The day was perfect and Cody was such a fantastic pilot and guide. We landed in the canyon and had champagne. Doesn’t get any better. Definitely glad we did this

This is a once in a lifetime excursion! The experience from start to finish was easy, and the pilot kept us informed of any potential bumps along the way, and many landmark locations on the trip out to the Grand Canyon. P flying over the Hoover Dam was really awesome! We landed in the Grand Canyon with the most stunning views, tranquility, and really special moments with nature. Returning to Vegas, we got to see the sunset behind the mountains and did a flyover of Fremont Street and the Vegas strip just before landing back at the airport. Truly an amazing experience with the family and Jace, our pilot, was incredibly friendly and kind.

Very professional service- pilot was great- views breathtaking. A great way to see the Grand Canyon and not spend hours driving from Las Vegas. Landed deep in the canyon- just amazing.

Not recommended! Very little narration; boring helicopter ride through the dessert. Beverage, peanuts and pretzels on the land in GC and back with a quick stop to gas the helicopter. Save your hard earned $$$. Not worth it!

Took my first ever helicopter ride with Maverick Helicopter Tours and it did NOT disappoint. At first, I’ll admit I was a bit hesitant when I saw how young the pilot was, but that feeling disappeared fast. He was calm, confident, and clearly knew exactly what he was doing. The ride was incredibly smooth and his skill really showed. Seeing everything from that perspective was just wild. It’s one of those experiences that genuinely makes you stop and appreciate things differently. Absolutely a must-do at least once in your life. Highly recommend, easy 5 stars.

Excellent tour with a fabulous pilot. Would highly recommend. The mid day flight to the Grand Canyon was very hot (101F) and interior of the helicopter, while air conditioned, was also warm. Dress appropriately. But the view of the canyon is unmatched!
