I would highly recommend a helicopter trip for anyone visiting the Grand Canyon. Having visited the North Rim earlier in our holiday it was a really good way to see the rest of the Grand Canyon and compare the differences.

We had a fantastic trip with Matt, our pilot. With a group of people from all over the world, he made sure that everyone was included even if there was somewhat of a language barrier at times! He also made sure that everybody got to experience the front seats.

The trip was a little shorter than I anticipated as the online description said approx 7.5 hours but we were picked up at 7am and were back at our hotel by lunch time. It would have been nice to spent a little longer at the West Rim so that you could experience everything it offers rather than just two of the three sites there.

What an experience.

We got picked up at our hotel bang on time and taken to the base. We checked and and waited for our pilots. The terminal area is very comfortable and you can buy light snacks.

Out pilot I think his name was Fernandez who was Mexican was excellent. Really nice guy with lots of experience of flying helicopters. Made me feel very safe knowing his background.

The helicopters are pretty cool and an excellent experience.

The stop in the grand canton was excellent and the views were amazing.

We stopped for champs and small snack. You can also have soft drinks also.

We got to sit at the front on the way to the canyon so we swapped around so everyone got a good view.

We then stopped at the fuel landing spot so we swapped around again.

It was a great experience and would strongly advise on going on this trip.

Booked this tour through Adrenaline Tours due to being slightly cheaper and we’re pleasantly surprised at how great Maverick was. The whole experience was very smooth and the pilot was great, we even had music on! Would love for the tour to be slightly longer as loved the helicopter experience. Only criticism is the pick up service is more like a mini bus than a limo service.
