Re: Grand Canyon

I went from Vegas on a Day trip. We left at 7 a.m. and got back around 4 p.m.

We flew around the Caynon and then onto the rim, then took a bus tour which made about 4-5 stops around the rim.

It was an amazing place to see, I highly reccommend doing it if you have the time.

Yes I flew ... It takes about an 45 minutes to get there, we flew around to see some sights from the air then we landed and took a bus tour, then got back on the plane and came home.
It's a small plane 9-passenger maybe? and I was the co-pilot Chat Icon the pilot was a 25-year old hottie from Louisianna. ahhh, the memories. Chat Icon

Re: Grand Canyon

definitely go. it's amazing! i've been there several times and hiked to the bottom three times now. if you have time to do an overnight i recommend driving there and staying at one of the lodges. if you're going after mid-may i highly recommend going to the north rim. it's about the same driving distance from vegas as the south rim, but much less crowded and makes for a nicer experience.
