A Close Escape That Feels Worlds Away<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ve seen photos of the Grand Canyon, but nothing compares to standing at the edge taking in the view for yourself. And the best part? You don\u2019t need a week off work to experience it. You just need half a day and a sense of adventure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Grand Canyon West offers the canyon\u2019s most memorable experiences, like the Skywalk, epic viewpoints, zipline and rich Hualapai history, just a two-hour drive from Las Vegas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Get Here From Vegas<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The drive is part of the adventure. Head southeast from the Strip, past the Hoover Dam and through the open desert. In just two hours, the glittering skyline gives way to red rock cliffs, Joshua trees and the silence of canyon country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t want to drive? Round-trip bus tours from Vegas hotels make it even easier and have the All-Access Pass, snacks and a scenic photo stop at the Hoover Dam built in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
