Take in the magic of the Grand Canyon with an aerial tour in either an EcoStar or jet-powered helicopter, both one-of-a-kind experiences offering the most picturesque views. For travelers exploring the park by land, hop on a Jeep or Hummer tour and sit back and enjoy a chauffeured, open-air scenic ride through the canyon. This excursion includes stops at some of the most popular lookout areas, allowing guests to enjoy views of the rock formations and gorges dating back to prehistoric times.

 

Whitewater river rafting is another unique way to explore the Grand Canyon. Rafting journeys range from daytrips to multiday adventures, where travelers can experience rafting and the area like never before.

Keep These Items Out of Your (and Your Kid’s) Carry-On If You Don’t Want to Miss Your Flight

Lines at TSA checkpoints can be long enough, but when you’ve got something in your carry-on that raises a red flag, you could be there much longer than anticipated. There are the obvious things you can’t take on a plane, like weapons and liquids more than 3.4 ounces, but some things that seem totally innocent could lead to unnecessary delays and missed flights.

Best of Both Worlds

Enjoy the best of both worlds when you fly with TAP Air Portugal thanks to the Portugal Stopover program. With the program, TAP passengers, whether traveling for business, leisure or both, can stop in Portugal for up to 10 days at no additional airfare on the way to their final destination. What does this mean for travelers wishing to explore by both land and sea? It means after flying to Portugal with TAP and experiencing the country in an entirely new way, travelers can then embark on scenic river and ocean cruises from  Portugal’s port cities, or fly with TAP to another European destination.
