The Grand Canyon is a must see. We debated taking one of the tours that fly there from Vegas, but were deterred by the reviews telling of delays at airports. We were kept waiting 45 minutes from our pickup, but the tour from then was very good. A Hoover dam photo was a plus. The dirt road is a bit of a bore, but it emphasizes the desert nature of the area. The helicopter flight is just fantastic, and the views from the Colorado River are magnificent. The drama of standing just a few feet closer if you're game from this huge drop is mind blowing. The grandeur of the scenery is awe inspiring.

We cannot stop raving about how great our trip was. Our guide was excellent, knowledgeable, entertaining and funny. We were ushered ahead of people at every turn. The helicopter ride was well organized and thrilling. I recommend it to everyone I meet!

We were extremely satisfied with our day trip to The Grand Canyon. Our guide was not only knowledgeable but also made the journey such fun. We were in a small group of six and soon made friends so the journey both ways did not seem over long. We also went through very quickly at the heliport and at lunch. We had time to look around and never felt rushed. My only comment would be to anyone who had any difficulty with steps that there are quite steep ones leading down to the river and it is quite a climb back but I did not see any warning of this. Also the guide on the boat was very pleasant but quite difficult to understand. Other than this I would thoroughly recommend this trip to anyone.

Great trip, well organised but with a flexible enough itinerary to accommodate everyone in our small group. The lunch spot on the West Rim was in a beautiful location. Whilst the helicopter flight and boat trip are both quite short, they didn't feel too rushed and are definitely worth doing. It's a long day but the tour-guide was very knowledgeable and made the journey a great experience.

This was the trip of a lifetime. Our guide was very informative, the people who were picked up all gelled, but if ever you have the time and money for the biggest ride of your life the helicopter trip uptown is the one you do.

The tour company was excellent, and the tour certainly lived up to its billing. A particular word of thanks to our guide driver, whose cheerfulness and wisdom really made our day. The schedule is pretty tight and we did not have much time to enjoy lunch, but we have no other criticisms. We even enjoyed the Skywalk, but noted that the guide was careful not to oversell this optional, but apparently quite controversial, attraction.

Tour operator has been around the traps for a long time and knew the region very well. Fantastic service from pick up to drop off. Guide was excellent and good fun. When arriving at the West Rim for our helicopter trip it definitely helps to be with a tour as we were ushered right through and waited less than 20 minutes to get aboard. A fantastic day and a trip I would highly recommend to all. With a lot of these things it all comes down to the tour operators and I couldn't rate this highly enough.

EXCELLENT! We went off road through the Arizona desert; the guide was excellent, & we saw things that we would've missed by air. I cannot recommend this enough!
