Mike our tour guide was informative and fun. Such a fantastic tour and I would highly recommend it. We managed to do the Zip wire but it meant not leaving time for Eagle point and Guano point. We were told that doing the Zip wire wouldn’t leave much time but we went against the good advice of Mike. However what an experience. We did manage the sky walk and that was incredible. My only flaw would be it would have been nice to have had 4 hours at the canyon to get everything done.

The Driver Chris was amazing and timely. I was picked up at exactly 6:30am. The coach was somewhat comfortable but old. Chris gave us some history of the ride to the Hoover Dam. One the way, for the five people who opted for breakfast, we stopped at a gas station where there was a Subway and a choice of 4 breakfast sandwiches. They were to go and eaten back on the coach as Chris wanted to get us to the first destination, the Hoover Dam. The Coach was parked in a large parking lot at the Hoover Dam. We were allowed 30 minutes to walk up to the Tillman Bridge. Cross the bridge which is quite long and return to the van to proceed to the West Ridge of the Grand Canyon. Once there we were allowed 4 hours to go to Eagle Point and Guano. (There was a third destination called “The Ranch” but were advised not to go there as the buses to that point were very sporadic.). There was a bus that took us to both destinations and was very timely. Lunch at either point was very cafeteria style. Guano was outside only and had two selections on their menu. The cafeteria at the Eagle location had an amazing view but window seating (to see the view) was very limited and you were not allowed to wait for a window seat. Let me say, before I summarize, that the driver, Chris, was very customer friendly with some fun stories. The coach felt crowded and old, I felt like I was provided a ride to two locations but there was no Tour Guide. Chris was the driver, the rest of the tour was an on your own experience. For $300.00 dollars, which is what I paid, I thought it was a lot of money for very little. I received a ride to and from and a fast food breakfast and lunch. I wish I could be more positive but the tour was below average for the price.
Dear Janet_G, Thank you very much for being a Gray Line customer and we are all very sorry that we missed your sightseeing expectations. It does seem like you enjoyed the Grand Canyon West Rim's spectacular views and the services of our professional driver/guide Chris quite a bit, and we appreciate your comments to that effect. From Las Vegas the Grand Canyon has 2 main visiting areas; the South Rim which is part of the Grand Canyon National Park, and the West Rim which in on the Hualapai Nations land reservation. The high price point for the West Rim, which is much closer to Las Vegas, is simply due to the cost of entering this nature destination. In closing, I want to again say how sorry we are for missing your expectations, and I want to wish you all the best in your future travel experiences. Sincerely, Michael S. / GL Vegas Customer Service

Second tour with Prince this week for my wife and I. The sites were of course phenomenal; however, Prince made both tours absolutely outstanding by providing related facts and information in a professional well spoken manner. This guy is a PRO! Ask for Prince when scheduling tours in and around Las Vegas.

There was a lot to experience but very little time. Booked the experience with breakfast and lunch. Breakfast was grab and go which really was okay except the fact there were no cup holders therefore very awkward. For the Hoover dam bridge overlook only enough time to walk to the middle and take a picture and walk back. The Grand Canyon had lots to experience but because our tour guide expected us back to the bus an hour earlier than anticipated it was so rushed it made the trip stressful. At the time of booking the helicopter experience was also recommended, but the time constraints gave us only an hour to make it to the other Grand Canyon stops nor enough time for lunch. Also the ticket that was to be scanned in order to enter the skywalk didn’t work so that was a hassle. In all fairness the trip would be a 5 star if return time would have been an hour later.
Dear Elizabeth, Thank you for being a Gray Line customer and we are sorry that you felt rushed and for missing your sightseeing expectations. The photo stop at Hoover Dam is meant to be just that, a short photo stop, yet we are sorry that you felt rushed. Our tours spend more time at the West Rim than our competitors, however on some days due to crowds at the West Rim even the additional time we spend at this magnificent location can feel rushed due to crowds and waits. We are sorry that this affected your visit. However, we are happy to hear that you enjoyed the spectacular views that mother nature only provides at the Grand Canyon. In closing, I want to thank you for leaving us feedback, and I want to wish you all the best in your future travels. Sincerely, Michael S. / GL Vegas Customer Service

Grand Vegas Tours. Do NOT use. I paid for a small group tour of the West Rim Grand Canyon one day. Just what I wanted to see. I got my electronic ticket Sunday morning for my 6 am pickup at my hotel. About 11 am got emails and phone messages my trip was cancelled not enough people signed up. They were putting me on a double decker bus with so many people. Oh no you are not. They did cancel and refund my money. They did not offer another option. So one thing on my bucket list will not happen. They new days before and waiting for the last minute is not a very reputable company. Buyer be ware
Dear Sharon R, At Gray Line we are sorry to hear that you had a bad Grand Canyon experience, yet it is important for us to say that while you posted this to Gray Line, you were NOT booked with Gray Line, nor did you travel with Gray Line. We know this simply as we are operating NO double-decker coaches from Las Vegas to any of our sightseeing destinations. For over 100 years the Gray Line family of global sightseeing companies has been providing professional tours around the globe, and we would recommend that in the future you should demand our excursions are booked on Gray Line, so that you receive the reputable service you, and all guests deserve. Sincerely, Michael S. / GL Vegas Customer Service

We had an amazing day out Prince was our driver and guide. He was very professional, knowledgeable and funny. The coach was modern and clean. We stopped to purchase drinks, snacks and to use the rest rooms on the way there and on our return. We would highly recommend this trip and the Grand Canyon didn’t disappoint.

Duane was a great driver/tour guide and was happy to give a little bit extra. The scenery was amazing although it's sad to see the Colorado River so low and the Hoover Dam operating way below capacity.
