Just purchased a bus tour from Vegas to conclude the last day of our vacation in May. The total for two tickets on Orbitz was 390 which will include the skywalk if anyone is curious.
Thanks so much for the video. It was super helpful. I’m traveling to Vegas from Australia and I’m wondering if it’s worth going to the west rim. Can I ask, how long did you spend at the west rim (from parking in the car park to leaving the canyon)?
We were there around 3 to 4 hours. We left Vegas around 8 in the morning, stopped for breakfast, stopped at the Hoover Damn and then to the West rim. We did get back at night, around 7 or 8pm.
I really enjoyed the video .Great Post!.. Here are the questions I have before going,,because I can' t find the answers online anywhere. Once you leave Hoover Dam and head to the west rim.. Is there anyplace to stop and see the canyon without going all the way into the reservation. We have group from Canada coming--NONE of them want to do the Skywalk.. and we don't really have time to go though that whole thing with the shuttle buses. They would just like to look down and see the river. If you can't see the canyon without going into the Tribal lands--how much is it per person.. Thanks in advance.. and again ..thank you for sharing your experience.
Thanks for the questions. No, we don't believe there are any places to see the canyon on the west side without paying the entrance fee. Not sure about the North or South Rims but I believe those are under National parks and will also require a fee to enter. The entrance price for the West rim was in the low $50 range per person from what we remembered. There are also buses that will take you from places like Las Vegas as a package if you don't have a car.

Depending on where you start in Vegas it will be around 2 hours & 15 mins. If you leave early like around 8 in the morning you will have more than enough time to get there and see everything. Hope this helps!
Beautiful video. I will be in Las Vegas in May and would love to visit the Grand Canyon. The only problem, I am afraid of heights. Are there locations that are not so elevated that I can still get nice views of the canyon?
I don't like heights either. I think if you stay away from the edge and far enough back you should be ok. Eagles point shouldn't be a problem, Guano Point goes out into a peninsula so you could stay back from the edge and see a lot but not quite everything.
Did you do the skywalk and if so did you think it was worth it?
not at all . Better to take Red rock tour . Vehicle cost only 20 $
Fantastic video, have been looking for information like this week ages.
We’re glad it was helpful!

Great video. I’m doing this exact same trip in a couple of weeks
