Looks like Disney have got hold of this area, and unfortunately this canyon of beauty has been cheapened by this money-making tourist trap.If you wanna see the real grand canyon and not this shallow stuff,then head for the North Rim
There might be a lot of people waiting to get on - so it seems not out of the ordinary that they would as them to hurry along - besides they may have not been paying customers.
These days? You really shouldn't mistake your recent observations made in your short life for an accurate perspective on the world and "people". Since money determines how comfortable one is in this world, even you are not immune to its charms. This is not meant to be insulting so please do attempt to find flaws in my statement or start an argument. Thanks and happy youtubing man.
So, If I was on it and I heard "KEEP MOVING!" I would just run through at full throttle and make everyone else run as fast as me even old grandmothers and I would run and run and not care because nobody can run as fast as me.
Will how can you enjoy such wonders of the world have someone with a microphone tell you to move i guess i go 50 feet away form that place go look all day
Complete ripoff..a family of 4 could take a helicopter tour for less money and see a hell of a lot more! Word of mouth is already killing off the tourists....visitors are down almost 70% since word of this tourist trap/highway robbery has gotten out...save your cash-look over the edge anywhere else-same view......
If you wana see the Grand canyon...drive the extra 2 hours and go to the US National Park which is 55mi North of Williams Arizona. USNat Park charges $25 per CAR, NO camera fees, NO extra fees. The view from the edge is just as impressive as the skywalk.
Appropriate that it resembles a large animal trap. This thing couldn't be any more of a tourist trap than if they lined it with jagged metal teeth and attached a huge spring to it.
At least if you go to the Sears Tower ledge (another glass floor attraction) it only costs $15, you haven't wasted an entire day getting in, you get to take your own pictures, no one shouts at you to hurry so they can fleece the next sucker, and you get to look at downtown Chicago instead of a bunch of rocks.
The Skywalk is NOT WORTH IT!!!! Just a few hundred yards away you can walk to the edge of the canyon for free look over and get better views. You also are not allowed to take your own pictures but have the option to pay a ridiculous amount of money for a picture done by them on top of the ridiculous amount of money you already paid to walk on this. I regret spending the money on this trap, it seriously was a waste.
It was an awesome experienced even if you have vertigo...no problemat all for the 4 people in my party. Good Spring Break 2010 Liked the Military discount, thanks!
We received Military discount of 15% for the bus and the Sky Walk, we had a flight into the small airport there from Las Vegas, and had to ride the bus, even though it was at a walking distance...The glass that was broken was replaced by a metal sheet,the glass is already all scratched up and I understood the reason not to take any personal items into the bridge, is to protect it from the objects falling on the glass, and braking it.
If they were forthcoming about all the fees involved, I would not have a problem. But once someone goes to the trouble of driving there on tedious, unpaved roads and wastes all that time, you are almost committed to paying all these fees if you don't want to feel like you haven't COMPLETELY wasted your time. This tactic is sneaky, and underhanded. I would NEVER recommend this to ANYONE. Drive a little further down the road and see the canyon for next to free, its a muuuuch better idea.
...Say that (somehow) you are still in a cheery enough mood to get your picture taken. The employees will snap your photo for an additional $20. All in all, we as a group spent more money on this "attraction" than we did for our hotel room for a several day's stay in Vegas. Do yourself a favor and save your money for the blackjack table, hell even burning the money would have given me more joy than the feeling of being manipulated and taken advantage of that I got at this place. RIDICULOUS!
...After realizing the total bill for our three-man party is $225, they inform you that no personal affects are allowed on the skywalk and enforce this via security checkpoints and metal detectors. But don't worry if you've forgotten to leave your items in your car prior to the bus ride, they are more than happy to loan you a locker (for a price!). Once you get out on the walk, you are kept at a distance from the edge so that viewing the bottom is damn near impossible...
We just drove from Las Vegas to the famed skywalk today and were met with extortionate, underhanded business tactics. First, you drive roughly 50 miles through a shitty town and a 20 mile winding DIRT road which ends up being about a 1.5 hour diversion just to get to the FIRST checkpoint. Once there, you have to pay to take the MANDATORY bus ride to the damn thing and the entrance fee to get on it (two separate fees). This comes to about $75 / person....

As for now, only four people have fallen down and died from the skywalk. The glass beneath them broke for two of them, while the other two was unfortunately thrown out because they started to fight.
Fortunately, the glass have now been replaced by stronger ones.
I wish I could jump off with a parachute and then a black hole could be made all of a sudden and take me forward into the future or another dimension and I could understand everything and I mean everything (the universe, the dead, life, chemistry, mathematics, quantum mechanics).

the thing at the end with the open trash can in the wind goes to show just how stupid and lazy americans are: millions of dollars spent on this skywalk and they could not invest a measly $200 for a garbage can with a chute that closes with no chance of plastic escaping in the wind. yeah let's just hire a W.O.P. to stand there and break his back all day and hope the wind doesn't blow too hard.
dude its just for the things they wear on they're feet... they're not dumping anything else in it. us americans are smart enough not to waste $200 on something that will not accumulate to much
There is always someone who has to ruin everything. Why do people have to make such negative comments. If you don't like it , don't go there. In time the fees will be lower. I would love to go see this. I've been to the Canyon in the late 70s and "Everyone" see it at least once in your life. Take your Kids,your Grandkids, Just go and see this Massive Beautiful Canyon....
Your negative comments are Juvenile at best Get a life and quit spoiling mine! You Make comments that are not true.
WHO is yelling "KEEP MOVING"?? This is sort of a tourist ripoff/prison/Native American ripoff/ experience...that only the wealthy can afford. And it doesn't look like you can even SEE the bottem of the canyon...who the hell thought of this one...
wait, you have to pay to walk around that peice of donkey anal secretion diarrhea fanny douche bag crap? what bibmo indian fag thouhgt of that? stupid oafs go make money somewhere else, like in the mcdonalds stock market or something, but dont mooch money of people to walk across a glass horseshoe, its like charging 25 cents to drink out of a water fountain
I'm not from the USA..but dickheadr I don't have to know where you are from..I just figure it's from some pooor shothole in the world..where there are no jobs,the women have hair under their armpits and bad teeth and basically a filthy country...in other words you are just some jealous dumbfuck.
I was in Vegas with my wife and two teen kids right before the opening in 2007. I decided to drive out there in a Mustang rental for a road trip (we were there a week). We made it to the access road off of the state road there. The access road is about 20 miles long and dirt, its HEAVILY rutted, still we had drove a couple hours so I pressed on. 2 miles in I turned around, I thought an axle would break. The tour operators were using Hummers and flying to make it smooth. Big time tourist trap.
I hope that it crashes and falls from stupid people doing stupid shit like jumping on it so stuipd people with from now on respect the danger of heights.
Wow!! The skywalk has to be one of the 7coolest unnatural wonders of the world! This would make a great trip coupled with a jeep tour (cameras allowed:).
i went to vegas in march08 on holiday from england and the best way to see the canyon is by helicopter and its not expensive around 200dollars. its got to be the best thing i have ever done in my life! try it.
Do you realize how annoying helicopters and planes are to the people in the Canyon trying to enjoy nature? Next time do everyone a favor and take a walk.
if it wasnt for tourists like us visiting vegas and the canyon, spending billions of dollars every year, these places would be like shanty towns and most people living in these areas wouldnt be able to afford to live.
Actually if the federal government would give the mining and water rights back to the indians who own the land around the canyon they would be able to thrive financially. Because the federal govt ripped those resources out from under them they are forced to prostitute themselves out with stupid gimmicks like the skywalk and casinos to tourists in t-shirts. I ache for the day that Vegas dries up and blows away. The South Rim is an abomination against nature.
do you know how annoying are the airports to people living nearby while they are trying to enjoy their morning coffee? so are you suggesting to stop using airports too?
The vast majority of airports existed prior to the current neighbors moving in. The same can't be said for hiking/boating the canyon. People have been doing that since the dawn of time. Airports serve a necessary function. Recreational tourist planes and choppers serve only a selfish endeavor. Apples and oranges. Humans should only be as loud as the other animals in the park are being.
For $80 you should be able to actually stand and enjoy the view but those workers keep shouting 'Keep moving' which kind of ruins the whole experience..You pay that kind of money and then you have to keep walking while on it.. Like a herd of cattle. Looks like GREED to me.
Yes, the skywalk of Grand Canyon is so cool. I live in Arizona, yes, and I have been to the Grand Canyon for many times, but I have never been to the skywalk, my dad asked some old lady in a shop how much it was, and she said it was $80 a person, and I almost fainted. Weird people who like to steal your money. Thank you for the video, I absolutely <3 it, today I said I hated Arizona, because I was angry, but I was wrong, I love it, maybe just because of the Grand Canyon, wow.
tvgirlnyc, the topic is whether or not americans are foolish in comparison with the rest of the world for paying $90 for a skywalk tour. me, i think not. thats the topic at hand.
I just was there and all I can say is that it's pretty awesome - the feeling you get when you look through the glass and are staring four thousand feet down and yet you aren't falling is pretty much an adrenaline rush gone haywire kind of thing - I'm thinking extreme sports fans would love to do this....
Considering the number of non-US tourists the Grand Canyon attracts every year, and the number of foolish things promoted by non-american cultures around the globe, your Anti-American jab seems completely out of line. Thats all.
Anti-American jab? I see it as an honest assessment of my fellow Americans. I enjoy the company of individuals who aren't sheepishly attracted to every money-making swindle that comes down the pike. As I wrote in my previous comment: There are several hundred miles of rim surrounding the Grand Canyon. In one little point on the rim, a greedy band of Indians builds a goofy bridge that you can walk on for $60 and everybody feels left out if THEY DON'T DO IT TOO. Sheep. Baaaa. Baaaa.
Well call me a sheep. Ive been to the Grand Canyon. Walking up to the ridge was quite a rush, but walking on an open-air glass bridge jutting out over the edge would be taking that experience even further, for which I dont have the nerve to do. We have the CN tower where I am, and walking over the glass for is *most definitely* not the same as looking over the balcony. Have you been to either?
What are you referring to when you write "either"? I've been to the Grand Canyon several times. I have no idea what the "CN tower" is. None.
If you don't see this bridge as a money-making scam, then fine. But it certainly is a money-making scam. Pure and simple. I'm hardly the first or the only person to make this judgement.
And Americans, as well, also promote any number of "foolish things" every minuite of the day. It's called advertising.
CN tower: at this point you should google it, I cant change what you knew before this conversation.
Non-American foolishness: Homeopathy in the UK, Witchcraft in southern african nations, numerical superstitions of all types in south east asia. Im not american, but I just need to stress foolishness is by no means a US phenomena.
Homeopathy, witchcraft, superstitions... all of these are alive and well in the U.S. of A. I live in California where the silliest belief systems are elevated to the level of tax-exempt religion. You've never heard of Scientology? Am I targeting the U.S.? Those things all exist. Stupidities piled on top of stupidities. America is full of them. Please don't lecture me about my country. I've had to confront the stupidities first-hand all of my adult life.
How often does the Government of California issue warnings against its residents to not kill Albinos as witches (Tanzania), or go on a tour promoting the benefits of homeopathy (Prince Charles)? I'm not sure we're debating, Im just asking you to not underestimate the foolishness beyond your own borders.
You REALLY don't live in America, do you? It is difficult to UNDERestimate the foolishness in the U.S. in general and in California in particular. I mean, LOOK AT THE INTERVIEWEES IN THIS VIDEO FOR CHRISSAKES! WE ELECTED GEORGE BUSH FOR 2 TERMS! FOR CHRISSAKES! Who the hell is arguing that there isn't foolishness in all cultures? Jesus. I didn't say anything about any other cultures.
Ive spent much time in the states professionally and personally, with much family living there. And Ive visited other countries. I just find a theme bashing americans lately that seems somewhat targeted.
Another example: Nancy Reagan, former first lady of the U.S. and native of California consulted astrologers on a regular basis. There are fortune tellers and psychics all over California. They make a pretty good living. How much more evidence do you need for me to convince you that Americans believe bullshit just as much as any other culture? Why do you equate pointing out the truth to bashing?

I was there a couple of weeks ago on a coach trip from Las Vegas.
Thought I wouldn't be scared - WRONG - I was OK until I looked down and saw birds flying below me. The gibbering started around then.
It's expensive but you get plenty of time at the 3 sites and we had lunch provided too, and buses between the sites are included.
We weren't moved along the Skywalk and didn't feel rushed. It was a wonderful experience.
The souvenirs are rather crappy and expensive though.

There is always someone who has to ruin everything. Why do people have to make such negative comments. If you don't like it , don't go there. In time the fees will be lower. I would love to go see this. I've been to the Canyon in the late 70s and "Everyone" see it at least once in your life. Take your Kids,your Grandkids, Just go and see this Massive Beautiful Canyon....
Your negative comments are Juvenile at best Get a life and quit spoiling mine! You Make comments that are not true.

If they said "keep moving" to me I'd say "screw you'. Its cost $400 for a family of 4 to walk across this thing, I'm not going to keep moving.

I was in Vegas with my wife and two teen kids right before the opening in 2007. I decided to drive out there in a Mustang rental for a road trip (we were there a week). We made it to the access road off of the state road there. The access road is about 20 miles long and dirt, its HEAVILY rutted, still we had drove a couple hours so I pressed on. 2 miles in I turned around, I thought an axle would break. The tour operators were using Hummers and flying to make it smooth. Big time tourist trap.

taylor8455 3 years ago
Do you realize how annoying helicopters and planes are to the people in the Canyon trying to enjoy nature? Next time do everyone a favor and take a walk.
bionicearhiker 3 years ago
if it wasnt for tourists like us visiting vegas and the canyon, spending billions of dollars every year, these places would be like shanty towns and most people living in these areas wouldnt be able to afford to live.
taylor8455 3 years ago
Actually if the federal government would give the mining and water rights back to the indians who own the land around the canyon they would be able to thrive financially. Because the federal govt ripped those resources out from under them they are forced to prostitute themselves out with stupid gimmicks like the skywalk and casinos to tourists in t-shirts. I ache for the day that Vegas dries up and blows away. The South Rim is an abomination against nature.

do you know how annoying are the airports to people living nearby while they are trying to enjoy their morning coffee? so are you suggesting to stop using airports too?
undocumentedspot 3 years ago
The vast majority of airports existed prior to the current neighbors moving in. The same can't be said for hiking/boating the canyon. People have been doing that since the dawn of time. Airports serve a necessary function. Recreational tourist planes and choppers serve only a selfish endeavor. Apples and oranges. Humans should only be as loud as the other animals in the park are being.
childsfamilyvideos 3 years ago
For $80 you should be able to actually stand and enjoy the view but those workers keep shouting 'Keep moving' which kind of ruins the whole experience..You pay that kind of money and then you have to keep walking while on it.. Like a herd of cattle. Looks like GREED to me.

Yes, the skywalk of Grand Canyon is so cool. I live in Arizona, yes, and I have been to the Grand Canyon for many times, but I have never been to the skywalk, my dad asked some old lady in a shop how much it was, and she said it was $80 a person, and I almost fainted. Weird people who like to steal your money. Thank you for the video, I absolutely <3 it, today I said I hated Arizona, because I was angry, but I was wrong, I love it, maybe just because of the Grand Canyon, wow.

Considering the number of non-US tourists the Grand Canyon attracts every year, and the number of foolish things promoted by non-american cultures around the globe, your Anti-American jab seems completely out of line. Thats all.
rbairos1 3 years ago
Anti-American jab? I see it as an honest assessment of my fellow Americans. I enjoy the company of individuals who aren't sheepishly attracted to every money-making swindle that comes down the pike. As I wrote in my previous comment: There are several hundred miles of rim surrounding the Grand Canyon. In one little point on the rim, a greedy band of Indians builds a goofy bridge that you can walk on for $60 and everybody feels left out if THEY DON'T DO IT TOO. Sheep. Baaaa. Baaaa.
bapyou 3 years ago
Well call me a sheep. Ive been to the Grand Canyon. Walking up to the ridge was quite a rush, but walking on an open-air glass bridge jutting out over the edge would be taking that experience even further, for which I dont have the nerve to do. We have the CN tower where I am, and walking over the glass for is *most definitely* not the same as looking over the balcony. Have you been to either?
rbairos1 3 years ago
What are you referring to when you write "either"? I've been to the Grand Canyon several times. I have no idea what the "CN tower" is. None.
If you don't see this bridge as a money-making scam, then fine. But it certainly is a money-making scam. Pure and simple. I'm hardly the first or the only person to make this judgement.
And Americans, as well, also promote any number of "foolish things" every minuite of the day. It's called advertising.
bapyou 3 years ago
The CN tower stood (until a few months ago) as the tallest free standing structure *in the world* for over *3 decades*.
I just think you target Americans too specifically and harshly in your criticism of intelligence, nothing personal.
rbairos1 3 years ago
I still don't have a clue what the CN Tower is.
And give me an example of a "foolish thing...promoted by (a) non-american culture".
Again, American advertising is full of "foolish" promotions. It's a constant.
bapyou 3 years ago
CN tower: at this point you should google it, I cant change what you knew before this conversation.
Non-American foolishness: Homeopathy in the UK, Witchcraft in southern african nations, numerical superstitions of all types in south east asia. Im not american, but I just need to stress foolishness is by no means a US phenomena.
rbairos1 3 years ago 2
Homeopathy, witchcraft, superstitions... all of these are alive and well in the U.S. of A. I live in California where the silliest belief systems are elevated to the level of tax-exempt religion. You've never heard of Scientology? Am I targeting the U.S.? Those things all exist. Stupidities piled on top of stupidities. America is full of them. Please don't lecture me about my country. I've had to confront the stupidities first-hand all of my adult life.
bapyou 3 years ago
How often does the Government of California issue warnings against its residents to not kill Albinos as witches (Tanzania), or go on a tour promoting the benefits of homeopathy (Prince Charles)? I'm not sure we're debating, Im just asking you to not underestimate the foolishness beyond your own borders.
rbairos1 3 years ago
You REALLY don't live in America, do you? It is difficult to UNDERestimate the foolishness in the U.S. in general and in California in particular. I mean, LOOK AT THE INTERVIEWEES IN THIS VIDEO FOR CHRISSAKES! WE ELECTED GEORGE BUSH FOR 2 TERMS! FOR CHRISSAKES! Who the hell is arguing that there isn't foolishness in all cultures? Jesus. I didn't say anything about any other cultures.
bapyou 3 years ago
Ive spent much time in the states professionally and personally, with much family living there. And Ive visited other countries. I just find a theme bashing americans lately that seems somewhat targeted.
rbairos1 3 years ago
Another example: Nancy Reagan, former first lady of the U.S. and native of California consulted astrologers on a regular basis. There are fortune tellers and psychics all over California. They make a pretty good living. How much more evidence do you need for me to convince you that Americans believe bullshit just as much as any other culture? Why do you equate pointing out the truth to bashing?
