There are two major types of tours to the Grand Canyon. Grand Canyon air tours is one, while the other is a ground tour usually conducted by a bus or shuttle vehicle. Flights usually depart either from Las Vegas or from the National Airport at Grand Canyon, AZ. Understanding what it is you want to learn while you are visiting this part of Arizona will help you determine which type of tour you should book for yourself.
When you visit the location by air, the vast expanse and grandeur of this area is obvious. The size involved is eighteen miles wide at its maximum point and reaches a depth of about 6,000 feet. Its length is 277 miles. It is impossible to realize the scope of these measurements from the ground, even from one of the several famous vantage points.
Views by air give the visitor a better grasp of all the colors that can be seen. The water of the river itself can vary from rapid whitewater to the deep blue colors of Horseshoe Bend. The rocks vary from orange to tan to brown to red, depending upon the layers of sandstone that have been worn down over hundreds of years. Of course, the desert colors and the bright pinpoints of clothing and decorative areas from people on the ground add interest.
Although you miss the "feet-on-the-ground" close-ups of the chasm, you will get to see much more by flying over the expanse. Many of the flights allow for views of other areas such as the Painted Desert and Hoover Dam. These elements add to the interest and features that can be accomplished in a single trip.
Overall, taking a plane over the area is the most comfortable way to see the sights. You don't have to spend hours walking or riding in order to cover a lot of territory. The seats are comfortable and the windows allow for the best opportunity of seeing the sights.
Although photographic opportunities abound throughout the canyon tours, by using the air viewpoint, there are more opportunities to use light, color and vistas to construct scenic images. It is said that no two pictures of the canyon are identical. The variety of shadow and light during different times of the day makes for an ever-changing opportunity to capture unique images.
An important benefit of using air rather than ground-based tours is the time required. You can set aside a day for viewing the West Rim or the South Rim and have time left over to relax with a meal during the tour. On the ground, you would see only a point or two up close.
Choosing Grand Canyon air tours over ground excursions will be a good choice for people who want an overview of the area. You will be comfortable while you see wide horizons. If you prefer a close up view of cultures, or if you want to enjoy adventure, the ground tours will be more to your liking. In either case, the view will be sure to meet your expectations.
