Combine a Grand Canyon helicopter tour and a Hoover Dam rafting tour, and you have one of Papillon’s most exciting full excursions. Fly and float to fun aboard the Grand Celebration with Black Canyon River Rafting tour.
The Grand Celebration with Black Canyon River Raft pairs a helicopter landing at the bottom of the Grand Canyon with a smooth water float trip down the Colorado River in Black Canyon. Guests will depart via a luxurious helicopter to Grand Canyon West and land at Papillon’s exclusive landing site on a plateau adjacent to the Colorado River. Here, guests will enjoy a light picnic and champagne toast, have time to take photos and explore the bottom of the Grand Canyon before heading back to our terminal. Upon arrival, guests are then shuttled to the base of the Hoover Dam to take part in an 11-mile motorized raft trip down the Colorado River through Black Canyon. Experience impressive views of the Hoover Dam, wildlife, and several geological wonders aboard your watercraft and a guide to narrate your journey. The raft will dock at a private river beach where passengers can swim and enjoy a meal. After your epic voyage, guests return to Las Vegas via motorcoach.
