If you like flying, the perfect Las Vegas tour for you is the glider tour. Gliders are planes without engines and they have an extra wide wing span to keep them aloft longer. In the narrow cockpit, there is usually room for just two people and the clear canopy curves over your head, giving you a very clear view of the Nevada Desert and Las Vegas.
Before you start to wonder if it isn´t a bit dangerous, taking off in a plane without an engine, don´t worry. You´ll be towed up with a plane and then the cable will be cut loose. Your expert pilot can either give you a smooth, relaxing glider tour or you can experience some flips and loops with a Las Vegas Aerobatic tour!
There is really no other sensation like soaring in a glider over the desert. Without the engine, everything is silent, except for the sound of the wind rushing over the wings. If you´re lucky, you´ll catch a thermal and, like a bird, soar higher and higher before gliding down to land in the designated landing area. Gliders are completely safe and the pilot can easily direct and maneuver it, as you´ll see if you take the aerobatic flight. This could very well be the best Las Vegas tour yet!
It´s highly recommended that you book ahead of time, since the gliders will need to be scheduled and this is a very popular tour.
