Said the weather was bad when the sun was shining and helicopter rides were being conducted with no issues. First they delayed the flight, then made us wait an hour, and cancelled. The worse part is they refused to refund my money. So, I wasted $306 and most of my day. I only had 3 days planned so this sucked

There are many good viewing locations to see the Grand Canyon but to really appreciate the scale and majesty of this natural wonder of the world you need an aerial view. Check in was well organised and very professional. On the day in question the wind was about 15-20 mph and so I thought it might be a little bumpy. There were a few bumps but the pilot was excellent and flew smoothly all the time. Everyone on the aircraft was fine and had a great trip. The views were stunning and something not to be missed. Trip lasted about 45 minutes and I would highly recommend.

Thanks for such an amazing experience. We all enjoyed our flight immensely. The best way to see the canyon by far. The snow made the whole experience especially spectacular. Thanks to our pilot Jack who made our flight very comfortable. We would highly recommend this experience to everyone!
