2 THUMBS DOWN: I bought a family tour and got treated rudely and had my family split up to tour with strangers. BOO!

Disappointing. The view was amazing. They tour company was awful. Rude. I paid for 5 passenger tour on a 6 passenger helicopter only to have my family split up onto 2 different helicopters. Meanwhile, I witnessed 6 and 7 passengers getting off the same helicopters we couldn't. 3 adults and 2 small children. Weight was nowhere near the limit. Rude staff o formed us that we were being split up in the middle of the waiting room in front of everyone. We weren't given any option except which 2 was going to tour with strangers. Then they messed that up. Why ask ug you aren't going to do it? Paid for family event and was so upset I couldn't enjoy it. $2000 and didn't get what I paid for. It was the Rude staff that made it memorable. I won't forget.RUDE!

The views are breathtaking. Overall experience is good. It was a little delayed and ruined the next activity for me, so just keep in mind your flight time might not be your actual flight time.

Beyond expectations

Even though I have hiked several times into the Grand Canyon there is absolutely nothing like the view you get from this helicopter ride. Do it!
