By Paulette Neary


Want to make Valentine's Day extra special? A helicopter tour at the Grand Canyon will make it one to remember for a lifetime. Romance and adventure are combined on these tours that depart from Las Vegas, and the Arizona South Rim.

Helicopter Tours Out Of Vegas

Vegas is already a special place to be, but you can make it even better with a helicopter tour. There are plenty of options available from the city, including air-only and landing flights.

One tour that is ideal for Valentine's Day is the one that flies you to the Canyon floor. This tour comes with a Champagne picnic, and you can even add on a scenic boat ride along the Colorado River. Another fun thing to do at the Canyon is on top of the rim, because that's where the Skywalk is location.

The Skywalk is a thrilling adventure of its own. It is a huge bridge made of glass that juts beyond the edge of the rim, and you can walk out on it and stand 4000 feet above the Canyon floor and marvel at the fantastic view.

Tours at the South Rim

The South Rim is just as spectacular as the West Rim, but it's never as busy. If you want something a little more intimate and mysterious, then the South Rim is for you. The South Rim begins at Tusayan in Arizona. You can start right from there, or there are flights available from Vegas.

The South Rim has two tours available. The first tour last 30 minutes and flies to the North Rim and then circles back. However, there is a longer tour that is even better. The longer flight covers the same ground as the shorter tour and adds on all the land over to the eastern border. You'll get 50 minutes of air time, and during that time, you'll see around 75 percent of the entire park lands.

Upgrade to Deluxe

When you book your tour, you can book a basic tour or the deluxe version. The basic tours come with complimentary transportation on a shuttle bus. However, if you want to please your Valentine, then upgrading to a deluxe tour is worth it.

For one thing, the deluxe tours fly on newer EcoStar 130 choppers. These aircraft have smooth flights, plus the cabins are roomier and the seating is arrange stadium style. The best feature though, is the enormous windscreen that wraps around the aircraft giving you panoramic views of the scenery below.

To top things off, deluxe tours also include a limousine shuttle service. Why not treat your loved one to the complete experience?
