I planned a surprise birthday present for my husband since we have never really visited Scottsdale before. I called a week in advance to double check the date we had set and he reassured me that everything was perfect. After waiting over an hour at the courtyard outside his office and numerous phone calls and messages to his phone letting... More

I received an email 12 hours prior to our flight cancelling it due to mechanical issues. I replied asking when the heli would be repaired so I could rebook. No response. I looked online for new appointments. None were available. Waste of a Groupon. More

We did the 30 minute tour that Mike customized to what we wanted to see. He was great about pointing interesting sights to us, helping us find key landmarks. We felt completely safe and we're both ready to go again! Next time I'd love to go for an hour or more! More

We had the 30 minute helicopter ride at Dryden Helicopters. As the rotors were winding up, our excitement rose. Flying in a helicopter is unlike anything else I have ever done.

Because of my time there was a restriction of where we could go due to normal air traffic. The pilot-owner... More

Since this would be our first visit to Scottsdale area I thought that this would be a great way for us to enjoy the skyline and something cool to do on our Labor Day visit. Unfortuntely we never did... More

I took the Deluxe tour yesterday with Arizona Helicopters of Sedona. The doors of the Hughes helicopter were off to allow the wind to keep us cool and to maximize the views. As a local resident I thought I'd pretty much seen Sedona's magnificent red rocks. But this was several notches above what I expected. The real highlights were in... More
