This exclusive retreat at Grand Canyon Ranch Provides the Only Accommodations
at the West Rim of the Grand Canyon! Conveniently departing from the Heli
USA terminal only minutes from the Las Vegas Strip, our luxurious "Pegasus" jet
copter will take you from the dazzle of Las Vegas to the peace and tranquility

descend by helicopter over 1,500 ft. below the rim of the Grand Canyon itself.
Afterwards, you will land at our Historic Grand Canyon Ranch where you will be
met by an authentic Horse drawn Wagon for a ride through the Joshua Tree forest.
Choose from an optional horseback ride (payable locally). Check in to your
genuine Pine Cabin, watch an amazing sunset, then enjoy a champagne celebration
welcome drink before enjoying a romantic candlelight dinner in the ranch house.
After dinner, warm yourself by the campfire as a thousand stars twinkle
overhead, and listen to some of the prettiest (and original) western songs sung
by our cowboy balladeer. Our ranch house western bar serves beer and wine
(payable locally). Next morning, a hearty ranch breakfast awaits you before
boarding your luxurious helicopter to Las Vegas, concluding with a flight down
the famous Las Vegas Strip. |
