Tour Cancelled on me the night before

Yvonne_A, Apr 2026

I was called by the tour operator on the Friday night before and told me the tour is cancelled due to ”helicopter maintenance”. I was told I have to call Viator to get my refund of $618!! I’m going to try to call them and see how that goes.

Worthy every penny

Julian_A, Sept 2025

Amazing trip - with the Butte landing being the highlight; no rush, friendly and expert pilot and overall a great way to spend an hour!

Great experience to remember

Great pilot, the friendly staff offered us a rebooking for a better time slot because of the hot weather.

Butte-iful Way to Spend Your Western Vacation!

Mike_S, Apr 2025

Elevate your family vacation. See something Butte-iful. Wonderful way to see the water! Only hero Dads need apply. You take off from a friendly little western airport. Loop around Horseshoe Bend, hit the Butte over the water. (You literally wear a fanny pack flotation device). The Butte is wide and not nearly as flat as we thought it might be. Only bummer was that I couldn't bring my emotional support football !?!?

Beautiful day for flying

Candice_J, Nov 2024

Our pilot Jared, was friendly and highlighted the different areas that we flew over. I accidently booked the wrong date and Papillion was able to allow me to fly the day before which was perfect timing as I arrived in Page and took a chance that they would be able to accommodate me. Landing on Tower Butte gave a gorgeous outlook over the scenery and the area. I also enjoyed flying over Lower Antelope Canyon and seeing the area from the sky.

Once in a lifetime experience

Blanca_W, Oct 2024

I don't have words to express how amazing this was. I was a bit nervous but the pilot was very friendly and explained the whole process. If you are thinking about it, just do it.

You won’t be disappointed

Chikara_H, Sept 2024

The entire flight over the East Rim, Colorado River, Horseshoe Bend and landing on Tower Butte! Views are wonderful. Pilot was very nice and helpful.

Well worth it

Sharon_M, Sept 2023

We had a great time. The view from the air and the butte was awesome. Our pilot Justin did a great job and was very knowledgeable. Well worth the time and money.
