We took the early morning super saver fare which had us taking off at 7:00. We couldn't beat the price and it was nice to not have to deal with traffic and being from the midwest we were up at 4 any way. We drove ourselves ecause we wanted to explore the Hoover Dam and Boulder City after our trip and so I can't comment on the shuttle service. We did the 4 hour trip with a landing/meal in the canyon. The views were awesome and it would have been nice to have more than 20 minutes in the canyon as it felt rushed to try to eat, drink and explore. The entire thing was only a little over 2 hours as we were back around 9:00. Our pilot was very nice and informative. Overall a great way to see the Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam.
