The gran canyon is spectacular and well worth a visit. I would have preferred to spend longer in the Grand Canyon area and less time in Las Vegas, that's my fault. Our day started badly as the car was delivered late if at all. After waiting for over an hour I took myself to the airport to collect it, this cost more on top of a what is a very expensive day! After that it was amazing, however, you can look at all the elements and put it together easily yourself and save a small fortune. This is unusual as I found the trips on Viator very good value.

Amazing trip. The car hire company picked us up from the hotel which was a good start to the day. However they did not have a SUV available and we were given a 7 seater people carrier! Not what we had hoped for as there were only two of us! Once we had got used to the idea of our mini bus the rest of the trip was fabulous. The drive to the canyon was quite simple and once there the three stops on the tour were well organised with buses running every few minutes so we could spend as long as we liked at each stop. The lunch is very basic but welcome in the heat but the crows that join you at the restaurant are terrifying - swooping in at every opportunity - very scary!! The views are awesome and although the Skywalk is impressive on the third stop we walked around the edge and climbed higher. It was truly indescribable one of the most magnificent places on earth. A definite must if in Las Vegas.

Loved this trip we did the self drive to the Grand Canyon, The waiting time for the Helicopter was slow and the heat on the day was crazy. We enjoyed the helicopter experience and the boat ride, however, the bus tour part due to the heat made it uncomfortable. Can't control the weather though.

The person at the car rental place was 15 minutes late and didnt even apologize for it. She practically gave no information. The gas tank was practically empty. All of Lwhich defeated the purpose of trying to leave early. The Grand Canyon was great, but the other aspects of the trip were not.

Great way to see the Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam at your own pace. It was an simple process picking up and dropping off the SUV. The vehicle was in excellent condition and the tour staff was very friendly. They give you a map and the drive only about 2 1/2 hours from Vegas and so beautiful. We were able to stop whenever and wherever we wanted to. We would definitely recommend doing this self drive trip. And booking through Viator was fast and efficient.

This trip was AWESOME!!!! The vehicle was beautiful- and practically brand new- and the tours from the airport on the reservation were indescribable! It's a total experience I recommend to everyone!

Beautiful trip. Best way to see the Grand Canyon. The Suv was first rate and we were able to get it at 7am to get an early start which is a must. The directions were clear and concise. We were able to spend our time at each place as we wanted and not being pushed by a tour guide. Highly reccomend.

This tour was brilliant. The car hire was great, easy to get to from Vegas. The west rim site is well run and the 3 different view points are great. Sky walk was fantastic. Well worth it!

Having been looking forward to this trip we arrived having been picked up and we were on our way to the Grand Canyon. On arrival we went to the nearest help desk to get things moving but after going back and forth between companies nobody seemed to know anything about our booking. Two and a half hours later we were no further forward with getting in a chopper... There seemed to be no organisation from the people who organise the paperwork for the helicopter tour companies. The whole experience would have been a complete shocker if it weren't for the stunning views when we eventually flew.

So glad we took the self drive option however disappointed in the car we got (jeep)this car was for the off road part listed on the website however there is no off roading now as they have upgraded the road. The car was gas thirsty so cost a lot for the 2.5hr drive however canyon made up for it!!!!

Extremely well organised. I've been lucky enough to visit the Grand Canyon by helicopter, small plane and now self drive. The self drive was in my opinion the best experience.

Very pleasant easy tour. Loved being in our own vehicle. We stopped by the Hoover Dam on the way back since we had time. Grand Canyon was breathtaking and Skywalk was really worth the trip.
Review by: William K, April 2014
Self guide is the only way to go! Got to see the Hoover dam. Would like to go back and take the inside dam tour when I have more time. The Grand Canyon was very nice. The gravel road was not bad at all. An SUV is not needed. A lot of work had been done and the road would only get rough after a rain. A standard car would be fine. The Indian village a shows are kind of cheesey but I understand they are there to make money not put on shows. A great time and a great trip. You should do it!!

The family liked this trip so very much. Driving ourselves allowed us to take our time walking around at the grand canyon. The lunch was hot and very good. Driving ourselves allowed us to stop where we wanted to. The only downside was trying to get out of town and then later returning the car.

Amazing place tour was great
Review by: Phil Morris, August 2013
We had a brilliant time on this tour. We travelled from the UK to Vegas in July and spent a day exploring the Hoover Dam and the Canyon which were both fantastic. Driving was easy and canyon is very well run. We did helicopter, boat and skywalk. Superb. Even drove down Route 66 on way home. 5 stars!!!!!
