4.00The 30 minute ride was amazing! The ability to see some of Bryce, lots of Zion, a bit of the Grand Canyon from above is unmatchable... the pilot shared great detail too. My only complaint is that with 6 passengers, we were quite stuffed in together.
Just Wow

5.00The service by Captain Kyle was stellar. We had an 89 year old with us and o wanted to treat her and my 25 year old daughter to a helicopter ride. I asked about the feasibility of getting her in/out of the aircraft we determined if we could get her IN we would leave her there and do all briefings at the craft. It was seamless. captain Kyle went above and beyond and got an umbrella to shade her and an icepack to keep her cool while the briefs were given and we all strapped in. SUPERIOR SERVICE!
Different but still fun.

4.00We ended up on a shorter, different tour because they did not fill the helicopter and put us with a different group. Captain Kyle was personable and competent.
Great flight

5.00We were thrilled with our 55-mile helicopter tour of Zion. Everyone at Zion Helicopter Tours was exceptionally friendly and helpful. Michelle went out of her way to accommodate our schedule, and Jesse was a terrific photographer. Our pilot, Kyle, made sure we had a flawless flight, and gave all five passengers a spectacular view of the terrain that would have been impossible to see by land. We have been on several other helicopter sightseeing rides, and this was by far the best. Worth every penny.
Beautiful scenery and very helpful staff

5.00The staff and pur pilot, Jordan were so much fun and very kind. We took off exactly on time for our flight. Jordan was a great pilot! He gave us the scoop on what we were seeing without overdoing it with a lot of favts. Thus we were able to relax and enjoy the view. This trip was well worth the cost-it was amazing!
Great tour!
