Tip: Where to Get 35% Off a Grand Canyon Helicopter Tour by Papillon

If you plan a holiday in Las Vegas, you must add one of Papillon Helicopter's trips to the Grand Canyon

. Annually, more than 600,000 people choose Papillon, making it the favorite operator of trips to Grand Canyon West and the South Rim from Las Vegas.

Papillon's fleet of helicopters is cutting edge. Most of these modern-day sightseeing aircraft feature 180-degree wraparound windshields, stadium-style seating (everyone faces forward), climate-controlled cabins, personal headsets, and pre-recorded narratives in 11 languages.

Papillon's tours depart from McCarran International and Boulder City, NV, a suburb just east of town. Transfer to and from your Las Vegas Strip resort-hotel is provided for free. Tip: Confirm you flight the day before take-off.

Papillon flies Grand Canyon West and the South Rim. There isn't any direct helicopter flights from Las Vegas to the Grand Canyon South - you must book a plane tour and bundle in a helicopter ride.

Grand Canyon West is closest to Las Vegas. It's 120 miles to the east and requires a 45 minute helicopter flight. This part of the Canyon, known as the West Rim, is incredibly liked by Vegas vacationers for two reasons: 1) It's home to the famous Grand Canyon Skywalk; and 2) it's the only place where you can fly to the bottom of the Grand Canyon.

The South Rim is 270 miles away from Las Vegas and requires a spectacular 45-minute airplane flight. Landing at Grand Canyon Airport, you'll transfer to your helicopter, whereupon you'll fly into the Dragoon Corridor, the widest, deepest section of the Canyon before turning back at the North Rim. Papillon's most popular South Rim helicopter tour is the North Canyon trip.

Pricing is similar for West and South rim flights and start around $280 pp. The cost goes up the more upgrades you add, like the Skywalk, river rafting, or the EcoStar 130. The best deals are available on Papillon's website where the company posts its best promotional prices that oftentimes save you up to 35% off retail!

Expect to spend a full day on these Papillon helicopter tours (there are no overnight packages with lodging at this time), making them ideal for Las Vegas visitors who want a quick yet satisfying Grand Canyon experience that puts them back on the Strip for a show or dinner with friends.
