Grand Canyon-Nordrand: Luft- und Bodentour, optional Geländewagenfahrt

Aussicht aus dem Flugzeug waren erstaunlich! Riley ist ein toller Pilot und sehr sympathisch. Ich genoss die ATV-Fahrt und der junge Junge, der uns führte, war großartig, kann sich aber nicht an seinen Namen erinnern. Wir entschieden uns dafür, Seite an Seite zu fahren, anstatt auf unseren eigenen vier Rädern, was sich als viel weniger staubiges Erlebnis herausstellte. Wenn ich einen Teil nennen müsste, der nur durchschnittlich war, wäre es das Mittagessen. Gut, aber nichts zum Schreiben.

This was a highlight of our 5 day Vegas trip. Bar 10 Ranch and our tour guide for the 4x4 trip were great! It was hot in July, but we knew that going in. The thumb throttle on the 4x4 was tough, especially on the ride back in. The approx 2 hour trail was smooth in a few places, but mostly rocky and uneven. Water was provided at a couple stops along the way. Knowing that, we might have chosen the side by sides that also have a cover since there is no shade on the trail. At the end, lunch provided at the ranch was BBQ sandwiches, sides and lemonade. The small plane to and from was as expected about 45 min each way with optional headphones with music and narration. We had excellent views of Hoover Dam and Lake Mead. The overall views of the Grand Canyon North Rim were good. I wonder if the other rims had better views. We had a problem with initial pickup time which was a communication issue between Viator and the pick up van. The print time was 7:15am pickup from the hotel. The time quoted when we called to confirm the day before was 6:45am pickup. On the day of the trip we got a call that they were leaving because we were not at the pick up point at 6:25am. After we called Viator, the van waited, but the issue and stress was avoidable. Overall, the trip was good. The ranch was really nice, with picturesque views. Overnight covered wagon options were available at the ranch. The overall value for this trip with flight, lunch and 4x4 ride was maybe a bit much at just under $600pp.

We had a fantastic day. The flight from Boulder city to Bar 10 ranch was awesome flying over the Hoover dam in an old De Haviland plane. The staff and facilities at the ranch were great. Had a wonderful drive down to the canyon rim with an informative guide. The lunch provided was great then another flight back to Boulder city. I would highly recommend it!
