An Amazing way to experience the Grand Canyon

5.00An amazing experience, what better way to visit the Grand Canyon than by helicopter! Flew over Hoover Dam, through the Grand Canyon then stopped off at a Ranch for a Buffalo burger and to be serenaded by Cowboy Dave, Backstreet Boys watch out! Great experience, aided by a great pilot 👊 Please bear in mind that this was not our initial booking, our initial flight was not fully booked so we were fortunate enough to upgrade to the above detailed package.
Bad Scheduling

4.00The actually experience was excellent but the scheduling is very annoying. After you book a time on Viator, they will literally call you everyday threatening to cancel your flight if you don’t adjust your scheduled time because they are trying to compress the schedule. Just don’t give in to them
Don’t miss out on this!

5.00This helicopter ride was an adventure of a lifetime! Eddie, our pilot, was knowledgeable and humorous while making sure we were all safe on the flight there and back. Highly recommend having lunch at the ranch in between to stretch your legs and relax. 10 out of 10 would recommend to anyone in Vegas!
Beautiful scenery but….

3.00Of course the canyon is beautiful but if you want to photograph it you need a window seat. I chose the middle rear seat as it was my husbands birthday and I wanted him to really enjoy the flight. It wasn’t worth the $700 Cdn I paid for myself but it was a bucket list wish so I’m glad we went. The admin staff were very helpful except when they told me the view was great from every seat. Not true for me. I enjoyed seeing the strip from above and seeing Hoover dam was also interesting. The trip was well organized from the pick up at our hotel , the safety video, and the flight. I think the company is efficient without too much waiting around. A memorable trip
Lifetime experience!

4.00Beautiful scenery but I was in the middle rear seat so my photos are not great. I couldn’t understand some the pilots comments regarding the landmarks and she couldn’t hear my questions. I think if you are in a window seat your experience will be better. The admin staff are wonderful and helpful with the booking process. I was well informed by them each step of the way. I’m glad I went
Best of the Grand Canyon!

5.00Absolutely the Best. My Wife Loved it. Our pilot "Mad Dog Mike" was the best. So much history about the canyon and beautiful views. Even got to sit up front. Next visit we'll stay over night at the Ranch. You've got to do this.
