Both the helicopter tour and the sunset hummer tour were amazing! This was our first visit to the Grand Canyon and to experience our very first views from the helicopter was incredibly beautiful and awe inspiring!!! Chills and a lump in my throat… We really appreciated how enormous the canyon is. Our only regret was that we didn’t book an hour tour! Both our pilot and hummer driver were very informative and fun! ! Would definitely recommend this wonderful adventure.

The awe and wonder of the view from above and what great power it took to move the earth in such a way….God, He is the source of that power. Thank you for the experience and thanks to the skills of the pilot.
Amazing incredible views
Kimberly_S, Jul 2023
The views were incredible of the Grand Canyon and the National Forest. Even though my kids feel asleep during the ride, my husband and I very much enjoyed the helicopter tour and pilot guide. 10/10, it was a once in a lifetime experience that we are so glad we did. The tour requests that you arrive 30 minutes prior to your time of departure. However, after arriving first for our tour time, we proceeded to wait an additional 30-45 minutes after our scheduled time to finally board the helicopter. Other groups came and completed their tours before we finally took off. This was very frustrating, especially having small chip with us who were getting impatient.
Great time
