Description

Begin your day with a small-group Grand Canyon West Rim tour from Las Vegas, traveling across the Mojave Desert in a comfortable Mercedes Sprinter with panoramic windows, USB ports, and plenty of space to relax. Enjoy a morning coffee stop on the way out of the city while your professional guide shares stories about the Southwest’s unique desert landscape.

On the return to Las Vegas, pause for a scenic photo stop at the Hoover Dam. Capture panoramic shots of the Colorado River, Lake Mead, and the dam's art deco architecture before heading back to the city. With small group sizes, no check-in terminal, and no hidden fees, this full-day adventure combines convenience, value, and unforgettable views in one seamless experience.
