Which tours depart from Las Vegas?

We run guided day tours to the Grand Canyon West Rim, Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bend, the Hoover Dam, Valley of Fire State Park, and Zion National Park — all departing directly from Las Vegas.

How long do the tours take?

Half-day trips such as the Hoover Dam Express run about 4 to 6 hours, while full-day tours to the Grand Canyon, Antelope Canyon, or Zion run 11 to 15 hours including travel time.

Can I book a last-minute tour?
