My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed this trip. I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending this trip to like minded people who do not have the luxury of time. You can return to Phoenix by afternoon. Meanwhile one can enjoy a ride on the Cessna, Chopper and boat on river Colorado and of course the Skywalk. Highly recommended.

From the first moment to the last, this adventure tour was the best I 've ever done and I 've done many. One exciting event after another. Plenty and timely bathroom breaks. Pilot was also our tour guide for much of the entire day and he was friendly, knowledgable, skilled, helpful, intelligent, and pretty good to look at as well. Although the south rim/Grand Canyon State Park was closed because of the government shutdown, the west rim where we were was not impacted as we were 80 miles from there. Snacks, lunch, and water was offered to us regularly - we were wanting for nothing. The Skywalk was smaller than it looked from pix we'd seen and was not as scary as my sister and I were sure it would be. It was more awe-inspiring and strange to be walking 4000 feet above the Grand Canyon floor while looking through the clear surface we were walking on. You are required to keep everything except your clothing and shoes to walk onto the Skywalk with the booty covers you are required to wear. We arrived fairly early in the day on our Friday tour of the Skyway so there weren't large crowds or even a line to wait in. Later in the day we noticed there were a greater number of people. The barbecue lunch we were served cafeteria style was run very efficiently so there wasn't a wait for that either. Food was delicious to us - we had worked up a hunger from all the walking. The walk from the helicopter down to the pontoon on the Colorado River was steep and the final ramp down was somewhat slippery. The hike back up the slippery ramp on our way back up to the helicopter was tricky - the remaining steep rocky rest of the treck back up was exhausting and I use a treadmill most days. You need to be in decent shape to make it back up to the helicopter. My legs were like jelly by the last step up but I made it. Views were great from the plane, helicopter, and walking trails. Was cool in the morning in mid -October when we went then was warm enough to shed light jackets later. FUN

Great Pilot but main issue was you messing up our booking causing us to have to make several changes to our itinerary which also caused us to see the Grand Canyon on a cloudy day instead of when we originally booked.
