You should know that...

You should know that although the flight is amazing, it is over the west side of the canyon, not the most famous or deepest/largest part of the canyon that is in the National Park. And the helicopters are somewhat cramped and not everyone has the best view if they are in the middle seats.

Jaw Dropping Adventure

We were in awe of the majestic scenery from the helicopter of the Grand Canyon , a once in a lifetime vision that can be seen closely in this wonderful transport . The Kayak tour to Black Canyon was an active and fun addition to our ride; we were on kayaks for 3 + hours , and we stopped a few times for snacks and took beautiful scenic photos. We loved our guide , Jamaica ! The reservation people at 5 Star Helicopter were on top of changes , communicated well and made sure several times by email , phone call and text that you’re kept up to date and informed . Everything was very well coordinated and organized . I have no complaints ! Each of us had a mini lunch insulated bag filled with a sandwich of our choice, drink , and snacks ; Foods had Einstein bagels wrappings. Delicious ! It was a nice change from casinos, clubs , concerts, and shows when in Vegas . I’m so happy we finally ventured out of our norm and added new experiences .

Beauty, Awe, Professional

The helicopter ride with our pilot Sam was amazing! I can’t imagine appreciating the beauty of the Grand Canyon any other way. The Kayak tour was just as beautiful and Lauren did an outstanding job, she was organized, professional and we enjoyed her lessons. The water was incredible, it was about 50 degrees which was refreshing in the 90 degree heat. We couldn’t believe the clarity of the water and it was a wonderful experience. I highly recommend this tour.
