Enjoy Grand Canyon Rafting With Family And Friends

The Grand Canyon is a popular, well-known visitor site in the western part of the United States, and serves over a million visitors each year. Many of those visitors take part in the Grand Canyon rafting tours. Since these tours are over smooth water, children as young as four are welcome aboard. Guests take a two and a half hour bus trip from their hotel room or the local airport to Page, Arizona, where they transfer over to large nineteen passenger rafts. This begins the 15.3 mile rafting trip that ends up at historic Lee’s Ferry, where a bus is waiting to take passengers back to their starting point. Swimming, lunch on the beach and an optional hike for those who enjoy exploring are also included in the tour. Early morning and late evening views from the rim are some of the most breath-taking that visitors will experience. The ever-changing shadows on the walls leave behind incredible sites.

As for the Skywalk, it’s a bridge made of glass that lets travelers walk some 70 feet over the edge of the rim until they are standing 4k feet over the bottom. The views from the platform are incredible, especially the one of Eagle Point. Be advised that personal electronics like cameras and smartphones are not allowed because if dropped they can harm the glass deck. South Rim tours are air-only. They do not fly below the rim and land at the bottom. You can pick between a 30-minute ride or a 50-minute ride. The shorter one goes from the South Rim to the North Rim and back, while the longer one does that, too, plus it goes to the Park’s eastern boundary and spends extended time over the North Rim. Do the longer tour and you’ll have seen up to 75 percent of the National Park. I hope this article about July 4th holiday helicopters helped you plan your Grand Canyon adventure. I do recommend you book early and online as these flights will sell out. From Vegas, I urge you to consider a landing tour, especially the one that comes with a Champagne picnic. From South Rim, go for the 50-minute tour. Finally, make sure you book your flight online. You’ll have access to more flights and you will most certainly get a better price.

I love the Quest’s easy-on, instant-start satisfaction.

They feel like the future of VR input. They also have some nice extras that the Vive controllers lack, like buttons and analog sticks. That makes them serve as more-capable game controllers, much like the Oculus Touch controllers. It’s great that these controllers can work with all the games and apps that support Vive’s controllers, so there’s a deep library to tap into. They can be your Vive replacement controllers, easily. But that being said, only a handful of games take advantage of the Index controllers’ unique qualities right now. And, even in that list, some games don’t really do much with the extra finger tracking. The brilliant Aperture Hand Lab is a great demo app that shows what experiences could do when designed with these controllers in mind. But how many games and apps will bother to do that? 399 Oculus Quest, all self-contained and wireless, not needing any PC at all, was a more surprising experience to me than Valve Index. I love the Quest’s easy-on, instant-start satisfaction. Admittedly, it’s a totally different proposition: it’s using a mobile chip and has a limited closed-off curated library of games. It’s not as powerful as Valve Index. Again, sorry for the comparison. But I want VR to become more effortless and wire-free, easy to be immersed in. Valve Index isn’t that. You need a PC. You need those sensor boxes in your room. There’s a long, thick cable. It is, however, an improved set of hardware that the Steam VR platform needed, and those Index controllers are really great. I just don’t know, at this point, whether it’s worth your money to dive in.

There are plenty of PC-connected VR headsets, and most of them work the same way: a set of full-motion controllers, a bulky head display that has a long thick cord going to your PC. Maybe it has extra room sensors you need to set up. The Valve Index is not much different from other PC VR headsets in that regard (see also: Oculus Rift S, HTC Vive, or Microsoft’s VR offerings). It’s not wireless, it doesn’t have eye tracking, and it hasn’t reinvented a way to not be a bulky, cabled headset. But it is probably one of the best PC VR headsets of the moment, and its wild new controllers feel like the future. And yet I recently had a realization I never thought of the first time I tried the hardware weeks ago: this doesn’t feel like a new system. That’s because you don’t need to buy all of it if you’re already someone who owns an HTC Vive.

You might have shopped in a lot of markets, but probably exploring a floating market would be a first. Going on this tour can give you informative knowledge about the Thai culture as well as food. You will find hereseveral merchants selling an array of colourful tropical fruits, prawns, rice, coconut sugar candy and many other stuffs on small self – paddled boats. Away from the hustle bustle of the city life, Lumphini park with its artificial lake, boat rides and shady paths is a wonderful place to be. When here, you can rent a variety of boats and indulge into spending some quality time with your special someone in a serene environment. If you are in for witnessing some old city charms, then Wat Pho is the place for you to go to. Comprising of numerous temples sporting beautiful features, the place is also known to house the largest reclining Buddha as well as the largest collection of Buddha images in the entire country. Not only the place is a centre for public education but also offers traditional Thai massage to visitors. If you go to Thailand and don’t visit the famous Pattaya beach, then your visit would remain incomplete. The place is a paradise comprising of small islands and serene beaches which are known worldwide for the picturesque quality and exceptional scenery. It’s a 2-hour drive from Bangkok and you can even indulge in some water sports like snorkelling and kayaking. So, wait no more and book one of the Bangkok packages to spend some most memorable moments of your life with your partner!
