Helicopter Glamping at Grand Canyon West: Overnight Stay & Skywalk Adventure
Fly from Las Vegas to the rim of Grand Canyon West, spend an overnight in a luxury glamping wagon, and stand on the famous Skywalk. This helicopter-accessed escape pairs aerial drama with easy access to Eagle Point and Guano Point—ideal for travelers who want a big-canyon experience without the backcountry grind.
The Experience
Before You Go
Bring ID and weight details at booking
Operators require full names and passenger weights before departure—have that info ready to avoid delays.
Dress in layers for big temperature swings
Desert days can be hot and nights cold; a light insulated layer plus windproof shell will keep you comfortable.
Hydrate and use sun protection
High sun, reflective rock, and dry air increase dehydration risk—carry water and high-SPF sunscreen.
Protect camera gear from dust and rotor wash
Use a UV filter and bring spare batteries; the helicopter landing strips can kick up fine sand that gets into lenses.
