There are a variety of Las Vegas air tours, but the best of all has to be the Scenic Desert Glider Flight. This Las Vegas tour doesn´t have the irritating noise of aircraft engines or helicopter blades whirring above . . . it´s just you and the whistle of air flowing over the canopy.

Gliders are a very light aircraft with a larger than normal wingspan. They need to be towed up into the air behind a proper airplane, but once released, they soar silently over the desert, allowing for an unobstructed view. These aircraft can stay airborne as long as there is wind to carry them upwards. The warm spirals of air that you see birds soaring on can also be used by a glider, to soar ever higher. Your flight duration depends entirely on how good the desert thermals are the day of the tour.

The Las Vegas Scenic Glider Flight is an excellent, unique way to see Las Vegas. It is a great Las Vegas tour to take if you don´t have much time, as well, since the tour lasts between 30-45 minutes. It´s something you can plan to do in one afternoon and still have time to walk the Strip.
