Grand Canyon Tours From Las Vegas

LAS VEGAS - Oct. 18, 2017 - PRLog -- Each year thousands of tourists coming into Las Vegas are greeted at the airport by posters and billboards that advertise the day trips leaving the city to the Grand Canyon.  These will generally advertise the short drive times of less than 3 hours from your hotel to the Grand Canyon, and the unique activities that you can partake in like the "Skywalk." The Skywalk is a glass walking bridge that has been drilled into the cliff side so that people can walk hundreds of feet over the canyon floor, and it is an experience that is definitely not for everyone, especially those afraid of heights.  Unfortunately if you take the tours that are being advertised on these billboards, that is about the only activity you will have to choose from.  You will also notice that the area is not as lush and green as you might have seen in pictures, and it is lacking in many of the activities you have seen in movies and magazines.  This is because you are not actually in Grand Canyon National Park.  Grand Canyon West is actually Indian land that has only been open to the public since 2007.  Due to the fact that it is not federally controlled and funded, there is simply not as much to do in this area.

Those wishing to experience the actual Grand Canyon National Park are going to need to drive about 4.5 hours to get there from Las Vegas.  A far better bet would be to arrange for Bindlestiff Tours to transport you from your hotel room to the park and provide you with the best hiking and exploring options the park has to offer.  There are several tours that include the Grand Canyon, the best of which are going to be multiple park tours that also visit Zion Canyon and Bryce Canyon.  Because the driving time from park to park is less than the direct drive to the Grand Canyon from Las Vegas, you get more for your time by spending a few days on the tour and exploring multiple places.  Book your tour based on the amount of time you have to spend.  Bindlestiff Tours can be reached at their website for Grand Canyon tours. https://www.bindlestifftours.com/las-vegas-grand-canyon
