This was a great experience from. From the moment I booked Maverick Helicopters communication has been excellent and professional. The pilot was amazing, he made us feel very welcome and answered all our questions. There base being just past the Fabulous Las Vegas sign was really continent for us as we didn't have the time to travel to anywhere else.

Traveling by helicopter is the way to visit The Grand Canyon. We got to fly over Lake Mead, Hoover Dam, land in the Grand Canyon and on the way back fly down the strip. Awesome experience—the day we went it was 102, dry heat is still HOT when u are up there—stay hydrated. Captain Doug was our pilot and he was a good one. Very knowledgeable and friendly.

This was quite possibly the best thing I’ve ever done! My husband and I both had the most amazing time. From the minute we stepped into the terminal the service was amazing. The pilot put us at complete ease and to make things even better we got to sit in the front for the first leg of the journey. The views were incredible and the photos just don’t do it justice. We really had the experience of a lifetime and will do this again in a shot if we ever come back to Vegas. Thanks Maverick for making this so memorable!!

What an amazing experience. The flight of two times 45 minutes (round trip from the Grand Caynon). Luxury and pleasant helicopter (AirbusEurocopter). The pilot was professional and sympathetic. The flight was from Las Vegas over lake Meadow, Hoover Dam to the Grand Caynon where you land in the middle of the Caynon for a drink and a snack.

Exceptional experience that created a lifetime of memories. Our pilot, Caleb, was kind, knowledgeable and made the trip feel personalised. They didn’t have our photos when we got back and I tried to purchase the frame without the picture as was told they couldn’t do that. (Even though the sell the frame without the picture in it) overall 9/10 experience just the issue of trying to but the merch without the photo.

I knew this birthday gift for my husband would be amazing, but I never dreamed it would be as breathtaking and beautiful as it turned out to be. Every time I looked over, the look on his face will forever be embedded in my mind. You couldn't wipe the smile off his face. Our pilot was top-notch...informative, and personable. Maverick Helicopters' communication is great, and they are very well organized. If you're on the fence about booking, don't hesitate. It's worth every penny. We are excited to return to Vegas and have already talked about taking one of their other tours.
