Las Vegas & the Grand Canyon Holiday Extension

This afternoon, transfer to San Diego Airport for a short flight across the desert to dazzling Las Vegas. On arrival, we head straight to the iconic Horseshoe Las Vegas Hotel & Casino, our base for the next three nights. Set right on The Strip, it is the perfect starting point to experience the city’s energy, entertainment, and endless attractions.

Today is ours to experience Las Vegas at our own pace. Wander along The Strip and take in the city’s iconic hotels, try your luck at a casino, pause to watch the dancing fountains outside the Bellagio, or ride the High Roller for sweeping views across the skyline. For a different perspective, take an optional evening helicopter flight. This whirlwind tour offers a spectacular bird’s-eye view of the Strip, soaring over landmarks like the Mirage, Bellagio, and the glittering lights of Fremont Street Experience.

Today’s helicopter tour begins with captivating aerial views over Hoover Dam, Lake Mead, and the winding Colorado River as we make our way toward Grand Canyon West. After landing at the canyon’s edge, we board an air-conditioned shuttle to explore several remarkable viewpoints along the rim. Highlights include Eagle Point, and the Hualapai Point Native American Centre, the panoramic beauty of Guano Point, and the chance to step out onto the glass-bottomed Grand Canyon Skywalk – a horseshoe-shaped platform suspended high above the canyon floor. There’s time to take in the scenery, capture some unforgettable photos, and fully appreciate the vast, rugged beauty of this natural wonder before our return flight to the Las Vegas area.

After breakfast, there’s time for a final taste of Las Vegas. With luggage stored at the hotel, enjoy a few more hours to explore, pick up some last-minute souvenirs, or simply soak up the city’s unique energy. In the late afternoon, we transfer to Las Vegas Airport for our overnight flight home.
