Itinerary and highlights
You will depart Las Vegas and cross over the Mike O’Callaghan-Pat Tillman Memorial bridge, through the Mojave desert. The Mike O'Callaghan–Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge is an arch bridge connecting Arizona and Nevada over the Colorado River. Standing 890 feet above the water, this four-lane structure was built to bypass the old U.S. 93 route over the Hoover Dam, resolving associated traffic issues.
The Mojave Desert is a xeric desert in the rain shadow of the Sierra Nevada mountains in the Southwestern United States.
During your 3 hours at Grand Canyon West, there is time to enjoy spectacular views from Eagle Point and Guano Points, and visit Hualapai Ranch. The world-famous glass bridge “Skywalk” is an option at Eagle Point. Includes bottled water and granola bar.
The Colorado River flows between Arizona and Nevada at the location of the Mike O'Callaghan–Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge. The bridge spans the river at a significant height of 890 feet. Its presence necessitated the construction of the bridge as an alternative to the former U.S. 93 crossing over the Hoover Dam.
The world-famous glass bridge “Skywalk” is an option at Eagle Point. Includes bottled water and granola bar.
Purchase an optional ticket to the world-famous glass bridge "Skywalk" that juts out over the Grand Canyon.
Guano Point at Grand Canyon West is a must-visit for stunning panoramic views of the canyon and Colorado River. Once home to a mid-century mining operation, remnants of an old tramway still cling to the cliffs, offering a glimpse into the area’s industrial past. With its rugged trails and dramatic lookout points, it’s one of the most scenic and story-rich spots on the Hualapai Reservation.
The Arizona Joshua Tree Forest can be found near the west end of the Grand Canyon just east of the Lake Mead National Recreation Area
