Everything was great. We were picked up on time, we had a very nice pilot and a fun helicopter and boat ride. We enjoyed decent food, terrific views, and even did the skywalk, which is not included in price. More importantly, the whole tour was all on time.

The tour was fantastic, better than I expected. The trip let us see some amazing views from the air, and it also let us have some free time to explore on foot. The bus picking us up from the hotel was a bit late, but the trip was well worth the wait. Fantastic!

This adventure was great. No issues with vouchers being honored. Reliable service from start to finish. We got to experience a great part of the world and all transport and guides were terrific. We got to see The Canyon from all angles. Very interesting.

The whole trip to the Grand Canyon was a life-long dream for me. Your tour exceeded my expectations. It was wonderful.

A superb day. Wonderful views of the Grand Canyon from ground and air. Kept moving throughout with no wasted time. The Indian BBQ tasty if a little basic. Thoroughly enjoyed by my children and myself, especially the helicopter ride and the upbeat riverboat guide.

It was a beautiful and amazing trip to discover the Grand Canyon by air and by boat on the Colorado River. Very nice trip; perfectly organised.

Was a great experience, but there just wasn't enough time at the Grand Canyon. Despite transferring straight to the helicopter on arrival at the canyon and straight to the boat when at the canyon base, we had less than 30 minutes at the top before flying back to Las Vegas. They definitely need to factor in at least another hour on this trip. Despite this, the views were fantastic and the staff and pilot were all very friendly. Hotel pickup was on time.

The trip itself is definitely worth it, the flight was a much better option than a bus and the scenery was incredible. The highlight for all of us was the helicopter trip down into the Grand Canyon. The boat ride was fairly short but the native guide was very informative. The lunch was tasty. We opted out of the skywalk part of the trip and were very glad we did. It allowed for more time at Guano Point for lunch and others we met that went on the glass floor didn't find it that great because you weren't allowed to bring your camera but they'll sell you a photo for 30. The weak link on the tour was definitely the bus ride between our hotel and the Boulder City airport, it was much longer than we expected and on the return trip we had to wait at a gas station for 15 minutes so the bus driver could get a gas card from one of the other drivers. Not the smoothest run operation. Even with that it was still a good experience and a great day.

Absolutely wonderful views from the airplane, helicopter and pontoon boat. Our airplane pilot was just a class act. Unfortunately we had to wait for over an hour at the air strip at the Grand Canyon for the helicopter to take us into the canyon which led to a VERY rushed tour. We were unable to make the first stop on the bus tour, and had only a few minutes to eat at the second stop and had to rush back to the bus to be on time to catch the plane. The food was OK, but we were just disappointed we had no time at all to enjoy the views from this stop. This is certainly the best stop for picture ops. Had we started our tour within 15 minutes of arriving at the canyon. It would have been perfect, but the 1 hour wait just put us too far behind to really relax and enjoy the whole experience. All of our pilots, drivers and captains were very nice, professional people and the views from the plane, copter and boat were awesome.

Pick ups were seamless. The fixed wing pilot was particularly informative and friendly, although his aircraft had seen better days! The helicopter trips were also good. It would not be a loss, though, if the boat trip was omitted.

Good service and a once in a lifetime experience.

Beautiful views!!!!!! Most of the guides and pilots were great, except the woman guide at the bottom of Grand Canyon before you get on the pontoon boat, she wasn't too pleasant.

Although it was a great experience, there was no continuity between the different activities, and it all felt a little rushed as though you were going through the process.

Great day out, and hardly any delays at all - just a bit of sitting around at the airfield in Vegas. Didn't realise the flight to the Grand Canyon would be in a small Cessna rather than the plane in the photo, but that added to the fun. Helicopter ride was fun, boat trip good and the lunch entirely edible.
