Part one of tour operated by Five Star Helicopter Tours. A name change to one star would be our recommendation. They picked us up at hotel on time but then we waited 30 min for helicopter. Photo shoot - our faces were all in a shadow so of course we did not purchase same. Helicopter very tight fitting with Six passengers - really only comfort room for five we were not big. West canyon is not the best view - I suggest a bus tour to the south/north rim. Tour cut short by 15 min at canyon, plenty of time as the facilities at that rim are very basic.
Colorado rafting trip run by Black Canyon was superb. Take a huge hat and wear lots sunscreen. It was a long very hot day. Our tour guide Brian was wonderful.
To end the tour, it was Back to Five star terminal and 45 Minute wait to get taken back to hotel. Staff communication and care factor was 0/10. Our pilot was ok. To add to the disappointment we paid 135.00 AU extra as a so called fuel charge. USA citizens did not pay it. Fare comparison was the same. I suggest Viator that you find another helicopter company.
This was the most awesome experience. We booked the helicopter tour of the Grand Canyon and the River Raft down the Colorado. Alex was our pilot for the helicopter tour and he was awesome. Very informative. Even showed us Janet's Peak �. Jeff was our capitan for the Colorado River Tour and again very informative. We did not get to tour the Hoover Dam but I feel with all the info that Jeff gave and the view from the raft of the Dam that it was good enough. Hotel to airport/airport to hotel service was nice considering we did not rent a car. I highly recommend these tours to anyone thinking about doing it. Money well spent. Alex and Jeff thank you!!!!
Very Good Combo Tour. Very informative. Must do adventure. Jody was an awesome guide.
