This was the first time my friend and I have done a helicopter tour and it was amazing!! Our pilot, Jimmy, was fun, engaging and responsive to his passengers. He gave me the high level on how to fly a helicopter when I asked what everything does and then showed us IRL how each adjustment impacts the flight. Beyond that, he flew us through narrow spaces, around landscape features, and even circled back on something we didn't get good pictures of. Not sure if every pilot with Zion Helicopters is like Jimmy, but we would fly with him again any day!! Oh, and there is a chance to get pictures in front of the copter at the end too.

Was disappointed in the whole trip we just zig zagged through the hills close to the helipad I thought we would get closer to the park I guess my mistake for lack of research and asking questions I’ve been on many helicopter tours similar to this one like Grand Canyon and Mt Rushmore which gave you amazing sights that were unforgettable Wouldn’t recommend You get better views driving through the park. Save your money!!

Dear Sara and Jeremy, we regret that you did not enjoy your helicopter tour. The 55 mile Tour is our most popular flight and the majority of our guests report a fantastic experience. Your flight route included highlights such as the Kolob Canyons, Red Butte, looking into the West Side of the Zion National Park. The flight then took you along the south side of Zion National Park and the adjoining Cannan Mountain Wilderness area featuring 2000 foot sheer cliff faces and multiple colored rock formations of sandstone and natural stone arches. We have added a flight map to the images section on Viator's website so that readers of this review can see the extent of the tour and the distance traveled from the helicopter pad.
