The line for the shuttle bus was very long as you can see from our photo. You are not permitted to drive to the Skywalk. The only way to get to the Skywalk is by shuttle bus. The Visitor Center is located several miles from the canyon and the Skywalk. The line for tickets was roughly a 30-minute wait. If you did not purchase your tickets in advance, you can buy them here. Next to the parking lot is the Visitor Center. The lot was filled and we had to wait in line in order to find a parking spot. Once at Grand Canyon West, we parked in an enormous parking lot. It is located on the Hualapai Indian Reservation and is owned and operated by the Hualapai Tribe. The Skywalk is not located in Grand Canyon National Park. If you drive directly from Las Vegas to Grand Canyon West, it takes 2 to 2.5 hours (130 miles).Most of the drive is on a highway but the final 45 miles is on a two-lane paved road through small towns. We drove out from Las Vegas, stopping along the way for a quick visit to Hoover Dam.
