Vegas has always had a way of delivering unforgettable moments—and this roundup nails it. I visited years ago, and still vividly remember the drive out to the Hoover Dam and Grand Canyon. Back then, we stuck to the road, but seeing helicopter tours featured here? What a brilliant way to elevate the experience—literally.
If you’re planning a trip, this guide is a great starting point. Whether you’re chasing adrenaline, soaking in the views, or diving into the food scene (my favorite), there’s something here for every kind of explorer. And if you’ve already tried one of these tours, I’d love to hear what stood out—or what you’d recommend skipping.
When I return I would love to hit the Area 51 tour – and of course there are the casinos..
Thanks Mark! One of the best tours I have done, anywhere, was of the Grand Canyon by plane, helicopter, and raft! It’s certainly one I will never forget! Cheers, Rob
This got me even more excited for my trip to Vegas! I’ve been looking into different ways to explore beyond the usual tourist spots, and a guided tour sounds like the perfect way to do that—especially for a first-timer like me. I’d love something that mixes local history with great photo ops (and maybe a foodie stop or two).
Thanks for the tip—definitely checking out a few of these tours!
