4.00A unique experience. Seeing the Grand Canyon from a completely different, breathtaking perspective. I must say, we were very fortunate to be only three or four with the pilot in the helicopter. In other groups, there were up to 8 passengers, which gets really cramped. Also to be criticized is the now missing shuttle service. Otherwise, it was really great.
Efficient and effective

5.00This was an amazing adventure for me. I’m an 80-year-old person who got to see the Grand Canyon sit in the Grand Canyon have champagne and then saw the sun set. It was beautiful.

5.00What a tour this was…flew over Hoover Dam and into the Canyon to a beautiful landing spot and having other helicopters in the group land close by and having wine and snacks on a park bench! Even with other company helicopters nearby they are still separated from each other.
