What’s the best route for a California/Las Vegas flydrive?
My fiancee and I are planning a two-week California flydrive next August for our honeymoon. The locations we would like to see are Los Angeles, San Francisco, some or all of the Highway Pacific coast road, and then a hop across the state border to Nevada to see the bright lights of Vegas.
My question is: what’s the best route? We will be flying in from the UK and are happy to land in either LA or SF. Then we collect the car and go from there.
Do we land in LA, spend a few days there, take a drive up the coast road to SF, spend a few days there and then drive to Vegas via Yosemite National Park? Or do we start the trip in SF, drive down to LA and then on to Vegas?
Two final points: my fiancee likes beaches so it would be nice to spend a couple of days on one of California’s finest! Also, the Grand Canyon is obviously a must-see so I plan to treat my fiancee to a helicopter ride from Vegas. Therefore it’s not important for us to drive to the Grand Canyon.
Many thanks…
Is it best to prearrange a tour of the Grand Canyon, or can we get one whilst there?
We are looking at travelling to the Grand Canyon in Mid April, whilst staying in Las Vegas. Is it better to self drive or get an organised trip.
We do want to see the Skywalk and also helicopter to the floor?
Thanks everyone
Flying through the Grand Canyon in a helicopter - trip from Las vegas. What should we wear - it is cool up t?

Driving to The Grand Canyon from Las Vegas?
Going to Vegas for a full week in June. We must find something to do while their besides gambling. So we decided to rent a car (dnt want to take bus or helicopter) and drive to the grand canyon. I have done some research, but would like to know if anyone has done this? Where exactly should we go in the Grand Canyon? I know their are plenty of “rims” to visit…any advice would be appreciated……
BTW….we arent of the “outdoorsy” type, so hiking and extreme sports are out of the question…..
Thank you…now how do I get directions to the south rim lol…….and how long does it take i heard 5 hours….
WHATS THE BEST WAY TO SEE THE GRAND CANYON?
We are a family of 5 from Australia and are going to USA next year. We will be spending a few days in Las Vegas. Can anyone recommend a good way of seeing the Grand Canyon? I believe the helicopter rides can be very expensive especially as there are 5 of us. Do the tours go from Las Vegas? How long are they? Any info on tours etc would be really appreciated.
To I(heart)Pepsi…how long would it take to drive from Las Vegas to the Grand Canyon? Thanx for your helpful tips.
