Flight and views from the helicopter were amazing! Hummer tour is just the driving route through the park which you can do yourself, but what made it worth it was the guide. Ours was Trey and he was excellent! Knew how the formations were named, lives in the park and knows the local area. Trey made the whole experience much more enjoyable!

Great Experience
David_O, July 2023
The experience was amazing. The pilots and crew were very kind and knowledgeable. The sights were so beautiful. Thank You!
Would do it again
Edgar_P, July 2023
Great views. Little bit of turbulence from weather but adds to the experience and excitement. It would be awesome if they could fly into the canyon since they have TOP GUN music going in the back ground.

an unforgettable experience

I would recommend this helicopter experience to everyone who would like to experience the Grand Canyon in a special and holistic way.
As my first helicopter experience, it was not stressful at all. All the services and tutorials made me feel safe and comfortable. During the journey, the pilot would drive through the Grand Canyon and fly the helicopter down to give us a clear view of the details of the Canyon.
Besides, you would have a plenty of opportunity to take amazing photos both of yourself and the view.

Kathy_P, Apr 2023
It was an awesome tour and so beautiful. If you haven’t already done it you most definitely should do this. The guide was awesome and very knowledgeable
Very bad experience
Jonathan_G, Apr 2023
I did a google search: lasvegas helicopter tour and i found viator site that offered the grand canyon tour 25-30 min by helicopter. I didn't see the address where to go until paid. I looked on the site to see the adress 3568 airport in google map it referred me to the airport of Lasvegas where there is a helicopter compagny, i immediately though it was the right place. I went with my wife to the appointment the day of the excursion and there was nothing..
I am very disapointed to see that the address is the same in 2 different states that what is not indicated before reservation. I would like a refound for the inconenient situation i encountered with the lack of informtion on your site. I called viator and they told me that there is no refund possible because of the compagny policy. Is it possible to do something to help me with this bad situation.
