Grand Canyon Helicopter 45-Minute Flight with Optional Hummer Tour

Thomas_A, Jun 2026

Breathtaking way to see the Grand Canyon

Outstanding! We started our Grand Canyon vacation with this tour. It is a fantastic way to get an overview of the scope of the canyon and surrounding areas. The flight is accompanied by orchestrated music that adds to the drama of the experience. Our pilot, Kevin, answered everyone's questions before and during the flight. He is professional, knowledgeable, and makes the trip fun. Views are simply breathtaking!

Sheila was a great guide. The tour was fantastic. She took us to several key places and we were able to avoid the crowds. Sheila was very knowledgeable about the Grand Canyon and the National Park service in general. Fantastic blend of history, science snd scenery. Perfect for our large family.

Great tour

Excellent tour, William was knowledgeable and very open to questions. Our only concern was that he started the tour by asking us to not discuss politics and religion (good idea). We quickly found out that did not pertain to him. Before we entered the park entrance he mentioned that higher gas prices were affecting park attendance. He also said that the new international entrance fee ($250) was because somebody is greedy. He also mentioned several times about there were numerous flooding that had occurred over time and not just "once" as some religions believe. Last but not least he mentioned that officially the park took 5 years to become a national park because back then the government "listened" to the people more. Regardless of the political and religious views of William I would still recommend the company and him, just be prepared for his personal opinions.

Good tour with lots of scenic views.

This tour gives you a very good overview of the Grand Canyon in a short amount of time. Our guide was enthusiastic and we learned a lot about the canyon and the Navajo culture on our trip. I would recommend it unless you're actually hiking into the canyon or taking the mule rides.

Sunset Tour

What a perfect way to see the Grand Canyon with two little ones (7 and 9). Away from the heat with cool weather. Best choice. Our tour guide Werner was super informative and engaging. It did get chilly later into the evening and the service comes with blankets. My boys, husband and I loved seeing the canyon with this tour. I’d highly recommend.

Unforgettable First Grand Canyon Experience Thanks to Duncan!

Our helicopter tour over the Grand Canyon was absolutely unforgettable, and Duncan made the entire experience incredible from start to finish. As first-time visitors to the Grand Canyon, we were already excited, but Duncan took it to another level with his professionalism, knowledge, and calm, confident flying. He made us feel completely safe while also making the ride fun, informative, and breathtaking. The views were beyond anything we could have imagined, and Duncan pointed out amazing landmarks and shared interesting facts throughout the tour, which made the experience even more special. His smooth takeoffs, landings, and maneuvering allowed us to truly relax and soak in every second of the stunning scenery. You can tell Duncan genuinely loves what he does, and his enthusiasm made our first trip to the Grand Canyon one we will never forget. If you’re lucky enough to have Duncan as your pilot, you are in for an amazing experience. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful tour...

We had a wonderful tour that started at 9:30 this morning and we didn't get back to our hotel until about 3:00. Our guide was Linda and she did a great job what we really appreciated was being able to see so many sites at the canyon that we would not have been able to see without her expertise! We think her for a wonderful experience.

Unforgettable experience!

Working with Rosaria was absolutely wonderful—she has such a warm personality and made the entire shoot so much fun! She respected the poses and vision I had in mind, while also offering great suggestions whenever I needed guidance. Thanks to her experience, she knew all the best spots and positioning, and gave clear, thoughtful direction throughout the session. She was also constantly encouraging and positive, which helped me relax and feel confident in front of the camera. I highly recommend her to anyone reading this review. I booked a one-hour session, but if you have the flexibility, I’d suggest a longer one so you can try a variety of ideas. I’m so grateful I chose her to capture such a once-in-a-lifetime moment—my wedding photos. Thank you so much! Rosariaは人柄も素敵で、とても楽しい撮影でした！私がやりたいポーズやイメージを尊重しつつ、困ったら提案もしてくれました！慣れている彼女だからこそ知っているスポットや立ち位置を細かく教えてくれます。また、常にポジティブな声かけをしてくれたので楽しく自信を持って撮影できました。このレビューを見た方へ強く彼女をおすすめします。私は1時間のコースにしましたが、余裕があれば多く見た方が色々と試せると思います。ウェディングフォトという人生で一度の機会を彼女にお願いできて良かったです。ありがとうございました。

Great experience!

Super fun 40 minute ride over the canyon! Great views and it was a recorded narration over the canyon. The only drawback is that the plane holds many people and they assign seating, meaning a window seat is not guaranteed. However, you will still be able to see well even in one towards the middle. Would do again. Office was welcoming and had a gift shop. Plenty of parking.
