We're delighted that you enjoyed your experience! The Grand Canyon truly is spectacular, and we're glad our helicopter tour could enhance your visit.
I really loved this experience. The ground crew were polite and helpful and Pilot Keith was enthusiastic and welcoming. He provided lots of interesting info about the Grand Canyon and its surroundings. The views were spectacular and beautiful. You should definitely add seeing the Canyon from above in a helicopter to your bucket list. Also, the headphones transmitted an informative narrative while we were flying.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that you had a memorable experience with Pilot Keith and our ground crew during the Grand Kingdom Helicopter Tour.
Outstanding! We started our Grand Canyon vacation with this tour. It is a fantastic way to get an overview of the scope of the canyon and surrounding areas. The flight is accompanied by orchestrated music that adds to the drama of the experience. Our pilot, Kevin, answered everyone's questions before and during the flight. He is professional, knowledgeable, and makes the trip fun. Views are simply breathtaking!
This was an awesome experience. Took the 45 minute tour and couldn’t have been more impressed. The staff and pilot were all friendly and helpful. The views were amazing. I would recommend this trip to anyone interested in seeing the Grand Canyon from above.
This was by far the coolest thing I’ve ever done and I’ve done some pretty cool things. The views of the Grand Canyon took my breath away! Torie, our pilot, was 100% amazing and she gave us an incredible experience despite the exceptionally windy day. Her playlist was right on and her control of the helicopter was perfect! I wish everyone could have the opportunity to do this at least once.
Heather our helicopter pilot had the best playlist to go along with our experience. The flight was picture perfect and we captured some amazing photos. This was definitely the way to see the Grand Canyon!
