Absolutely wonderful!! Our pilot Dan was knowledgeable of the area and shared so many fascinating facts, as well providing a smooth enjoyable flight. We felt safe, his expertise is evident. We come to Moab often, and this was hands down our favorite experience.

Amazing way to end our trip around Moab seeing Arches National Park from above. Derek was a great pilot showing all the parks attractions.

Our pilot, Craig, was great. We enjoyed the whole experience and we would do it again. If you have the opportunity to take this air tour it is worth the time. The cost was reasonable and the sights as seen from the air of the arches and canyons and their many features was amazing.

Once in a Lifetime Experience

Kate_R, Feb 2021

I booked this experience as a surprise for my boyfriend on Valentine’s Day. We were both first-time Moab visitors, and neither of us have ever done an air tour before. When they advertise that you see 3+ days of scenery in 30 minutes, they aren’t kidding! I booked it at 7am hoping to catch the sunrise, & the pilot waited until the perfect time to take off. He told us it had been a while since he last guided an air tour, so he ended up flying over Arches AND Canyonlands, giving us even more than what we paid for. He told us a lot of interesting history & geology behind the beautiful things we were seeing, and recommended plenty of things to do during our trip. We had the time of our lives, & our heads were on a swivel! I highly recommend booking this tour for your next vacation to Moab!

Response from Host, Feb 2021

We are so happy we were able to provide you with a one-of-a-kind experience! Our pilots pay meticulous attention to these types of details - we want nothing but the best for our customers! We hope you two had a wonderful rest of your Valentine's Day!

This was a wonderful experience...

jerri_hixson, Sep 2017

This was a wonderful experience - flying over Arches National Park. It turned out the flightseeing trip was just pilot Andy, my husband, and myself. Andy pointed out all the sights many were sights we were preparing to hike to in the next few days. It was my husband's favorite part of our 1 week tour of southern Utah. The skies were calm, the flight was smooth ---- and it was a perfect landing as well.

It was a fabulous experience for us...

Rudolf B, Oct 2016
