My husband had such a hard time booking this tour because of the price. We did the Wind Dancer tour which was roughly $550 for each of us. But we decided if we came all the way to Vegas, we needed to see the Grand Canyon while we were there. But we didn’t want to waste a whole day driving so we were referred to Maverick, and we were not disappointed!
Right from their prompt pick up time, everything was so easy and professional. We were at the MGM so it only took us less than 5 minutes to get the Maverick hangar. The inside area is nice with snacks, souvenirs and charging stations for your electronics.
Our pilot was amazing. So friendly and knowledgeable and answered any questions with ease. And honestly, pretty cute! 😂
We were lucky enough to sit in the front of the helicopter for the first leg, which included take off, the Hoover Dam, Lake Mead and actually seeing the Grand Canyon for the first time.
We landed at the bottom for our champagne and snacks and photo ops. It was an awesome location and just a nice little break to stretch your legs. On the way back, we sat in the back which was still great, just not quite as easy to see as when sitting in the front.
When they say 4 hours from your hotel back to your hotel, they’re not kidding! It was an amazing experience and well worth the money!
