Thought the company we dealt with were superb, we really struggled to find the pickup point but the lady at reception was so helpful- even texting me pics of where i need to go.
On arrival we were quickly guided to the helicopter and off we went, no hanging around for no reason like some other tours we did.
The helicopter was surprisingly smooth, my partner was very worried about the journey as she isn't a good flyer but said she'd get in a helicopter again.
Touch warm in the helicopter on the way back, this was early too so i imagine the afternoon flights are incredibly hot! We had a 6:45 take off and was back around 9:00-9:30.
Only disappointing thing for me is that we only had 30 mins inside the canyon, would have liked more time- i get why they don't like to give you more time as people will wander off but some guys on the tour, had some snacks some champagne and it was time to take off again- they barely got to see anything- their fault yes but time got away from them.
Would've been cool to see some more of the canyon from above the ground too from the helicopter.
They took us pas the Hoover dam, down the strip so saw plenty of Las Vegas.

We are glad that your experience was great overall. It is definitely easy to lose track of time while landing at the bottom of the Grand Canyon. We always encourage our guests to partake in champagne and light refreshments, but also urge our guests to roam around and take lots of photos as well during that time. Thank you for your feedback and for flying with us.
Kind Regards,
A Maverick Team Member
