Grand Canyon West Heli Tour met boottocht en optionele toegangspas
Beschrijving
Toeristen in de Grand Canyon West kunnen het park ervaren met dit spannende helikopter- en bootavontuur. Op onze nabijgelegen luchthaventerminal stapt u in een luxe helikopter en daalt u adembenemend 1200 meter af naar de bodem van de kloof. Je helikopter zal landen nabij de oever van de Colorado-rivier, bijna anderhalve kilometer onder de rand van de kloof. Je gaat dan aan boord van een pontonboot en geniet van een soepele watercruise langs deze oude rivier, die tot op de dag van vandaag de kloof blijft eroderen en uitsnijden. Je zult getuige zijn van de veranderende kleuren en texturen van de stenen muren aan weerszijden van je terwijl je vredig tussen de Grand Canyon West zweeft. Na uw boottocht gaat u aan boord van uw helikopter en keert u terug naar de rand van de kloof.

Great experience, fabulous way to experience the grand canyon. Makes you feel really quite small. However the companys logistics are beyond woeful, delayed departure from heliport, followed by a further delay at tge grand canyon for our onward flight into the canyon. Leaving us a hour to experience the skywalk, and the viewing point. Rushed back to the heliport as per our instructions, only to wait an hour to fly back to boulder heliport. On arrival at heliport we are advised that our return transfers to our hotel has been delayed by 45 mins. Giving us a 2 hour delay in total, absolutely shocking for a premium product. I will be reaching out for a partial refund.
Brilliant, great team, lovely pilots, amazing skipper. I'd never been to the GC before, when we went over the edge, I shed a tear of joy and awe. The whole family were blown away.
The flight itself was great! Neither pilot on either trip was communicative - I was also surprised we didn’t wear proper headphones. So it was a quick, quiet trip down and a quick, quiet trip back after the boat ride on the Colorado River. Pilots were safe and did a good job flying the helicopters. Part of our trip included a short boat ride on the river and our driver was awesome! Full of great history and facts about the region.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the helicopter flights and that our pilots provided a safe journey into and out of the Canyon. It’s wonderful to know the boat ride and guide on the Colorado River made the trip even more memorable with their history and insights. We also appreciate your feedback about the communication during the flights, as it helps us improve the experience for future guests.
Helicopter ride was absolutely stunning! I cried going down into the Grand Canyon - soooo beautiful and a smooth ride. Pilot was quiet but not rude. And the pontoon boat driver was kind and offered to take pictures of us on the boat. Glad we got selfies of us with the helicopter in the background as they were not offered.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that the helicopter ride was so stunning and that you enjoyed the smooth flight and friendly service from our pilot and pontoon boat driver. We’re also glad you were able to capture your own special moments with the helicopter. Your feedback is appreciated, and we look forward to welcoming you back for another amazing adventure!
We booked this tour for our 20th wedding anniversary. Overall service provided by Papillon was excellent and I would highly recommend them. From our initial booking they were very helpful with any queries we had. On the day of our tour we enjoyed a visit to Guano Point before our helicopter tour. This really was the highlight of our whole holiday. As it was our anniversary the staff arranged for just the 2 of us to be in the helicopter travelling down. The pontoon trip along the Colorado River was amazing - so scenic - and the guide provided us with interesting information along the way. There was water available after the pontoon trip while we waited for our helicopter trip back up and staff here had everything well organised. I would definitely recommend booking with Papillon - thank you so much!
Thank you so much for your beautiful review, and congratulations on your 20th wedding anniversary! We’re truly honored that you chose to celebrate such a special occasion with us. It’s wonderful to hear that every step of your journey—from booking to the scenic pontoon ride and helicopter experience—was memorable and well organized. We’re especially happy to know our team was able to make your anniversary extra special with a private flight down into the canyon! Thank you for your kind words and high recommendation. We’re so glad this tour was the highlight of your holiday, and we hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable adventure in the future.
Experience was too notch :) guides were amazing. Had such a great time. Will definitely do it again.
Such an amazing experience! The guides were great and the guide that drove the boat took extra time for our pictures and videos
Great disappointment after the helicopter tour. They didn't meet the ADD-ON's. Even greater disappointment is that Viator does not want to answer for U$S 220 charged. Looks like a fraud.
My husband had never been to the Grand Canyon and I had explained to him that you had to see it with your own eyes to appreciate the view. We were on a road trip with limited time and drove to the west rim from Vegas. The heli and pontoon ride from start to finish took about 1 1/2 hours. Our helicopter pilot did not converse with us but we were lucky to be the only ones in the vehicle going into the canyon and had a great view. We had to ask where to go for the pontoon boat but the boat guide was very knowledgeable and pleasant. Well priced for what we did.
Helicopter pilot wasn't friendly. Not even a hello or any informative narration during the entire ride. No photo opportunity with Helicopter like the picture in tour fliers. It was a hush hush entry and exit. Ride was smooth though. Boat tour was fun and the driver was informative.
