You can explore even more of the Grand Canyon from above and below the rim with the Grand Canyon Discovery tour. You’ll fly 3,500 feet down to the bottom of the Grand Canyon where you’ll disembark for a seat on a pontoon boat for a smooth ride on the Colorado River marveling at the amazing beauty surrounding you.
