Bryce Canyon and Capitol Reef National Park Combo Airplane Tour

Overview

We explore two of Utah’s Mighty 5 National Parks on our newest scenic flight! Passengers will view the beautiful Bryce Canyon, the amazing scenery of Capitol Reef National Park, and the spectacular Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument.

The Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument is named for the series of plateaus that descend from Bryce Canyon south toward the Grand Canyon, marked by vertical drops at the Pink Cliffs, Grey Cliffs, White Cliffs, Vermillion Cliffs and Chocolate Cliffs. This area boasts a mixture of colorful sandstone cliffs soaring above narrow slot canyons; picturesque washes and seemingly endless slickrock; prehistoric village sites and abandoned old Western movie sets, among many other treasures.

What To Expect

Bryce Canyon National Park

Bryce Canyon is an incredible scenic spectacle. The park is a vast showcase of colorful rock pinnacles and spires, known as “hoodoos,” which rise from a series of natural amphitheaters stretching across the Paunsaugunt Plateau. The view of these hoodoos, which are seemingly every shape and size, is breathtaking for all visitors, no matter if it is their first or 100th time in the park. Many formations bear fanciful names according to what they supposedly look like, including “The Poodle,” “Queen Victoria,” and perhaps the park’s most notable hoodoo, “Thor’s Hammer.” These hoodoos, combined with incredible visibility and surrounding spruce, pine, and fir forests, make for a truly picturesque atmosphere.

Capitol Reef National Park

Capitol Reef National Park is a hidden treasure filled with cliffs, canyons, domes, and bridges in the Waterpocket Fold, a 65-million-year-old geologic monocline (a wrinkle on the earth) extending almost 100 miles long and six miles wide. To see it from the air is truly astounding!

We were visiting our son in Moab, and he gave us a Redtail tour as a gift. Chris was our pilot, and he was amazing. He was extremely knowledgeable. He knew so much about the geological formations, topography, and cultural history and shared so much information that made the adventure so much more than just a tour. Chris was an excellent pilot, and was professional while being personable. The ride was absolutely breathtaking--it was nothing short of one of the most incredible adventures we have ever been on. Impossible to describe the beauty from a bird's-eye view. We were given the Bryce Canyon/Capitol Reef and didn't want the ride to end. We will go back sometime to see more and will definitely book Redtail and Chris. Outstanding, humbling, and truly a once in a lifetime experience. Highly recommend Redtail and Chris--you won't be disappointed!

Wow, thank you for such a fantastic review Kathleen, we really appreciate it! I will be sure to pass on your kind words to our Pilot Chris, we are very lucky to have him as part of our team. We are so thankful that your son chose Redtail to be a part of your visit to Moab.

This is the best way to admire the dramatic and impressive scenery of southern Utah. We spent 12 days in the Four Corners region exploring all the main sites and this was an outstanding experience we will always cherish. The ability to see so many of these sites from the air that you can't access from the ground in just a few hours is amazing. Our pilot, Chris, was intelligent, informative, helpful, and thoughtful. He provided a custom tour, answered questions, and shared an incredible wealth of knowledge about the geography and things to do in the area. I booked this flight knowing I get air sick in low altitude small planes/helicopters after about 90 minutes. I had heard from other people that it would be phenomenal and it was worth the air sickness. Chris also stopped at a pilot lounge in Escalante so I could rest and recover. This flight normally has a stop in Bryce or Escalante. During my break, Chris was incredibly helpful as I regrouped. I took Dramamine and Ginger but accidentally left my Ondansetron (prescription nausea medication) at the hotel. Even though I get air sickness, I would highly recommend this tour and Redtail Air as a fantastic way to see some of the most memorable scenery in the world. My husband loved sitting next to the pilot and enjoyed asking numerous questions while admiring scenery you can't see anywhere else.
