Itinerary

  • Route 66 (Pass By)

    After departing the Phoenix metro area, our tour travels through the expansive Sonoran Desert filled with the native saguaro cactus. The scenery begins to change as we increase in elevation and views of the cactus fade into pine trees. As we continue further into Northern Arizona, we will travel the outskirts of the Route 66 town of Flagstaff and from the highway, see the San Francisco Peaks among the seemingly endless Ponderosa Pine Forest, the largest contiguous forest of ponderosa pines in the world.

  • Grand Canyon National Park

    Just before entering the Grand Canyon National Park, you will be checked in for your 45 minute helicopter flight, spanning over 90 miles of the Grand Canyon. After your flight, your guide will bring you back into the National Park to discover more by foot. You will have opportunities to walk the rim, shop, capture an unlimited number of photographs, or relax with the best seat in the house. Your total time at Grand Canyon including the helicopter and walking is approximately 3 hours, with approximately 1-1.5 hours on the rim walking. Sometimes your helicopter flight happens after your time on foot at the rim.

highly recommend it!

Published on Jan, 2025

We took the Grand Canyon Helicopter with Sedona Tour from Phoenix, and the service was excellent. There was always someone available to answer questions, and our driver and tour guide, Mr. Mark, was very knowledgeable and a great person. He provided wonderful explanations throughout the trip, and everything was perfectly on time. Visiting the Grand Canyon was on in our bucket list, and I have no regrets about choosing this tour with this company. I highly recommend it!

WORTH THE MONEY

This was SOOO FUN. It was pricey but honestly probably won’t remember how much it cost me in a few months but will definitely remember the experience!!

Great trip

Published on Jan, 2025

I don’t usually do solo tours but I really wanted to see the Grand Canyon. The trip was amazing. Our guide handled everything and went out of his way to make sure everyone was having a great time.

Awesome trip.

Published on Jan, 2025

Trip up and back was very relaxing and comfortable. The helicopter flight was beyond expectations, loved it.

Great experience with John

Published on Dec, 2024

We really appreciated the professionalism and kindness of our guide John. The Lincoln Navigator was spacious and clean. We loved the effort into making sure our trip was prompt and enjoyable and hope to have him as a guide in the future! We checked out great views of the Grand Canyon on foot and by helicopter with Maverick and also checked out some sights in Sedona. All with a 5 year old boy!!
