Grand Canyon Western Ranch by Luxury Bus & Helicopter Tour

Luxury mini-coach to Grand Canyon Western Ranch with stop at the Bypass Bridge and views above Hoover Dam. See the Joshua Tree Forest, then spend 2 hours at the historic Grand Canyon Western Ranch!

From Las Vegas to the Heart of the Old West!

Your adventure begins in Las Vegas, where the bright lights fade behind you as you head southeast through the Mojave Desert. From the comfort of your vehicle or luxury Sprinter transport, the open road reveals a series of unforgettable desert landmarks that build anticipation as you make your way to Grand Canyon Western Ranch.

Highlights Along the Way:

  • Hoover Dam & Memorial Bridge: Just 45 minutes outside Las Vegas, enjoy stunning views of the iconic Hoover Dam and the Mike O’Callaghan–Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge. Time permitting, stop for photos or take a short walk across the bridge’s pedestrian path for sweeping views of Lake Mead and the Colorado River.
  • Fortification Hill & Black Mountains: Pass by Fortification Hill, an extinct volcanic mesa, framed by the rugged Black Mountains and desert valleys—a perfect preview of the geologic wonders to come.
  • Joshua Tree Forest Parkway: Crossing into Arizona on US-93, you’ll enter the Joshua Tree Forest, near mile marker 169. This scenic stretch is filled with towering, twisted Joshua trees, creating a desert forest unlike anything else in the region.
  • Grand Wash Cliffs in the Distance: As you approach Meadview, the Grand Wash Cliffs come into view, hinting that you’re now truly in Grand Canyon territory.
  • Final Stretch: Pierce Ferry & Diamond Bar Roads: The last few miles take you through peaceful open desert, with occasional wild burros and ranch fencing guiding the way to your destination.
  • Welcome to Grand Canyon Western Ranch: Nestled on 165 acres of Joshua tree-dotted high desert, the Grand Canyon Western Ranch is a blend of Old West charm and rugged Arizona beauty. Explore the area by horseback or wagon, and enjoy a meal or a cocktail from the Ranch House Western Bar.
