Grand Canyon visit stopping off at the ranch which was really special! Lucas was our pilot and he was a really great guy, and super tour guide.
Fantastic trip, our pilot, Eddy was very knowledgeable about what we were seeing and provided first class commentary / info…… as well as a smooth flight! Highly recommended
After I booked they said my hotel was not actually a pick up location and “TripAdvisor has incorrect information on the site”. They then immediately moved my flight time to much later. They kept pushing my flight time back further and further. Saying one second they had a full ready to go flight to then say later all other guest to mysteriously “cancel in the middle of the night” (their exact words). The continuation of moving my time made it impossible for me to plan anything else and I lost a full day in Vegas. Then I had to call them after waiting for hours for them to suggest a whole different day. Thankfully I got a refund but this was a frustrating waste of time
We recommend that you read Tripadvisors important information before booking a helicopter tour. Tripadvisor clearly states that we require a minimum number of passengers to operate non private helicopter tours. In the event that we need to consolidate your Grand Canyon helicopter flight, we will extend several alternative departure times to ensure you get to experience flying inside the Grand Canyon.
We had a great pilot that was very knowledgeable about all of our surroundings, I would recommend this tour to anyone looking to have an educational good time on a helicopter tour
This was an incredible experience from start to finish. The hotel pickup was effortless, and it was easy to arrange everything with the team via WhatsApp. Our driver, Joe, was friendly, professional, and very helpful. Once we arrived we had our safety briefing and met our pilot, Eddie. As someone who was quite nervous about flying, I really appreciated how calm, friendly, and reassuring he was. He immediately put me at ease and made the whole experience enjoyable. During the flight, Eddie shared interesting information about the history of the area and pointing everything out to us so that we didn’t miss anything, which made the trip even more memorable. The views were absolutely breathtaking, and the 90-minute flight felt like the perfect amount of time to take it all in. The transfer to the heliport was only a short journey, making the whole experience smooth and convenient and I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of the tour. The company were very professional throughout and I felt reassured by their focus on safety. I would highly recommend 5 star helicopter tours to anyone looking for an unforgettable way to see the Grand Canyon!
This is a must do when visiting Vegas. The views are awesome. Not a whole lot more I can say, you have to see to believe
I couldn’t rate the whole experience better than 11 out of 10. They started when I was picked up by Mr. Personality Joe and then it continued with Luke and then back to Joe who was very kindwith directions and stories. Customer satisfaction absolutely would I do it again for sure🍟☑️
Our captain Lucas was excellent. Very energetic, knowledgeable, and trustworthy with the helicopter. We had a great time seeing the remarkable landscape and cityscape. This was a great trip and very much worth the time! Shout out to Joe as well (our driver)! He was very friendly and got us to and from the airport without any issues.
