The booking process was seamless, check in process was easy and the pilot was great. As we flew over various spots of the canyon we were explained in detail what each one of them was and the significance of them all. Highly recommend Maverick Helicopters to anyone looking for an experience of their lifetime.

Good evening ! Please remove a doubt from me: I booked for myself and my friend for a year from now, April 20, 2026....but I received two satisfaction surveys for April 20...2025. 5 days ago. Is there an error on your part? or mine within the date indicated during my purchase? And if so, is it possible to arrange this?... I hope I haven't wasted your time :( Thank you in advance, I remain available of course. Very good night to you!

The helicopter trip was absolutely amazing and the staff were fantastic. Our only issue was that we never received any update about pick up times/details from our hotel so were under the assumption the package started at 0800 (4hr package for 70min flight with no other times stipulated). It turns out that 0800 was our flight time, so we missed our pick up and nearly missed the experience! Not sure why we never received any confirmation of the pick up time, but that definitley needs to be rectified for future guests.

This was the highlight of our Las Vegas holiday. Everything went as planned, no hitches & even the weather was ideal. We took an early morning flight, and after being picked up at the time specified from our hotel we were taken to our helicopter. We met our knowledgeable pilot, learned so much from him. Fantastic trip!

We took a tour of the Grand Canyon with Papillon during our visit to Las Vegas. We'd never been to the Grand Canyon before, and this was DEFINITELY the way to see it! The pilot was super friendly and explained everything that was happening and what we were seeing, and she had a great sense of humor, made the ride really fun. Got to see Lake Meade and the Hoover Dam from above as well as views of the canyon that we never would have gotten any other way. Wonderful experience!

The whole trip was great especially the flight into the Grand Canyon but the small aeroplane flight from Boulder City to Grand Canyon West was fabulous too as we got to see so much. The pontoon boat at the bottom of the Canyon was brilliant. The whole trip was so worth the money.

Absolutely! Photography is encouraged. However, selfie sticks and extended camera poles are not allowed onboard for safety reasons. Be sure to bring a secure camera or use your phone.

What happens if my airplane tour is canceled due to weather?

If your tour is canceled due to bad weather conditions, such as strong winds, rain, or low visibility, you will typically be offered a rescheduled tour or a full refund, depending on the weather conditions and the tour operator.

Are food or drinks provided during the airplane tour?

Most airplane tours are short and do not include meals. Some extended tours may offer light refreshments or snack boxes. It’s a good idea to eat before your tour and carry water.

Should I combine an airplane tour with ground exploration of the Grand Canyon?

Yes! Many tours offer combined experiences, including ground tours, rim landings, or Hummer excursions. These provide a more comprehensive Grand Canyon experience, both from the sky and on foot.

Can I bring luggage or large bags on the airplane tour?

Due to space and weight constraints, large bags or luggage are generally not allowed on airplane tours. You can usually store them at the terminal or in your vehicle.

We are a family of five (children aged 9, 13, 14) and enjoyed the helicopter tour into the Grand Canyon very much. The team at Papillon was very professional and nice and eveything worked perfectly. Big shout out to our pilot Brian for making this such a memorable experience!

The scenery is magnificent, but our biggest regret is that it's impossible to take photos on the skywalk, as phones and cameras are forbidden, so the only way to get a souvenir is to pay $25 a photo. Really expensive!

The helicopter trip was absolutely amazing and the staff were fantastic. Our only issue was that we never received any update about pick up times/details from our hotel so were under the assumption the package started at 0800 (4hr package for 70min flight with no other times stipulated). It turns out that 0800 was our flight time, so we missed our pick up and nearly missed the experience! Not sure why we never received any confirmation of the pick up time, but that definitley needs to be rectified for future guests.

Hopping on the chopper was the best experience of my life. I am usually a little giddy up in the air, but the pilot and co-pilot were super friendly and helped distracting me.

Enjoyed the ride, but should we have crashed we were never instructed on how to release our seatbelts to get out of helicopter!

The ticketing experience was bad. The $717 charge didn't go through the first time I tried. When I did get it to work I was charged $838, instead of the $717. Still waiting for a credit.

The pilot was very professional and friendly. The ride was very smooth and this comes from someone who does not tolerate any type of turbulence. The take off and landing were very smooth. I sat in the front seat and didn't feel uncomfortable at all. My only complaint was that we had to wait 1 hour before our flight. This cut into the time we had for our bus tour. We had to skip on the sky walk in order to catch our return bus. But the helicopter ride was far better .

Carlito made the experience so memorable and well worth it. Aside from the most memorable sites, combined with his level of area knowledge & history and overall great humor... I will never forget this trip!!!!
