Bus means a tour I think. Don’t know if I’d want to see it from the air, too impersonal and might become a statistic. ;) Drive to an overlook, hike or ride down, maybe do a rafting trip through it.

Personally, I think by horseback would be best.

helicopter would be neat for a grand view.

I’ve only been there once. when I was moving across country. So , I didn’t have much time. Just stayed for an hour to look at the view.

It depends on which side of the Grand Canyon you want to see. It's about a 45 minute drive from to the west rim of it in Chloride, AZ, from Las Vegas, roughly the same to the north rim at Overton, NV, to as much as a 6 hour drive to the main part of it, as it is 3 hours north of Flagstaff. Helicopter or scenic flight would be the fastest way there. They have scenic flights and day trips by air from the North Las Vegas airport (VGT). It's a 40 minute flight from there. Daytrip there, horseback through the canyon if you'd like, flight back. It would be a bit expensive because GCN is a tourist trap airport, but it would be worth it.

How expensive or do you have link for a whole package price from Las Vegas to at least the South Rim of The Grand Canyon right now? If that is even possible. By plane and helicopter of 6 hours or less. If that is possible as well.

I'll do you one better. Scenic Airlines has everything you're looking for. And I apologize, for I was wrong. Scenic isn't based out of VGT anymore; they moved to Boulder City, which is on the other side of town. However, they do offer pick up and drop off from any hotel.

Thanks.

Sadly they don't show prices without calling. It is ok though.
