Spectacular! This tour definitely exceeded my expectations......it was very well done and couldn't have been any better. It was very organized and the guides were local, and extremely knowledgeable. Simply breathtaking and worth every penny! We hiked so much in Sedona that this was a great way to sit back, relax and enjoy the ride.

Brilliant, great team, lovely pilots, amazing skipper. I'd never been to the GC before, when we went over the edge, I shed a tear of joy and awe. The whole family were blown away.

Such an amazing experience! The guides were great and the guide that drove the boat took extra time for our pictures and videos

What an amazing experience! The helicopter ride was only a 7 min long but the view of the Grand Canyon was spectacular. we landed at the bottom of the canyon, took some stairs to take the boat tour on the Colorado river which was great! We had about twenty mins on the water and returned back. Highly recommend the tour.

Flew in dropped us at the boat. Boat went less than a mile then flew us back out.never got a meal. Didn't feel like much of a "tour" and was in the helicopter between 5 and 10 minutes total. For the money I would pass.

This was the absolute worst experience. After renting a car and driving for 4 1/2 hours, I got there in time for my 2:20pm helicopter and boat ride. They put me in a bus with the wrong tour, only to get sent back to the terminal to find out they cancelled my trip. They said if I was on time (which I was), that was the last boat ride because of the heat. They offered a 12 min helicopter rude, but at a extremely high price where the time didn’t add up to the price. They gave me a refund and didn’t even offer to give me a band to just stand at the rim to view the canyon. They wanted to charge me $50! I was so upset. I ended up driving back 4 1/2 hours without seeing the Grand Canyon. Terrible customer service and a total waste of time and money.

Very impressive experience. The helicopter and boat tour are the best way to get the full greatness of the Canyon. Heavily recommended,
