The helicopter ride with our pilot Sam was amazing! I can’t imagine appreciating the beauty of the Grand Canyon any other way. The Kayak tour was just as beautiful and Lauren did an outstanding job, she was organized, professional and we enjoyed her lessons. The water was incredible, it was about 50 degrees which was refreshing in the 90 degree heat. We couldn’t believe the clarity of the water and it was a wonderful experience. I highly recommend this tour.

The Grand Canyon was beautiful. The only complaint is that I wished we could have landed and seen the canyon from that point as well.

Excellent adventure

Both five star helicopters and the kayak organization were exceptionally kind, punctual, and considerate Both groups worked well with each other and with us

Fantastic Day Out

Hayley_W, Apr 2023
Amazing day from start to finish. Communication was clear, pick ups & drop offs were on time, there were no hidden costs. Jack was a great pilot with very good knowledge of the area & canyon, funny too! Celeste was a lovely kayak instructor, with clear guidance and a lot of patience for those of us not so in control of our kayaks! Would definitely recommend.

Excellent

I was skeptical about the tour and read some bad reviews but booked it anyway and I'm so glad I did. We had an amazing time. Breathtaking views. We were first time kayakers so a little worried but it turned out to be a perfect day for kayaking. I'd do it again!!
