Many people talk about seeing the Seven Wonders of the World as if they are hard to reach, but the Grand Canyon is one of the most stunning Seven Wonders, and it is easy to visit in Arizona. This is one of the must-see destinations for people visiting and living in the United States. People travel to the Grand Canyon from all over the world just to see its majestic beauty. In most cases, the easiest way to enjoy the Grand Canyon is to experience it from the sky through Grand Canyon plane tours.

Grand Canyon plane tours fly out of Las Vegas on a regular basis. There are multiple companies now flying tourists out to the West Rim, returning them to Las Vegas at the end of the flight. The Canyon can be visited as a day trip, so Vegas visitors can get away from the man-made beauty of lights and casino tables to enjoy the natural beauties of the Canyon.

Plane tours to the Canyon will go to different areas, but many visitors enjoy the West Rim trip that stops off at Hoover Dam. The entire trip is about eight hours long. The first fifty minutes of the tour are consumed by a visit to the Hualapai Indian Reservation, and the rest of the trip covers the amazing beauty of Eagle Point and Guano Point.

There are also Grand Canyon airplane rides going to the South Rim. These flights begin at tiny Tusayan, Arizona, which also offers some great places to stay while you're in the canyon area. What makes these trips enjoyable are the local guides who are like walking Encyclopedias on the Grand Canyon, and who do everything possible to keep visitors entertained.

When it comes to providing value for your money, these Grand Canyon flights are some of the best aerial tours in the world. Ground tours limit what you can see at one time, but from the air you can take in the entire Canyon in one breathtaking trip. Since an airplane is also the faster form of transportation, you get to enjoy more time taking in the Canyon and less time traveling.

Whether you are visiting the Canyon for the first time or the fiftieth time, the professionals organizing your tour will ensure you are well taken care of and properly entertained. There will be many photo opportunities so you can remember your trip forever, and the large plane windows ensure every passenger can see this Wonder of the World properly. You will also enjoy learning about the Grand Canyon as you move through your tour, since most of these trips offer narrations to educate and entertain as you move along.

A traditional Native American-style lunch at an area reservation is typically included in a Grand Canyon flight. These tours offer a wealth of information regarding Native American culture, but you still get your fill of the Canyon as well.

With the wide selection of plane tours offered, most visitors can find something to meet their needs. There are some special tourist needs that may be accommodated in a special manner if you ask. If you do have something special to request, make sure to talk to someone representing the tour company prior to booking your tour.

When you board in Vegas, you will always be returned to Vegas at the end of your trip. It is difficult to top Las Vegas due to the glamorous lights, the entertaining shows, and the never-ending resort-hotels and buffets. And, if you want to fly back to the Grand Canyon the next day, you'll be able to book another canyon flight.
