our Helicopter pilot BJ was funny, witty and entertaining. Our bus tour driver was also amazingly knowledgeable and nice to be around. Paying for the helicopter over the Grand Canyon was absolutely the best excursion money we have ever spent, worth every dime. I can't imagine really seeing the GC any other way. It was a beautiful amazing day for us!
Great day! Just one glitch and caution for Celiacs I needed GF lunch, and made sure booking agent knew that fact. I was assured that there would be no problem accommodating my request. Got to tour, attempted to order lunch, and was coldly told by restaurant rep I'm not sure what you mean by the fact that you can't be exposed to cross-contamination, but we have never had a problem. He offered no solutions and did not accept my suggestion of possibly providing food from another outside source, so I had to find my own lunch in Sedona. Our tour guide investigated and quickly reimbursed us for the snafu.
Stops were too short. Suggest eliminating one stop to enable more time at another.
This was an amazing tour. Pickup at my hotel was right on time and the journey begins. The scenery from desert to mountains to the Grand Canyon was breathtaking. I'm so glad I decided on the helicopter tour also. The view over the Canyon was why this trip was on my bucket list. Be aware of those on the helicopter ride that this prevents you from touring the El Tovar hotel and viewing from their. I would forgo the Trading post for touring at the Canyon.
