It was FANTASTIC! The pilot did a great job in explaining all we saw up there.

I was amazed at how relaxed it was to fly in a helicopter. Generally speaking, I am terrified of flying, more to the sense of claustrophobia I usually inexperience than from a fear of heights. I had convinced myself that the helicopter flight would encompass all my fears of flying and was pleasantly surprised to find I was totally relaxed and thoroughly amazed at the ease of the flight and the marvelous vistas which presented themselves. I would not hesitate to take further flights when the opportunity presents itself.

The trip was magnificent! The only way to see the Grand Canyon. Our pilot was great, and added so many interesting details as we were flying over points of interest. I would highly recommend this experience to everyone.

Loved everything about the flight. The pilot was great. The only problem was the cramped conditions in the back of the craft throughout the journey. Otherwise a fantastic and highly recommended experience.

A little expensive but definitely worth the money. Take your own camera, don't bother buying the DVD.

Our pilot was great, the flight was great and the scenery spectacular. The video was a waste however. Would recommend everything else.

The helicopter flight was fantastic, the views were absolutely stunning, and I would highly recommend it. The only downside was the DVD we purchased. We thought it would be of the flight we took, as we were told it would be, so we didn't bother taking any photographs ourselves. Unfortunately, there wasn't much of the flight on it at all; it seems to be more of an advert for the company, and so now we don't really have any photographic keepsakes of the flight. But don't let that put you off taking the flight - it really was a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

My family and I were impressed with the professionalism of the whole experience. And our pilot made the trip even more exciting and memorable.

All in all, the trip was well worth it. The view from the helicopter is just mesmorizing. Apart from the copter being very crammed with 6 passengers, the trip was an all-out success. Was a little disappointed when the return flight did not go back into the Grand Canyon Also, for others planning this trip, remember the copter does not go all the way down to the depths of the Colorado River, but floats inside the Grand Canyon, I'd say a good 100 yards in the depths.

The flight was beautiful, but the helicopter was so rocky we were all sick on the way back. Also when I booked the flight the lady said they had recordings in French and when we arrived they had no such tapes so my friend could not understand a word they were saying.

Great trip. Watch for fuel surcharges. Website advertisement stated that fuel surcharges were included in total price but was charged 12 in additional fuel surcharges.
Reviewed by: Stan C, United States, April 2008 Note from Viator: We are sorry for the misunderstanding. As stated in the exclusions section on our product detail page a temporary fuel surcharge of USD$12.00 per person is not included in our pricing.
