I can finally say I have seen the Vegas Strip from ABOVE! This was my first experience with Headout, and it did not disappoint! The booking process was seamless and clear. I booked the day-of and there were no issues. Everything was ready for my party of 3 when we arrived at the site. We all had such a blast! Even one of my friends was nervous to fly, so they sat her right next to the pilot and made her feel comfortable the whole time. I hightly recommend this helicoptor tour for people who want to see Vegas from above!

We made a tour to the Grand Canyon South Rim which combined plane, helicopter and ground services. Everything was excellent and very well organized: the tour was booked by phone by the hotel front desk which took only a few minutes. On the day of the tour everything worked perfectly so that we could really enjoy our visit to the Grand Canyon. Both pilots were excellent and we felt safe all the time.

"The trip along the strip was great, we flew from close to the Welcome to Las Vegas sign along to the Stratosphere tower and back. I especially liked the commentary during the flight."

We were collected from our hotel in a stretch limo and taken to the airport. The tour was so well organised and ran smoothly. Our pilot was great and really knowledgable about the landmarks. The flight itself was amazing, we then landed at the bottom of the Grand Canyon for a champagne breakfast this was a lovely little touch and there was plenty of time for photos before the return flight. The return flight was great and we went over the las vegas strip too! All in all an amazing trip, and recommended to anyone! A must if you're visiting vegas!

This was a fab trip and well worth the extra money. I wouldn't swap this experience for a coach trip. The pilot was brilliant, he had a great sense of humour which made it fun as well. At one point as cheesy as this is, we were all singing Viva Las Vegas. You have headphones on so you can all communicate with each other. Our party got split into two which was fine, i think the maximum one could take was 7. Our flew over the tops of the canyon and the other helicopter stopped for fuel at the bottom. Which although it was only stopping for fuel I'm jealous! We had our kids with us and they both fell asleep as soon as we got over the canyon, couldn't keep them awake. Most expensive nap ever but still worth every penny. The transfers were really simple as well and totally stress free which was nice. They do have a gift shop onsite which would normally be really expensive, but it wasn't which makes a nice change. Would certainly recommend these guys!!!

We took the 10 minute night flight tour of the strip. The facilities are very comfortable, easy to locate, and have ample parking. The tour is brief but you get a thrilling owl's eye view of the Strip. You are allowed to take video and flash-less pictures.

I surprised my 4 boys ages 12, 15, 17, 18 with this package. The limo picked them up exactly on time which they thought was the surprise. Of course they loved that, but was waiting was absolutely the "E" ticket ahead. They are still talking about it. If you go to Vegas you HAVE to do this. Great way to propose, get out of trouble trump card, or just romantic. For the boys, well one now wants to become a helicopter pilot, and the other 3 have bragging rights. I didn't go because I wanted them to feel mommy wasn't everywhere. Hey they can't go to a club, it would cost the same amount if they could, so why not give them something they will never forget, just do it.

We had six in the chopper and there was a heap of room.this is a great tour. We flew out to the Grand Canyon and landed at the base for morning tea and bubbles.the scenery is amazing. Although expensive it is well worth the trip. We had a great guide (Brady) full of knowledge and was happy to answer all the questions the kids could throw at him.

We missed our shuttle the first time around and were able to reschedule without any issues. (So be sure to call in and check to get the exact time you will be picked up from the hotel.)

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.

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.

Everything was great. They shuttled us from the strip to the airport and back. The plane, helicopter, and boat excursion of the Grand Canyon was one of the coolest things we've ever done. Put it on your bucket list.

I was hesitant on taking this tour due to the high cost but i can honestly say that this heli flight was value for money. We had spent 3 weeks in the USA and taken many tours and the flight with Maverick to the Grand Canyon was the highlight of our entire trip.

This truly was an unforgettable trip! We had the champagne picnic at sunset and would thoroughly recommend it. We enjoyed views of Lake Mead and the Hoover Dam on the way out and sunset on our return.

Booked this for my fiancé' birthday. Was absolutely brilliant! Everything was well organised from the limo picking us up to checking in and getting us on the helicopter. Our pilot Fred was brilliant very jokey and informative. We were in one of the newer helicopters which was comfortable with big windows so could see no matter where you sat. Had a lovely champagne breakfast when we landed in the cannon. The only negative I have is you have to pay an extra 50 per person when you check in. Think with the amount you pay for the trip anyway this wasn't necessary. But I would strongly reccomend doing this, the views of the strip and cannon are unbelievable. Both of us absolutely loved this trip.

This adventure was AWESOME. I retired 6 years ago, and seeing the Grand Canyon was on my bucket list. This is my far the best way to view the Grand Canyon and I really can tell you how great is was. This is my fourth helicopter tour and it was second to none. Our pilot was excellent and very friendly and informative. If you are thinking about doing it-do it, you will not be disappointed.

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.

Everything was great. They shuttled us from the strip to the airport and back. The plane, helicopter, and boat excursion of the Grand Canyon was one of the coolest things we've ever done. Put it on your bucket list.

I was hesitant on taking this tour due to the high cost but i can honestly say that this heli flight was value for money. We had spent 3 weeks in the USA and taken many tours and the flight with Maverick to the Grand Canyon was the highlight of our entire trip.

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!

Grand Canyon West Rim Entry Tickets with Optional Skywalk Upgrade

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.

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 .
