This tour was spectacular. This is definitely a must do if you come to Las Vegas. Our pilot was great, and the views were breathtaking. When we landed at the West rim, it was as if we had been transported to another land. The night time views of Las Vegas were a great way to end the tour.

WOW! If you only have one day in Las Vegas, this is the only way to see the Grand Canyon. My first time in a helicopter and the guys were outstanding,complete with informative commentary from our pilot, but the views stole the show by far! We toasted sunset with a champagne picnic as the rocks around us turned bright orange - so serene. On the way home we got a birds eye view of the strip adorned in lights. The whole experience was money well spent and one we can't stop raving about. Thank you for the memories!

Fantastic views of the Grand Canyon. We put down right inside the Canyon for the picnic, couldn't have asked for more. The pilot was excellent and the tour operators were very safety conscious. Best way of seeing Hoover Dam, which had huge traffic queues over it, which can't have been much fun. A trip that was well worth the money, we just want to go again!

This was an amazing experience. Everything went according to plan - we were picked up by limo at our hotel, sharing with 3 other couples, at around 5pm, taken through safety video. Amazing trip with friendly, well-informed guide, fantastic views of Hoover Dam, landed on a bluff on the West Rim with amazing views. Tasty picnic. Time to take photos as sun was going down, a little chilly in the canyon - take a light jacket. Very smooth flight. Even if you are a nervous flyer, go for it. Worth every cent!

This was an amazing experience that I will remember forever. Everything was well organised and the helicopter pilot was very informative and made us feel relaxed.

Our Grand Canyon Sunset experience was the highlight of our trip to Las Vegas! Our limo pick up & drop off was prompt and professional. Our experience with was excellent. The trip was again very professional but also a lot of fun. Our pilot was outstanding and made the trip even better than anticipated! He allowed us extra time in the canyon and shared many interesting facts on the area, pointing out wild horses and buffalo during the flight. Highly recommended!

A wonderful experience if you have never been in a helicopter this is a brilliant introduction, and combined with the awesome majesty of the Grand Canyon this was a very satisfying trip and completely worth the cost. Thank you so much.

I took my husband on a surprise trip for his birthday and I could only fit in the Sunset Tour. But I think it was the best of all because after a limo ride you go and see the Grand Canyon during the day and come back at night and see the strip lit up. It was just so fantastic! Coming from South Africa, It was costly but my husband can't stop telling everyone how much I spoilt him and how he enjoyed it!

Starting with the only negative point, the pick up was 30 minutes late. Apart from that, fantastic. Helicopter of a good standard, staff brilliant and trip fantastic. Worth the money and the well worth the late pick-up too! A must if you're that way.

What can I say, if you're debating about this, all I can say is GO FOR IT. It was ABSOLUTELY amazing. Myself and my wife went on both this and the 4-in-1 trip and although both brilliant, this was by far our favourite. You fly to the Grand Canyon and land inside it. You then have a champagne, NOT sparkling wine, picnic and then get back into the helicopter flying back to Vegas as the sun is setting simply amazing sight. Finally, when you get back to Las Vegas, the sun has set so you fly over the strip at night which again is an amazing sight to see and saves on the cost of the night-time helicopter journey. All I can say is that anyone and everyone should go on this trip.

The trip although a bit pricey was brilliant. There were 6 to our helicopter but everybody had a good view. The pickup was on time and we only had a wait of approx 20 minutes in the offices. The pilot was friendly and knowledgeable and interrupted the recorded guide with stories during the trip. The flight back over Vegas lit up at night is a nice ending to the trip.

This was a once in a lifetime experience that I would recommend to all. Our pilot was very accommodating, funny, and informative. The only downside was the weather. It just happened to be one of the few overcast days that they only get about three times per year. But it was still a thrill!
