Everything you need to know to visit the Grand Canyon West, home of the famous Grand Canyon Sky Walk. Operated by the Hualapai Native American Tribe most well known for the iconic Skywalk, a glass bridge that extends out over the rim of the canyon. And for being close (2 hours) to Vegas. Great spot for epic views, hikes, helicopter tours, rafting trips down the Colorado River, native American cultural exhibits, and a zipline too!

    Thank you for this! I’m visiting my husband working in Vegas next week and he gets one day off, meaning this is our only option for the Grand Canyon. I was weary because of other bad reviews. We aren’t going to want to do any of the extras, and you couldn’t pay me to get on the skywalk, so for just the entrance fee I’m looking forward to it!!
  • @tribequest9
    Chris, I haven’t seen your videos in at least 5 years and then you came up. You are my favorite travel vlogger and now you have a kid. It’s so great to see you again, and congratulations on being a father!
  • Stunning! Grand Canyon is on my bucket list! And great overview as usual! 😀👍
  • @tubelance
    I loved my trip to skywalk. We definitely were one of the very first people there, and we had all the time we wanted almost by ourselves and guano point. We must’ve spent 45 minutes walking around that viewpoint. It was incredible. I highly recommend this trip for Vegas visitors all priced very fairly. Also think of the money you would have spent on the strip if you hadn’t made a day trip to the Grand Canyon.

    That looks quite expensive! I'm glad to hear though the the views from the skywalk are really cool though, so I could see myself spending the money to go there instead of spending anything on the casinos in Vegas. The frybread taco looked amazing! I remember having something similar in South Dakota several years ago, and I really enjoyed it.
  • @rodfeher
    the rafting expedition is the best way to see the canyon
  • @OHobbies
    I’m heading there next week so this video is perfect timing!
  • @jameshiga8077
    Hi Chris. Thanks for the great video. The zip line looks like a fun activity to do. Take care.
  • Greetings from the Philippines! Thank you Chris for this video. This video brings back memories. The Skywalk is an experience! We went there December 2018.
  • @kayleebeare
    Thanks for this video Chris. Planning my Arizona trip in December and wanted to do this, but didn't realize how expensive it was. Always love your videos!
  • @mrsandgroper584
    Anything you see at the Grand Canyon is spectacular. I enjoyed Mather Point at the South Rim. Greetings from Perth, Western Australia.
  • @diegochavez7367
    Very informative Chris! I totally I agree more of a bucket list and go once I actually won a raffle to stay overnight in the cabins all expenses paid which was cool!

    I took the steam train ride to the southern area of the gran canyon a few years ago. Really recommend checking it out. Came with a cowboy show and an amazing view.
