visited South Rim accessed through Williams or Tusayan, AZ. The Grand Canyon Skywalk is both owned and managed by the Hualapai Tribe, therefore specific rules must be followed in order to enjoy this attraction. The tribe itself has about 2,300 members with Peach Springs on Highway 66 being the location of the tribal headquarters. The Hualapai Tribe also operates a hotel, restaurant, and gift shop in Peach Springs. If you want to visit the Grand Canyon Skywalk, staying at a hotel in Las Vegas,NV or Kingman, AZ will put you in striking distance of this attraction.

Book Your Stay in Las Vegas When Visiting the Skywalk

A minimum tour package is $68-$71 per person to interact with this attraction. There are several packages available that include meals, helicopter rides, and river rafting opportunities.

Grand Canyon Sywalk Heads Up

Cameras are not permitted on the Skywalk itself; however, visitors can still be photographed on the Skywalk by someone not on the structure. Additionally, tour packages include a photo opportunity with genuine Hualapai Tribe members, with the option to purchase photos later.

• How big is the Grand Canyon Skywalk?
• How strong is the Grand Canyon Skywalk? The Skywalk is strong enough to bear the weight of seventy 747 passenger jets.
• How high is the is the Grand Canyon Skywalk over the canyon floor? 4,000 feet
• How much did it cost to build the Skywalk? According to Hualapai officials, the cost of the Skywalk was $30 million. Future developments include restaurants, a museum, movie theater, VIP lounge, and other amenities.

How was the Grand Canyon Skywalk Built?

The Skywalk construction was completed and opened to the public on March 28, 2007, following four years of meticulous engineering efforts. Using a combination of modern techniques and ancient methods, the engineers implemented the rod and plate method, reminiscent of the one used in the construction of the Egyptian pyramids, to extend the Skywalk out over the Grand Canyon's edge. This innovative approach allowed for an unobstructed view from the bridge, providing visitors with a breathtaking experience.

The foundation of the Skywalk was carefully constructed by anchoring support beams deep into the red limestone bedrock of the site, acting as counterweight rods. This strategic placement allows the Skywalk to delicately extend beyond the canyon's edge without requiring direct support from underneath. To ensure structural integrity, highly skilled craftsmen utilized 1.2 million pounds of steel and glass in the construction process. The bridge features specially designed glass units capable of accommodating up to 800 individuals simultaneously.

Moreover, the engineering prowess behind the Skywalk is evident in its robust design. The structure is engineered to withstand significant forces, including an 8.0 magnitude earthquake, wind speeds of up to 100 miles per hour, and the weight equivalent to seventy-one 747 airplanes. This remarkable engineering feat showcases the meticulous planning and attention to detail that went into creating the Skywalk, making it a remarkable modern marvel for visitors to behold.

What is the Historical Significance of Eagle Point?

The historical significance of Eagle Point and the Eagle Rock formation lies in the rich cultural traditions and legends of the Hualapai people. According to the Hualapai myth, a giant eagle played a pivotal role in saving the Hualapai tribe from a great flood that carved the Grand Canyon. This eagle is said to have turned into stone at Eagle Point and symbolizes the protection and guidance provided to the Hualapai people during times of peril.

The eagle rock formation at Eagle Point serves as a tangible connection to this mythological narrative, allowing visitors to witness and appreciate the integral role that the eagle plays in Indigenous cultures. Not only is the Eagle Rock formation a geological wonder, but it also represents the enduring spirit and resilience of the Hualapai people.

Visitors to Eagle Point can view the Eagle Rock formation from various vantage points, including the Skywalk and the Sky View Restaurant, where they can observe the awe-inspiring sight of the eagle preserved in stone. This iconic landmark serves as a reminder of the interconnectedness between nature, mythology, and the cultural heritage of the Hualapai tribe.

The large tour buses hold up to 55 passengers. Each bus has an on board restroom, head and foot rests, TVs for entertainment, and individually controlled air conditioning.  There is plenty of room to stand up as well as storage for bags and souvenirs.

Whether you are traveling with your family, friends, or solo, we can help you find just the right option for a day trip from Las Vegas.

Tours To Grand Canyon National Park

You will love taking one of the Grand Canyon tours to the park, as you can plan this journey anytime. The park is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. While the South Rim is quite popular with tourists, the North Rim of the canyon is only open from the middle part of May to October. Therefore, North Rim tours are not as popular as a South Rim day trip or a West Rim bus tour.

Canyon Facts

Before you take one of the day trips from Las Vegas to the South Rim, it’s nice to know some facts about the canyon itself. The canyon is 277 miles in length. The Colorado River, at the canyon’s base, has carved out the rock of the canyon for about 6 million years. South Rim of the canyon became part of the US National Park system on February 26, 1919. Grand Canyon National Park is the second-most visited national park in the US after the Great Smoky Mountain National Park in Tennessee. The park sees about 6 million visitors annually.

For answers to more questions, such as, where is the Grand Canyon located, check out the  national park website .

How Long It Takes To Reach Your Destination

If you go on one of the Las Vegas tours by bus, it will take about 4.5 hours to get to the park entrance. That is why it leaves early in the morning at 6:00 am for the regular and rim VIP trips. We want you to be able to spend at least three hours inside the park once we reach the South Rim. From Las Vegas the park is about 280 miles away.

Travel Along Famous Route 66

The South Rim of the Grand Canyon is visited the most often of any location. You will love taking the rim day trip to the South Rim, as you don’t have to check in at a terminal, nor have to wait in line. Enjoy the desert-scape of the Mohave Desert, as one of the buses takes you to your destination along the famous Route 66.

Grand Canyon Village

One of the areas of the most well known areas is the Grand Canyon Village. This is one of the featured attractions of  Grand Canyon tours  and rim tours within the park. This trip from Las Vegas may be taken by a comfortable bus, as a guided walking tour, or as rim day trip for small or large groups.

Some Of The Rim Hotels

If you wish to spend a longer time in the park and not take one of the rim day trip excursions, you can arrange to stay at one of the rim hotels as part of your experience. One of the popular hotels on the South Rim is the historic El Tovar, which features 78 rooms. The Bright Angel Hotel feature 86 units. Two hotels that sit on the canyon’s rim include the Kachina Lodge and the Thunderbird Lodge. Therefore, you have several options if you don’t want to hurry back to Las Vegas.

How To Make The Most Of Your Time In The South Rim

You will find, once you enter Grand Canyon National Park, that three sections are part of the South Rim. These sections include Desert View Road, Hermit Road, and the Village. Each part offers a slightly different canyon experience when taking a South Rim day trip.

These sections are well known by travelers to the South Rim, unlike the areas of the North Rim. The North Rim is more remote and does not feature interactive buildings and activities. It is also closed in the winter time, which makes Grand Canyon North Rim tours rare journeys.

For example, you may want to rent a bicycle and bike along the 7-mile-long Hermit Road at the South Rim. Hermit Road begins at the Village and ends at the landmark of Hermit’s Rest. You can either bike or visit the viewpoints along the road by shuttle. The shuttle runs from March 1 until November 30. You must hike or take a bike from December to February. We recommend biking along the road, as it is easier than hopping on and off a shuttle, and much quicker than walking.

Popular South Rim Viewpoints

The viewpoints in the South Rim will give you some stunning views of the surrounding rockscape. Some of the popular venues include Mather Point, Yavapai Point, and Bright Angel Lodge. Mather Point can be seen at the beginning of a South Rim tour, while Yavapai point is at the halfway point on a walking tour, and Bright Angel Lodge is the ending point. All provide amazing and different views into the canyon.

Walking The South Rim Trail Of Time

You might also want to walk the South Rim Trail. This trail accommodates hikers and walkers of various skills and abilities, as most of the trail is paved and flat. The trail, which follows the perimeter of the rim, stretches 13 miles or 21 km from Hermit’s Rest to the South Kaibab trailhead. If you don’t want to walk all the 13 miles, you can always choose a small part of the trail to walk and use the shuttle part of the time.

Bright Angel Trail

One of the popular trails on the South Rim is the Bright Angel Trail. This trail, which is easily accessible, begins at Grand Canyon Village. Bright Angel Trail begins at the South Rim and finishes at Bright Angel Campground, close to the Colorado River. In total, the trail is about 9.5 miles in length and descends almost 4,400 feet. Like the South Rim Trail, you can hike part of the trail on one of the day trips, as it is difficult to walk the trail and come back in the same day. Therefore, we recommend that you hike part of the trail and turn around.

When you take one of our Las Vegas tours, you can make the trip extra special by adding some unique activities. As mentioned, the  Grand Canyon tours  are adaptable to allow you to add any excursions you are interested in. This may mean you want to include one of the airplane tours at the South Rim, which can be arranged if you book in advance. Seeing Bright Angel Lodge and the expansive South Rim of the canyon from an air tour is an incredible site to see. Keep in mind that many activities are not possible during a one-day tour. However, you can take a bus tour to the canyon, stay the night, and return the following day on a bus tour.

Whatever form your tour takes, we are here to help make the trip fun and memorable. Taking one of the tours and communicating with the tour guides makes day trip tours in Grand Canyon locations that much more memorable.

Shortening Your Excursion Along Bright Angel Trail

One of the hiking options you can take on a canyon day trip along Bright Angel Trail is walking 1.5 miles to the resthouse. The path is a 3-mile round trip that allows you to descend a switchback trail on the rim.

More ambitious hikers hike the Bright Angel Trail to the Indian Garden, which offers a 9-mile roundtrip adventure. After you pass the resthouse on this trail, the path levels out, although you are still descending down the trail. Don’t try to go past the Indian Garden in the summer, as the thermometer can read triple-digit Fahrenheit temperatures.

Plateau Point

If you choose to take the trail when it is cooler, you may pursue an adventure down Bright Angel Trail to Plateau Point. This 12-mile round-trip hike is beyond Indian Garden, and permits trail-goers to see a great view of the Colorado River.

A Tip For Hikers Who Hike Bright Angel Trail

One tip to remember when hiking the Bright Angel Trail is that going down the trail is much easier than returning, as you are walking up an incline. If you take the Bright Angel Trail, it is best to begin early, and arm yourself with plenty of water and salty snacks. You should also give yourself ample time to return from your hike, back to the rim. If you go on one of our day trips, you should pursue the 3-mile resthouse turnaround trail.

Visiting The IMAX Theater At The Visitor Center

If you want to forego hiking altogether, you can enjoy a movie at the IMAX theater in the park Visitors Center. The 34-minute Grand Canyon production may not be the same as seeing the canyon itself, but it will give you a good introduction to the canyon and its history. It also allows you to escape the heat in the summer in a comfortable, air-conditioned theater.

Visiting The Grand Canyon Skywalk At The West Rim

You can also experience tours to the West Rim and Skywalk. A Skywalk tour will take you to  Grand Canyon West , owned and inhabited by the Hualapai tribe. When taking a West Rim bus tour, you can travel on a fully equipped bus and take in the sights from panoramic windows. A West Rim guided tour is also available for day travelers. This type of trip is popular, as it permits visitors to interact and engage in the tour activity.

If you are vacationing with a small group in Las Vegas, ask about a VIP West Rim bus tour for small groups. The transportation provider can take up to 12 guests to the West Rim in a Mercedes Sprinter. One of the tour guides will serve as your personal tour escort.

Some Facts About The Skywalk

The Grand Canyon Skywalk is a must-see attraction at Grand Canyon West. The bridge is made of reinforced glass creating a see-through platform that allows visitors to see down to the canyon floor. Don’t worry about the sturdiness of the glass bridge. It can hold as many as 70 jets, fully loaded with travelers. Only 120 visitors are allowed on the bridge at one time.

Zion National Park And Hoover Dam

A tour can also take you to Zion National Park, located in Utah. This popular tour option allows you to explore Zion Canyon in Southern Utah in the day and return to Las Vegas at night. If you would like to take a short, half-day tour to the Hoover Dam, we also offer this tour. You can take an express tour or one of the classic Hoover Dam tours, which has an underground tour of the powerplant.

Unique Grand Canyon Activities

A rim bus tour may lead to the South Rim or West Rim. Grand Canyon tours can take various forms depending on what you would like to see and do. For example, you may want to schedule a mule ride as one of the activities on a canyon trip.

This type of pursuit must be scheduled well in advance, as it is one of the unique outdoor activities at the canyon. You just need to decide which hotel you want to include on your itinerary. You may wish to fly to the West Rim and view the Skywalk, or go toward the North Rim or South Rim on one of the Grand Canyon tours. We can customize a travel plan according to your needs and preferences when you take a tour. In addition to the regular excursions, we can also work with you to plan a personalized journey.

Other Travel Experiences

Considering how breathtaking the Grand Canyon is, it is easy to see why national park tours are such popular escapes from Las Vegas. Grand Canyon tours can also include the following activities:

• Grand Canyon National park tours can be lead by a professional tour guides or led by rangers in the park.
• A railway excursion into the park by an old-fashioned steam locomotive. This type of adventure tour is available during the summer months.
• Grand Canyon Village is where you can see historic sites. You can take the shuttle or walk the length of the village, which has been proclaimed a historic landmark site.
• Hoover Dam tours  are offered as half-day tours to the Hoover Dam.

Best Times To Visit

Grand Canyon Destinations can arrange to have you taken to Zion National Park, the Grand Canyon, or Hoover Dam. Peak season at the canyon are the summer months, leaving spring and fall less crowded times to visit. Not only is the weather more temperate, the number of people thin out during these times. If you travel from June to September, expect to see larger crowds.

By taking one of the tours, you can get to your destination without worrying about parking or access. A day trip to the South Rim or West Rim is always a fun travel choice from Las Vegas. It also gives you a break in your regular vacation routine.

What To Expect On A South Rim Or West Rim Journey

The travel time to the South Rim of the canyon is longer than to the West Rim. The tour buses leave around 6:00 AM for the South Rim. If you visit the West Rim, the tour bus will pick you up from or near your hotel at around 6:00 AM also due to the entrance lines getting busy later in the morning.

What To Wear At The Grand Canyon

When visiting any part of the Grand Canyon, make sure you dress in layers and wear sunscreen. The sun can reflect strongly off canyon walls. The weather can also change in an instant, especially if you go from one elevation to the next. Be prepared when you visit Zion National Park or the canyon. The walls of the canyons capture the heat of the sun during the summer and the trails can be especially dangerous when it snows.

While the surrounding sights around Las Vegas are beautiful, you still have to make sure that you stay protected from the outside elements. We can help with all your Grand Canyon travel needs. Take one of the canyon tours here at Grand Canyon Destinations, or choose to travel to Utah. The friendly tour guides and well-equipped buses will make any initial tour of the sites informative and interesting.

Grand Canyon Skywalk Helicopter Tours

Express Helicopter Tour with VIP Skywalk

After soaring across the Southwestern desert, this helicopter tour will land at the West Rim of the Grand Canyon. From there, a shuttle will transport you to one of the most famous lookouts in the Grand Canyon: Eagle Point. In 2007, this gorgeous section of the canyon also became home to the Skywalk at Grand Canyon.

Disembark the shuttle and cut straight to the front of the line with a VIP Skywalk pass. Once on the bridge, stare straight down through the glass bottom for some of the most spectacular views that the Grand Canyon has to offer. For a little perspective, this bridge hangs 70 feet over the rim of the canyon and 4,000 feet above its floor!

There, a pontoon boat will take you on a Colorado River cruise between the canyon's ancient stone walls. Stare in awe at the thousands of feet of steep, layered rock carved out by the river as you're gently floating along.

After docking the boat, re-board your helicopter for an ascent back up to the West Rim of the canyon. A shuttle service will be waiting to transport you to Eagle Point for the Skywalk experience.

Skip the lines with your VIP pass to the Skywalk. If you're feeling a little extra brave, mosey right up to the edge of the low railings and take a peek at the Colorado River rushing beneath your feet.

The 6 Best Grand Canyon Bus Tours From Las Vegas

W hile the Strip is certainly one of Las Vegas' most famous features, it's not all the city has to offer. A trip to Las Vegas wouldn't be complete without experiencing the awe-inspiring natural wonders just outside of it, such as the Grand Canyon. Tourists and locals alike will enjoy a break from the bright lights and bustling city on a bus tour to the Grand Canyon.

Tour operator: Canyon Tours

Price: From $358 per person

Duration: About 10 hours

Visitors can experience the ultimate Grand Canyon bus tour paired with an unforgettable helicopter ride down to the floor of the canyon. The adventure begins on an air-conditioned tour bus that departs from the Vegas Strip and carries passengers to the West Rim. From there, passengers will board a helicopter that descends 4,000 feet, landing on the floor of the canyon. Visitors can explore the canyon floor before reboarding the motorcoach and continuing onto Grand Canyon West, which is home to Guano Point, Eagle Point and Hualapai Ranch. You'll also have the option to brave the world-famous glass Skywalk for sweeping views (and an additional fee).

Local tip: Grand Canyon West is located on the Hualapai Indian Reservation, which is owned and operated by the Hualapai Tribal Nation.

Located in Peach Springs, Arizona, the West Rim is only a few hours from Las Vegas. This tour will show you the best that the West Rim has to offer, including the glass-bottomed Grand Canyon Skywalk bridge (for an added fee). After being picked up from select Vegas hotels and traveling three hours on an air-conditioned bus, passengers get to spend up to four hours exploring the West Rim. A must-see lookout point at the West Rim is Guano Point, from which you can hike to Highpoint Hike and get a view of the Colorado River.

A lunch box, snacks and plenty of water are included with the tour.

You can also choose from several upgrades, including a Skywalk admission ticket, a helicopter ride or a boat excursion.

Local tip: Because it's closer to the Las Vegas desert, this side of the Grand Canyon is the warmest year-round, with hot and dry summers, mild shoulder seasons, and occasional snowfall in the winter.

Best Budget: Grand Canyon South Rim Bus Tour from Las Vegas

Price: From $84 per person

Duration: About 15 to 16 hours

A South Rim bus tour offers a quieter, more historic sightseeing experience. The South Rim is one of the most popular parts of Grand Canyon National Park . Guests can see the wide variety of flora and fauna native to the area. This bus tour – which takes around four hours to get to the South Rim's Mather Point from Vegas – gives visitors the opportunity to walk along Bright Angel Trail; it leads to Bright Angel Lodge, located in the Village Historic District.

You can also stock up on snacks and souvenirs at the Grand Canyon Visitor Center, since the tour only includes a box lunch and water. Or, upgrade your excursion with the guided walking tour add-on. Another historic part of the tour is the scenic drive along the famous Route 66, one of the first U.S. highways.

Local tip: Located farther from Vegas, the South Rim is cooler, with rainy and snowy winters, and more moderate temperatures in spring, summer and fall.
