The absolute best way to see the canyon. Good value for the price and very competitive pricing when compared to other travellers. Our motor coach driver was phenomenal.
Besides the weather that prevented the helicopter and boat trip, the excursion was awesome! The bus was comfortable, the guide was very informative, the food was good.. Our overall experience was great! I would definitly recommend this excursion and your company to friends and clients. Also, we were given a refund for our helicopter and boat trip that had to be cancelled due to inclement weather and the process went smoothly, I never had to call once to request my money back, refund was automatically processed, great service!!!.
Pick up hotel was convenient, but the bus was 25 minutes late. Taken to another location 1/2 hr. away to check-in, pick up breakfast (juice and bun), and get on a 2nd bus. Nice bus. Stopped briefly at Hoover Dam which was not what we expected. At checkpoint was told the brakes were okay even though we heard the check people say they weren't and there was an awful smell coming in the back doors. Stopped to change to a 3rd bus (dirty, old, with torn seats) because the road was dirt and potholed. Got to our helicopter ride to the bottom of the canyon and this was the highpoint of the trip. However, upon landing the walk down to the river to get on the boat was not for 65 and 70 yr. old women with bad knees!! No one to help us and it was quite dangerous as there were no hand rails.Treck back up was even harder. Boat ride was very nice. Lunch choices at the top were disappointing also. Very nice Indian gift shop. Returned on dirty bus, changed to nice bus and then to a 3rd bus again back in Vegas. Driver was nice enough to drop us at our hotel so we didn't have to walk back. I'm giving it 2 stars because of the helicopter ride and the very nice drivers and the boat guys who were great. Would not recommend this particular trip to older people. Too many buses and very tiring.
