First time we ever flew in a helicopter. Our pilot (Chris) was absolutely wonderful. He was knowledgeable and made the tour fun!!
We had a fantastic time , great experience , our pilot Wesley was amazing and full of information . Would definitely recommend booking Papillon for the helicopter trip . Informative safety briefing. Spectacular views of the Grand canyon . We had the champagne picnic on the Canyon and would definitely return .
Excellent ride and awesome pilot with breathtaking views Experience with Viator is really amazing and had great fun
Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Vineet! We're thrilled to hear you had an excellent time on the Grand Canyon Helicopter Landing Tour and enjoyed the breathtaking views with our awesome pilot.
Unforgettable Experience! Our Pilot Guide Matt was friendly and knowledgeable, and flying into then landing (!) in Grand Canyon is Beyond Compare! So Beautiful! We did the evening trip which made the return into Las Vegas extra sparkly! ~ Caution: If you arrange hotel pickup be sure to drink any beverage before the bus arrives… I’d just bought a much needed and expensive Starbucks Energy Drink… Had to slam it as our driver was unpleasant in sharing that I couldn’t take it on the short trip to flight area. Silly. Also if anyone has a cold or congestion bring gum along. My boyfriends ears got all stopped up with the elevation changes ~
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re glad Matt helped make the flight so enjoyable and that the canyon landing was such a highlight. The evening departure also gives guests a great view of Las Vegas on the return. We appreciate your feedback as well.
Amazing experience You are better off meeting at the airport
Thank you for your five-star review.
It was an amazing experience! The pick up and drop off made it effortless. Would definitely recommend
We appreciate your kind words, Bobbie.
A very nice experience. Absolutely recommendable. The pilot and the ground staff were super friendly.
Wir schätzen Ihr positives Feedback sehr! Es ist großartig zu wissen, dass Sie unseren Piloten und das Bodenpersonal als freundlich empfunden haben. Vielen Dank, dass Sie uns empfohlen haben!
Disappointing. The round trip flight with the stop for photos with champagne and snacks (without toast) lasted 2 hours. On the other hand, after the fortune we spent, they offered two of the family to go in front for €120. Even though we agreed to pay, how strange that the other couple (Americans) got to go in front. We also paid to fly over the Las Vegas strip at "night." Well, not either. The best part was the pilot and the Grand Canyon, spectacular. What a shame this bittersweet taste. The information about this package does not match reality.
Gracias por compartir sus comentarios. Nos complace saber que disfrutó del espectacular Gran Cañón y que valoró a su piloto, aunque lamentamos que otros aspectos de su experiencia no hayan cumplido con sus expectativas. Por motivos de seguridad en cada vuelo, la asignación de asientos se determina en función de varios factores operativos, incluidos los requisitos de peso y balance de la aeronave, por lo que no siempre pueden asignarse según solicitudes específicas o el orden de preferencia.

Jimmy was an awesome guide. Perfect gentleman and lots of fun! Made the experience that much better!!
Rafael was a great and safe pilot, we had a lot of fun! The picknick is really small and it‘s more like a snack. Just fiy.
