This was an unforgettable experience! The helicopter ride was smooth and breathtaking from start to finish, and the views over the Grand Canyon were absolutely unreal. Our pilot was a total rocket – incredibly skilled, confident, and made the whole flight feel exciting and safe at the same time. He gave us great commentary, hit all the best angles for pictures, and kept the energy high throughout the tour. If you’re thinking about doing a helicopter tour, do it! This was one of the best experiences of my life. Highly recommend!

It was fantastic...everything from the little terminal to ground staff to Tori our pilot. Even the music in The helicopter made the experience so memorable. Flying into the canyon was so breathtaking... will be a best memory of this trip. Thank you SO much.

My experience with Papillon Helicopters was absolutely fantastic—I could not have hoped for anything better! From start to finish, the staff made everything smooth and enjoyable. The check-in process was easy, the team was professional and friendly, and safety was clearly a top priority.The helicopter ride itself was unforgettable. The views of the Grand Canyon from above were breathtaking—seeing the canyon walls, the river, and the vast expanse from that perspective was truly once-in-a-lifetime. I was pleasantly surprised when Corey, our pilot, started playing the main Star Wars theme just as we were ascending. That made it even better! Canyon. If you want an experience that combines adventure, beauty, and top-notch service, this is it!

We started our tour from Las Vegas with a truck picking us up at 6:30 am. The bus was really friendly, making stops for snacks and stretching our legs since it was a 4-hour drive. Those going on the helicopter got off first for a weight check, then we waited a bit before heading to the Maverick helicopter for the tour. Everyone was super friendly, and the pilot explained everything we needed to know before we boarded. Once in the air, we embarked on a stunning adventure over the Grand Canyon, taking in gorgeous views. It lasted about 45 minutes before we returned to the bus for lunch. We stopped at various viewpoints and shops for souvenirs-everything was well-organized. We got back to Vegas around 7 pm. Highly recommend this tour!

We chose Maverick based on recommendations and positive reviews, and we were not let down. We received an email reminder about our flight, enjoyed a smooth check-in, and experienced professional service throughout. Our pilot shared interesting commentary about various sights (it's the Grand Canyon, everything's stunning!) during the flight. I think 45 minutes is just right since you fly about 10 minutes over the pine forest, leaving you with around 25 minutes over the Canyon-any shorter would mean less time to be wowed! Our trip was at 10 am, so if you have a similar time, make sure to snap a lot of pictures on the way out; the return flight is into the sun, which can create reflections. Highly recommend it!

What an incredible experience! Words can’t quite capture the feeling of the helicopter taking off, flying for a few minutes, and then suddenly, the world drops away as you soar over the canyon rim into the canyon itself! The flight lasted about 45 minutes, but it flew by in an instant. The pilot narrated points of interest during the flight, but honestly, it didn’t register as I was simply in awe of the majestic scenery. Visiting the Grand Canyon and taking a helicopter flight was on my bucket list, so being able to do both together was amazing. If you have the chance to do this, don’t hesitate; it’s truly life-changing and worth every penny!

Soar over the Grand Canyon’s North and South Rims and take in their beauty and unique geological features. Ideal for a quick yet unforgettable adventure.

Experience aerial views of the canyon's rock formations and layered strata, and enjoy onboard commentary offered in multiple languages, sharing facts and tidbits on the views.

Enjoy unobstructed views of ancient formations like the Vishnu Schist and Dragon Corridor from your helicopter, perfect for capturing stunning photos.

Enhance your adventure by upgrading to a premium luxury helicopter tour, increasing your flight time to 45 mins, and adding an optional Hummer tour, offered in daytime or sunset slots.

Fun fact: The Grand Canyon was first seen from the air in 1929 by a pilot named John W. H. McLain, marking the beginning of aerial tourism in the area.

It was disappointing. We spent too much time over the forest. The canyon was spectacular for those that could see. Passengers in the middle at the back could barely view. The music in the headphones was too loud and we couldn't hear the pilot. All in all, definitely not value for money.
