I loved the experience of flying in the grand canyon, it's worth what it costs! You enter the grand canyon, they give you champagne, then you fly towards sunset and it is something magical, when I return to Las Vegas I will surely repeat it
Great trip, the whole set up was very well run and the pilot was great. Not cheap but definitely worth it.
This was definitely one of the best things we've ever done absolutely amazing, this should 100% be on your bucket list, thank you!!
A 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.
It is very professional and utterly enjoyable. The ride was comfortable. The champagne and snacks were a treat
Maverick is the BEST!! They have the best pilots & helicopters in the business! Flown with them many times over an 8 yr period & never been disappointed. Thanks for a GREAT time, Blake!!
Our pilot Doug was great, making sure we got all the photos we wanted and we appreciated his playlist! Highly recommend and it’s not cheap, but it’s genuinely worth every penny!
We are glad you had an amazing experience flying with Doug! Thank you for your recommendation and for choosing Maverick Helicopters.
This 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.
We are glad you got to check this experience off your bucket list! Thank you for flying with us.
Great, trip. Great views and loved stopping in the Canyon to spend some time walking around. Flying over Hoover Dam was also so cool.
Connor was friendly, polite, and an EXCELLENT helicopter pilot. He made us feel safe and sound as we enjoyed hearing about interesting landmarks along the way to a beautiful champagne sunset 🌅 at the Grand Canyon.Our second trip with Maverick Helicopters, and we highly recommend them and our pilot Connor. 🚁🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
