Description
Fancy a helicopter flight from your Las Vegas hotel to the Grand Canyon, followed by 1 night at a Western-style ranch? This is a superb add-on to your Las Vegas holiday, an exciting bird's-eye trip to the great outdoors, swooping down to take in one of the natural wonders of the world. You stay the night at the Grand Canyon West Ranch in a genuine pine cabin, or authentic teepee, with the chance to enjoy a horse ride, followed by campfire entertainment. It's real ranch living, cowboys and cowgirls!
Days 1-5: Las Vegas and the ranch
Your very special flight starts from your Las Vegas hotel, where you would have been for 4 nights at the Luxor. You'll be picked up and taken to your jetcopter's take-off pad. Then it's up, up and away over the glamour and glitz of Las Vegas towards the natural beauty of the surrounding desert and the majesty of Music Mountains on the Grand Canyon Plateau. During the flight, to a combination of music and narration, you'll fly over the historic Hoover Dam, which used enough concrete to build a 6-lane highway coast-to-coast across the USA. You'll pass over the dark blue waters of Lake Mead before descending 1,500ft into the depths of the Grand Canyon itself. You'll be in awe at the close-up spectacle of this amazing place, with its towering rock formations and vivid, ever-changing colours. Next, the 'copter whizzes you to the private Grand Canyon West Ranch for an authentic cowboy experience. You can take an optional horse ride (local charge) through the Joshua Tree Forest, enjoying the surrounding wildlife and scenery before returning to your authentic ranch accommodation where you can soak in pure spring water in an authentic cowboy bathtub. After dinner, enjoy campfire entertainment under the stars before retiring to your authentic cabin or teepee.
Day 6: Homeward Bound
After a hearty ranch breakfast, you board your luxury helicopter back to Las Vegas - enjoying a final swoop along 'The Strip' to see all those amazing sights from the air! Then head to the airport for your Virgin Atlantic flight back to the UK.
