A bird’s eye view of Arches National Park
Our guide/pilot Adam did a great job of putting everyone at ease with his conversation and knowledge of the landscape. We had a very nervous flyer on our trip and Adam made sure to talk to her and make sure she had a great experience. We all had a great flight.

Unforgettable experience
I can’t recommend this flying tour enough! Seeing Moab’s incredible red rock landscapes from the air was absolutely breathtaking — Arches National Park every turn offered a new, jaw-dropping view. Our pilot was friendly, knowledgeable, and made us feel completely safe and comfortable throughout the flight. The commentary was great too — we learned fascinating facts about the geology and history of the area while gliding over some of the most beautiful terrain I’ve ever seen. The flight was smooth, the plane was spotless, and the entire team was professional and welcoming. If you’re visiting Moab and want a truly unique perspective of Utah’s stunning scenery, this tour is a must-do. It was the highlight of our trip!

Spectacular
James is awesome! The flight was smooth and spectacular. We hikes the arches when we got here, and then flew over them the next day. This tour is a must! Some arches you can only see via plane.
Operator response
Thank you so much for flying with us! We’re thrilled to hear you had such an amazing experience with James — he’s one of our best! It sounds like you made the perfect trip pairing: hiking the Arches one day and seeing them from above the next. We agree — some of those views can only be truly appreciated from the air. We appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back for another flight soon! — The Redtail Air Team

Amazing Flight Experience with James - Arches tour
My dad and I went on the Arches National Park tour at 9am with James as our pilot. The trip itself was SPECTACULAR! The flight was smooth, the views were incredible, and it gave us a unique perspective on Arches, along with Moab and its surroundings. James was the perfect pilot and tour guide, probably one of the nicest people I’ve met since being here, he answered all our questions, and was genuinely fun to be in the air with! We had never been in a single engine Cessna before but he was great at ensuring we were comfortable at all times. Amazing trip, fantastic experience, I would recommend to all! Views: 12/10 Flight: 20/10 James (Pilot): 100/10 Overall: priceless experience!
