Adam did an amazing job with in-flight info. The Ranch was amazing and rustic. We had the best instructor at the shooting range and would definitely recommend it.

Helicopter ride to and from the Grand Canyon with an amazing pilot (Lucas) who kept the bird calm on an exceptionally windy day, narrated the tour with jokes, and kept all of us engaged. Horseback riding through a gorgeous desert trail on healthy, easy to ride horses. Guides, drivers, and staff throughout were exceptional.

What a fabulous experience. Flying in the helicopter over the grand canyon was amazing. The pilot was fabulous and very knowledgeable. The BBQ and horse riding was so good too. Thankyou to all of the staff
Nancye_F, Apr 2026
The helicopter ride was amazing but the ranch was dissappointing. Inless you want to horse bach ride or shoot, at an additional fee there is nothing to do. The lunch was cold. Should have samed the money and just did helicopter ride.

From the start of the day, being picked up and transferred to the office, check in, and then boarding with Andrew, or pilot for the day, this was an outstanding experience. We took in the Hoover dam and West Rim of the Canyon, before heading to the ranch. The couple of hours were great fun. We paid to do the fun range and loved every minute.
Fantastic service from everyone at the ranch and with 5 star helicopters.
Natalie_H, Mar 2026
Trip was fantastic, from the helicopter
Tour to the ranch everything was great and would highly recommend
Wayne_M, Mar 2026
There’s a reason this gets the rave reviews it does! Our pilot Christina was great, very knowledgeable and informative. The ranch was amazing having lunch, we hadn’t booked the horse riding or shooting. But when we got there booked onto the shooting, again, absolutely fantastic! Would highly recommend.
Bucket list stuff! It’s not cheap but it’s worth every penny.

Helicopter trips, look no further than 5 star. As far as I am aware none of the other Helicopter tour companies offer hotel pickup any longer so your in good hands right from the start rather than having to find your own way to the heliport. Once there everyone is very professional in getting you booked in and prepared to start your experience.
We booked the grand canyon, with cowboy ranch and horse riding tour and can honestly say our pilot Micheal (Mad Dog) Davies don't let the name deter anyone, went far and above our expectations in terms of keeping us informed of everything we could see on our journey to the cowboy ranch passing over Hoover dam and the grand canyon.
Arriving at the ranch we were treated to a BBQ lunch before heading off on a 1hr horesback ride. Me and my Wife cannot recommend this companies professionalism enough 10/10.
Christopher_F, Feb 2026
We had a wonderful experience with our pilot, Mad Dog, and our drivers, George and Joel. We opted for the horseback ride and lunch at the ranch. And we are very happy that we did. Best BBQ ribs that we’ve had.

Amazing experience! I live in the UK, so I was able to contact the Tour company directly via Whatsapp and arrange a pick up time in and place in Las Vegas. I opted for the Ranch Landing which included lunch and was also sent the menu. On the day, they collected me in their seated taxi van directly from the hotel. i was on my own, but everyone was friendly and I made a friend who was also travelling solo. On arrival at the airport, they weighed us and went through the safety procedure. There were 6 people to the helicopter and everyone was distributed by weight. There are individual seat belts and headphones with mics. The best view is obviously at the front, but i was positioned next to the window which was great. We flew from Las Vegas over the Hoover Damn then onto the West Rim of the Grand Canyon where the helicopter dipped and took us through the canyon. The pilot was friendly and knowledgeable explaining the history and geography of the region with added anecdotes! There was a choice of a Gun Range experience or a Horse Trail experience at an additional cost so I opted to stay at the ranch which I was free to explore. The host was a singing cowboy who had taken the time to compose songs which referenced each of us! The food was freshly cooked and delicious! Coffee, hot chocolate and water were free, but alcohol incurred an additional fee. We were then taken back by the same pilot in the same order in the helicopter via a slightly different route. It was just before sunset so we circled Vegas as the many lights of the attractions beneath lit up the city. We were then dropped off at our individual hotels. The trip was approx 5 hours door to door.
It was worth every penny and I'd definitely love to do it again!

Dahlia_H, Jan 2026
It is truly amazing to see Grand Canyon and surrounding area from a helicopter. The meal at the Grand Canyon Ranch was tasty, and my son really enjoyed his horseback ride there.
Tammy_I, Jan 2026
This was the perfect experience for me and my 17year old son. The company was very efficient and exceeded all expectations. The helicopter was an exciting experience and the staff was very professional. The tour description was exactly what they delivered.
Diana_G, Jan 2026
What an adventure! Fantastic!
5 Star is very well organized and has a friendly and knowledgeable team. Cristina, our pilot/guide offered us a smooth ride and an amazing experience.
The ranch team is also super hospitable and Arizona Casey was really entertaining!
You can't miss it!

We enjoyed the whole experience.
Our pilot was knowledgeable and plesant. The ranch was very rustic, the people there were plesant and we had a delicious lunch.
Eve_G, Oct 2025
Fantastic from start to finish. Good communication on pick up time & location. The pilot on our flight was friendly, knowledgeable & accommodating. What a way to view the Grand Canyon, lake mead & the hoover dam. Loved the ranch so peaceful and a great way to spend a couple of hours away from the bright lights of vegas. Flew back over Fremont street & the strip on the way home - perfect trip
Carrie_F, Oct 2025
A superb outing. Excellent service, wonderful views, experienced pilot and wonderful stop at the ranch. You would be crazy not to take the opportunity to go on this trip.
David_B, Oct 2025
There was no lunch provided as advertised in the tickets and web site. When at the Grand Canyon we had only 30 minutes to do the Skywalk which did not leave any time for pictures to be taken. Such a disappointment that we are not sure we will use Viator for any future adventures. The helicopter ride was very good however but when you advertise things to be included then you need to uphold your commitment.
Response from Host, Oct 2025
Thank you for your feedback. The tour you booked was a Grand Canyon Skywalk Express Helicopter Tour, which includes Front-of-line-VIP access to the Grand Canyon Skywalk. We strongly recommend that your read Viators important information, which provides clear information on what is included and excluded. The tour you booked does not include lunch. The Grand Canyon Helicopter and Western Ranch Adventure landing tour, which you did not select does include a lunch plus two full hours at the Historic Grand Canyon Western Ranch.
James_S, Oct 2025
Bring a jacket! Everyone was very professional and on time! Fun helicopter ride and the range was great!
craig_p, Oct 2025
Helicopter tour thru the Grand Canyon with Horses back ride with return flight over Las Vegas strip !
Sarah_M, Oct 2025
Amazing trip and service from start to finish. Best way to see the Grand Canyon, Lake Mead and the Hoover Dam. Our pilot was Sam, he was brilliant, provided us with lots of information as we travelled. Felt safe and in capable hands! The ranch was something unique to experience, we did the wagon ride to see the Buffalo and the hosts were also full of stories of the history of the ranch and we were treated to a tasty lunch (included) and some singing! Would highly recommend - worth every penny!
steffen_d, Sep 2025
What a fantastic time me and wife had for her birthday recommend all day long staff were great pilot was fantastic and you see some beautiful views.
Ned_W, Sep 2025
The views were incredible! Flight was a little cramped in the helicopter but definitely well worth doing. Horseback riding was fun too! We rode to the top of the mountain and saw bison and a mule deer. Lunch was great, too!
