It's almost Father's Day (June 16th this year) and I have a great suggestion for a special gift for Dad. Taking your dad on a bus tour of the Grand Canyon is certainly a different idea. Tours run on the usual schedule that day and this is a trip your dad will never forget. Bus tours give you a lot of value for your money and they are a lot of fun,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
The 16th of June will be here before you know it so be sure to book your trip soon,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Don't wait too long because Father's Day bus tours frequently sell out,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
You can catch a bus tour every day of the year from both Vegas and Phoenix. If you depart from Phoenix, you will go to the South Rim of the Grand Canyon and if you leave from Vegas, you can go to the South Rim or the West Rim.
Grand Canyon Bus Tours From Phoenix
The bus trip from Phoenix to the Grand Canyon is incredibly scenic and you will see a lot on your 3 hour ride. One awesome sight is in Sedona, which is noted for the amazing red rock buttes in the area. From there you'll head to Tusayan,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], AZ, just outside the Park's main gates. This is a tiny town but it is where the Grand Canyon National Park Airport, or GCA,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], is located.
An alternative is to take a semi-private van tour,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but these tours are limited to 12 people. If you want the ultimate in comfort and a more personalized trip,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it might be a good option for you.
Vegas Grand Canyon Bus Tours
The number of choices for bus tours leaving from Vegas is absolutely amazing. There is a basic tour that just goes to the West Rim, but you should upgrade it and add a helicopter flight to the bottom of the canyon, a rafting trip down the Colorado, or passes to the Grand Canyon Skywalk.
The helicopter flight to the bottom of the Grand Canyon is awesome and the West Rim is the only place that is allowed. Of course, the Skywalk is also extra-special,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it's the largest all-glass cantilevered bridge on the entire planet!
Motor coach tours to the South Rim are also extremely popular with Vegas travelers. It takes about two and one-half hours to ride to the West Rim and double that to ride to the South Rim. The longer ride pays off though because you get to see what many consider to be the real Grand Canyon. If you look at a photo of the Grand Canyon,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it was probably taken there.
If the funds are available, consider adding the exciting rim-to-rim helicopter tour. It takes you across the canyon to the North Rim and then flies back. It is a really exciting flight that takes you through the deepest part of the Grand Canyon known as the Dragoon Corridor.
Booking and Discounts
If you plan to take dad there to celebrate his big day, book your tickets at least two weeks in advance if you can. You risk disappointment if you wait too long. You might be forced to take seats you don't want, or they might be sold out altogether.
The best rates are always offered online. When you buy your seats directly from the tour company and buy them online, you get to use the Internet-only special price. Don't buy your tickets from a travel agent, kiosk, or hotel concierge,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or you have to pay the full retail price.
