Program details
Relive all your childhood dreams as you zoom across the Mojave in a journey perilously undertaken over the centuries by conquistadors, missionaries, cowboys and settlers. Drive through a 900-year-old Joshua tree forest before arriving at the Grand Canyon West bus depot.
From the depot transfer to a luxury coach for a 21km (13 mile) journey to the rim of the canyon on an old dirt track off limits accessible to the general public. The sense of expectation will be almost unbearable as you approach one of the world’s great natural wonders. Behold the Grand Canyon, up to 29km (18 miles) wide at some points and carved as deep as 1.6km (1 mile) into the earth by a 446km-long (277 miles) stretch of the Colorado River.
The West Rim of the Grand Canyon is renowned for its spectacular red rock formations and a number of outstanding features that have made it one of the most popular areas. Among the many landmarks are Guano Point and Eagle Point, where the famous Skywalk is located near the dwellings of the Hualapai Native American tribe. See also the Grand Canyon West Ranch.
