I am with Adventure Caravan and I had a group of people and we booked a last minute trip over Lake Powell, the Glenn Adam, Horseshoe Bend, and Rainbow Bridge. This company was amazing to work with, very accommodating and professional. The pilots were fabulous guides and pilots. We felt safe in their care and LOVED the trip! Thank you!!

This is a class act from planning stages to landing back in Phoenix, and it was an awesome adventure! Staff at Westwind answered my numerous calls and emails with friendly, informative patience. They helped me choose the perfect trip. We were greeted warmly at the airport and introduced to our pilot, Seth, a young, professional flight instructor, who immediately inspired confidence. The flight was so smooth, relaxing, and stunningly beautiful! The narration on our headsets was fascinating, but I often forgot to listen, as I was lost in the view. Passing over the Verde River and Sedona were incredible, but approaching and then flying over the canyon was beyond words.
We boarded Pink Jeeps after landing and spent the next few hours with two adorable, knowledgeable guides, who challenged us to stump them with our questions. They took us to several lookouts and to Grand Canyon National Park. So we got another perspective of the awesome Canyon from the ground. Even got to do a little shopping in Hopi House, a high quality artsy Native American shop. And we saw a large elk cow browsing along the roadside!
The return flight was again narrated via our headsets, with more cool info, or we could talk to our fellow passengers with whom we had just spent the afternoon.
We returned to pick up a nice souvenir picture of myself and my husband, taken before departure.
I highly recommend this trip. We were staying in Scottsdale, and it was a short drive to the Deer Valley Airport. I had initially looked at trips with 3 1/2 hour drives to the canyon, then plane or helicopter tours over it. For myself and my husband, this was a much better way to go. We had the view from above on the way, plus the much shorter travel time.
I can’t think of anything I would do to change this tour. In a word - fabulous!

We took the Phoenix to Antelope Canyon and Monument Valley (ACM) and picked up another two in Sedona on the way to Page, AZ. The flight was utterly fantastic. Seeing the Arizona and Utah countryside, including a portion of the Grand Canyon, from 10,000 feet and less was beyond description. There was still snow in the distant mountains and on the northward-facing slopes in central Arizona. Antelope Canyon was awe-inspiring at Canyon X, which is in between the lower and upper sections. Although several groups were in our vicinity, they did a great job of keeping a gap for person-less views and photographs. We then flew over Lake Powell and the Rainbow Bridge on the way to Monument Valley. The simple Navajo tacos and Goulding's were simple though extremely tasty. The jeep/truck tour at MV was informative and breathtaking. On the way home, many in the group slept after a truly luscious experience. It was worth every penny.

This is an experience of a lifetime. In fact, this flight tour was a 55th birthday present from my sister. Because I once translated the introduction of famous tourist attractions in Arizona into beautiful Chinese for Westwind Airlines, my sister specially arranged this flight for me, allowing me to truly experience the magnificent beauty of Arizona that I once translated. Exciting birthday！It also made me deeply understand every detail of Westwind Air's service, which is an unparalleled wonderful feeling. I was pleasantly surprised to get an unplanned field trip to the Glen Canyon and Dam. In Antelope Canyon, the local Navajo guide helped me take pictures throughout. In the afternoon, taste the unique Navajo cuisine at a panoramic restaurant overlooking Monument Valley... This is an unforgettable trip．Air travel with Westwind is indeed an excellent option for a short trip to Arizona. Dong Chen

Our trip was great; easy booking, clear follow-up and professional check in. Our pilot was Carla who was clearly experienced and fun to interact with! Stopped to pick up passengers in Flagstaff and we’re on to the south rim, with a “welcome to the Grand Canyon “ over the headphones. Informative narrative over the headphones about scenic views and history of the region. Land tour in the Hummer was also good, on time and nice stops for pictures. So glad we got to experience the Grand Canyon!

Seeing the Sedona red rock buttes and then the Grand Canyon from the air is amazing. We had a great trip— Daniel, our pilot, was great. The tour on the ground at the southern rim of the Grand Canyon was really insightful as we had the pleasure of being guided by Jeffrey, a Navajo Native American, who took the time to share with us about his culture and traditions in relation to the Grand Canyon and the other Nations that call the Grand Canyon home.

Phenomenal experience, from booking with ease with Lindsey to a breathtaking, unbelievable experience with Carla, I was blown away by all of it. Lindsey is awesome at what she does, great communication and incredibly welcoming when we finally got on site. Then we met Carla for our ANT tour, immediately felt confident with her as our pilot and guide, she was with us the entire tour which I never expected and was fun, knowledgeable, and clearly very skilled and experienced as a pilot. The sites were just jaw dropping, you forget what you are seeing is not man made, it’s almost fake, then you remember it’s not and have this incredible feeling of appreciation and admiration for what you’ve just seen and experienced. I am so very glad we chose Westwind, I thought this would be a once and a lifetime experience, but they were so awesome I can’t wait to get back and do another tour!!

Such an amazing tour! Insane views that you would never get from the ground. I used them as a charter to where I was going skydiving and ended up having a bit of a wait time. They really looked after me and I even let me ride at the front of the plane to make up for it. Great service and 100% recommend the tour and choosing this company :)

One of the best trips ever. It included flight over the Grand Canyon, helicopter to the Colorado river in the canyon and a boat ride on the river. John was our pilot and was personable , professional and knowledgeable. I highly recommend Westwind air and their tours. You won’t be disappointed and I wish I were in Phoenix longer to take another tour with them

I hired Westwind Air Services to scatter my mom’s ashes over Four Peaks. Lindsay was an absolute pleasure to work and talk with. I was able to fly along with two of the most amazing pilots, Lindsay and Carla. The flight was smooth and the view was spectacular! Lindsay made a couple of passes for me to be sure of where I wanted to scatter the ashes. I couldn’t have asked for anyone better in my quest to lay my mom to rest! Thank you, Lindsay, Carly and Lindsay!

Hi helen b, how long were you actually on the Grand Canyon? Was it just a few minutes or at least a couple of hours? Thanks, Ellie
Written March 7, 2016
Hi Helen, It depends on the tour but as a general rule most of our tour options spend about 3 hours on the ground. The Signature Tour goes to a couple of different overlooks and the Grand Canyon Historic Village and includes lunch. The Adventure Tour has the helicopter to the bottom, boat ride on the river, Eagle Point and Guano Point, also about 3 hours. Other tours may differ but you have a perfect amount of time to see everything and yet still be back by mid afternoon. Gayle
