If you want to add some spice to your Las Vegas vacation, you have to consider going on a Grand Canyon expedition. You will enjoy the breathtaking view Grand Canyon buses give of this wonderful region.The Grand Canyon is a major tourist attraction, receiving more than five million tourists in a year. Taking a flight is the quickest way to reach it, but most visitors don’t like or cannot afford to fly here. They don’t have to miss out on this spectacle just because of this.They have a better option available, Grand Canyon bus tours. In fact, a motor coach ride lets you capture the canyon’s spellbinding beauty much better.Takes Care of Your Pick Up and DropMost of these land trips start from the famous Vegas helipad. Most of the tour operators include a pickup and drop off service for their passengers to their Vegas Strip hotels in their tour package.This is a smart move on their part because visitors consider traveling through Vegas’ hectic traffic, and reaching their destination on time a big challenge. Besides, it’s always better and easier if someone else does the driving! Don’t worry if you don’t stay in a Strip hotel. You can always catch a cab to the fixed pick up spot.Sightseeing SpotsThe West Rim may seem far away as it’s about 120 miles away, but it’s actually the closest to Las Vegas. It offers spectacular views of landmarks, like the Guano and Eagle Points and the Colorado River.You also get a once in a lifetime opportunity of experiencing the thrill of walking on the Grand Canyon Skywalk or the Glass Bridge. This is a glass skywalk that extends 70 feet beyond the Rim.The adrenaline rush you experience while walking on the skywalk makes it well worth including in your package. Just imagine the site of the magnificent canyon lying 4000 feet under you! You can save money if you include a ticket in the tour pack instead of buying it separately later on.Visit the Kaibab PlateauYou can also go to the South Rim on Grand Canyon buses. As it’s more than 275 miles from Las Vegas, the journey spans about 5 and half hours each way. Though long, this is a beautiful trip worth taking.The West Rim has so much to show like the Hoover Dam, Lake Mead and also N. America’s famous Kaibab Plateau. You also get to see Grand Canyon Village upon reaching the park.This is where you find the El Tovar Hotel and Bright Angel Lodge. You can also see various other famous tourist spots like Mother Point.Lunch IncludedThe highlight of Grand Canyon bus trips to me is their doing everything possible to create a memorable experience. I’d mentioned their pickup and drop-off service from the Strip hotel earlier. In addition to it, there’s a lunch option in their itinerary.Then again, you can always experiment by trying something new. You have numerous dining options in the West or South Rim restaurants or snack bars. Their dishes are pretty reasonably priced.It doesn’t matter which Rim you want to visit. Each tour typically lasts a day. The Las Vegas to West Rim journey is 2 and a half hours long each way and the South Rim trip lasts 5 and a half hours each way. So you won’t return to the strip until at least nine pm.Enjoy With Your Loved OnesI don’t think it’s wise planning dinner or a show upon returning. The trip is so tiring, you won’t have the strength to actually do anything after it, even if you return on time. Don’t be surprised if you end up sleeping like a log after the trip!So Grand Canyon bus tours let you truly enjoy the canyon with your friends and family. There are choppers available with only six seats and airplane with nineteen. However, it’s very unlikely that you will actually get to know anyone on these aircraft.Ride In ComfortThe entire concept is a whole lot different in case of Grand Canyon buses. You get to travel with huge groups of people where a few of them become your friends. Besides, the ride is comfortable too. The motor coaches have seats that recline at a comfortable angle, and plasma televisions.They also have personalized climate controls for more comfort, food trays and even an onboard restroom for added convenience and comfort in the trip.If you now can’t wait to board a Grand Canyon bus, well then why waste more time? Come on! I’ll be waiting for you on the drive from the canyon to Vegas where buses are raring to go!
