Our pilot, Marcus was amazing! He offered a fun, narrative guided tour in the air. It was definitely a 5 Star experience flying over Mead Lake, the Hoover Dam and the Grand Canyon.
From weather updates before the flight to final hotel drop-off, this experience was amazing! Bob was very accommodating for our pickup, communication from 5 Star was fantastic, and our pilot was personable, funny, and very professional. We saw the Hoover Dam and went fairly deep into the Grand Canyon. We were shown how small the glass overhang was and how far away it was. If you don’t have a full day to see the Canyon on foot, this was pricier but definitely worth it!
I was scared at first because I am afraid of heights. It didn’t bother me at all. It was magical. I’m sold on seeing our natural wonders via helicopter now. Lucas was an amazing pilot and tour guide. Very informational and calming. Loved this outing!💕
Great experience, very informative and efficient way of seeing Vegas from the air, highly recommend to anyone visiting Vegas.
Excellent tour operator with excellent staff and pilots. A great way to see the Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam.
The helicopter ride was magnificent. The view of the grand canyon from a helicopter is unlike anything I have experienced.
Lucas was a fantastic helicpter pilot and guide. His passion for camping/hiking and for the Grand Canyon really shone through. If you want to see the true beauty of the canyon from the best possible perspective, Lucas is your man!
The tour was exactly as described in the website. Overall, we had a fantastic experience. Our pilot Lucas was phenomenal, his explanations were very informative and made the tour that much more interesting on a picture perfect day. Thanks Lucas !
Our pilot was knowledgeable about what we flew over and the area. The support staff was amazing, they took a photo of us with the helicopter before we took off. We got the most amazing pictures and videos. They are called 5 Star for a reason, we give them a 10 out of 10. I highly recommend it we got 5 star treatment the entire time.
Awesome experience. Very professional pilot. A view of the Grand Canyon that you could never see from the ground.
