subject: Motor Coach Tours Are A Great Way To Explore The West Rim Of The Grand Canyon [print this page] Great bus service from the valley is more than just convenient transportation - they are a great way to explore the western edge of the stunning and areas nearby. In addition to the Grand Canyon, and highlights the beautiful scenery such as the Hoover Dam and Lake Mead near Las Vegas completely. Motor coach tours allow you to see these scenes, and the amazing geological features and bright colors throughout the national park. Appointed Grand Canyon is one of the seven wonders of the natural world for many reasons!
The incredible Grand Canyon Sky and Alec ("glass bridge") is the main attraction at Grand Canyon West. This is an amazing structure, and a large glass in the form of "U", you can walk over 70 feet from the edge of the board and the past. The views of the valley and the ground (4000 feet below) are striking from the top of Heaven and the Elk.
There is no need to worry about the safety of Skye and Alec. Design and construction make it able to withstand earthquakes of magnitude 8 degrees and winds over 100 miles per hour! Although only allows 120 people on deck at once, is strong enough to support 70 jumbo jets full load. Certainly one of the main bus Canyon Grand Tours, and highly recommended!
You will see the upper Colorado River riparian countries of the West. Over the eons the river carved out the valley, and the wind is still on its way through the park to more than 275 km. This is only a small part of the journey of the river from its source base in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado at the end point in the Sea of Cortez in Mexico.
A helicopter trip for 10 minutes takes you to the floor of the valley, and nearly a mile below the rim. Countries along the West is the only place that allowed for the trip. Once I got to the bottom of the valley, you can take this opportunity to float down the Colorado on a pontoon boat.
The last ten miles of road to the park were not paved. I do not recommend driving yourself to the edge of the West. Motor coach tours use modern and comfortable buses that have been allocated to the visit great. In addition, drivers of buses Canyon Grand Tours are also proof. I always thought it helps participants see the tour that passersby.
Grand Canyon Tours coach always do a lot of plants to take pictures. Hoover Dam is the most popular stop along the way. This massive structure 700 feet of the flow of the Colorado River runs great. The buses usually stop there for about 15 minutes, mostly to allow passengers to take photos. You will need to take a tour of Hoover Dam separate, if you want to spend more time there.
These bus trips are all day affairs Valley, so be sure to allow a full day on the west bank of your coach cars. And you will start your trip early in the morning, and you will not return to the Vegas strip until early evening. I used to make reservations for dinner in the evening or offer for after my return from a tour coach. I stopped, though. It's a long, hard day, especially during the summer when the temperature rises above 100.
