Robert and Chris made the whole trip feel like an inside joke you’re lucky to be in on. Every time something popped up (like the AC being a lil funky), they just rolled with it—fixed up everything soooo quick. Food at the end was actually good (cookies = DELISH), and the juice after a hot day? I felt like I’d won a prize. Bring a hat if it’s August, it gets real toasty but the stops are spaced out nicely. Would 100% do this again with these guys.

Fun tour and super organized, but ngl, the weather was just brutal. 44C and the AC on the bus was fighting for its life. Our guide Laila kept us laughing though, and the Grand Canyon was EPIC, even if I sweated like crazy. PRO TIP: bring extra water, and don’t expect gourmet food. Still, worth it for the views!

Went with my wife and two kids (ages 8 and 12). Laila is such a LEGEND, made sure everyone was comfy and even helped my youngest with her sunhat. Bus stops had clean bathrooms (thank goodness), and the snacks at the end made my kids’ day. Not cheap, but honestly… you get what you pay for here.

Pretty solid tour, but kinda felt rushed at each stop. Our guide was nice (can’t remember his name, sorry!), but I would’ve liked more time to just chill and take in the views. Lunch was okay (sandwich was a bit soggy), but the whole thing ran on time. Good for first-timers, I guess.

I’m not usually a tour person, but this one surprised me. The stops were spaced out just right, and the group was small enough we didn’t feel like cattle. Our guide, Bob, was super chill and knew all the good photo spots. Bring your own snacks if you’re picky tho.

Decent tour. My friend and I enjoyed the guide’s stories (some were a little cheesy, but in a good way). The Canyon is as beautiful as everyone says. Warning: lots of people at the view points, so if you want empty pics, go early. Juice at the end was a nice touch!

Drove out for the day with my boyfriend and honestly, the ride was loooong but didn’t even care once we saw the canyon. Our guide (Russ? I think?) was hilarious, told us all these weird animal facts. We got sandwiches for lunch (not fancy but did the job). Heads up, bring ur own snacks if ur picky. The bathroom stops are spaced out, so plan ahead! Views were EPIC, like, jaw-on-the-floor style. Would totally go again, just maybe bring a neck pillow next time.

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!

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!

Honestly, this tour was SOOO much fun. Went with my girlfriend and we both loved the whole vibe. Our guide, Min, kept cracking jokes the whole time and even helped us find the best spot for ice cream on Nami Island (seriously, pistachio is a win). The railbike part was a bit sweaty but totally worth the views. Got a bit crowded in the afternoon though, so maybe start early if ur not into crowds. Big thumbs up!

Nami Island is suuuper cute—those tree-lined paths! We rented bikes (def do that if u don’t wanna walk forever). Seorak Mountain was a bit crowded but the cable car views were wild. Packed snacks and was glad I did since the food stalls at Seorak had huge lines. Heads up: bring bug spray for the hike. Would totally do this again!

Went solo b/c my friends bailed, but didn’t regret it. Guide was friendly, group was a mixed bunch—families, some couples. Nami Island in the morning was really peaceful, but it got PACKED after 11am. Seorak is stunning, but ngl the steps up to the observatory are a workout so wear good shoes. It rained a bit in the afternoon but still got amazing pics. Wish we had 30 more mins at the mountain but overall, worth it.

Group trip with work mates—so much fun! Nami Island is a dream for IG pics. Seorak Mountain was the best, especially with our guide who kept the energy high. Recommend.

Enjoyed the day. Nami Island is very pretty but a bit touristy. Seorak Mountain was the highlight for me, especially the cable car. Guide was helpful and kept us on time.

Did this trip with my partner. Weather was HOT, so bring sunscreen and a hat. Nami Island is really something else, all those tall trees and birds. We skipped the bike rental but kinda wish we hadn’t, it’s bigger than it looks. Seorak Mountain hike was doable, not too steep. Only thing: bus AC wasn’t strong, so ride back was sweaty. Still a really good day.

Took my parents for their anniversary. Guide was super sweet and kept checking in on them. Nami Island was a hit, especially with all the flowers. Seorak Mountain hike was a bit much for them but they loved the cable car. Highly recommend, especially for families.

Good day trip from Seoul. Nami Island is cool but gets crowded fast. Seorak Mountain hike is a workout so wear good shoes. Guide was friendly.

Enjoyed this tour. Nami Island is very picturesque, lots of places for great pics. Seorak Mountain was busy but the air was sooo fresh. Bring good shoes, lots of walking. Only downside: not much time to just sit and relax anywhere.

Fun day with friends! Nami Island was crowded but we still had fun biking around. Seorak Mountain hike left us all sweaty but the view was worth it. Guide was cool, gave us free water.

Big group but still managed to have fun. Nami Island is cute, lots of animals running around. Seorak Mountain hike was sweaty but the view was EPIC.

Not usually a tour person but this was worth it. Early start but got to Nami before the tourist bus wave. Seorak Mountain hike kicked my butt but the view at the top? UNREAL. Guide was funny and let us roam a bit. Bring water, trust me.

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!

Family trip (with two teens). Nami Island was crowded but magical, and we still managed to snag some good photos before it got super busy. Mt Seorak is GORGEOUS, the air felt so fresh. FYI: lots of walking/hiking involved. The guide, Jamie, was great with keeping everyone together and sharing random facts. Bus was comfy. Only minus was the line for the cable car—waited almost 40 mins. But overall, fun day.

Loved this trip! Went with my boyfriend. Nami Island was a fairytale with the cherry blossoms. Seorak hike was hard but worth it for the view. Guide was super enthusiastic.

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.
