We had a great flight!! The plane was as expected and the we had great views of the canyon! We would totally go again! My husband and I both got a little motion sick towards the end- but noting that ruined our day. It was cool to see the canyon from that vantage point and hear all about it through our headphones!! 10/10 would recommend!!!

Our flight over the Grand Canyon was absolutely perfect!!! From the beginning of getting the tickets to getting off the plane after the flight was wonderful! All of the staff were very professional and nice! The flight topped off our Grand Canyon visit. The only thing is I wish their gift shop would have been open so I could have purchased a shirt say I fly with their company over the Grand Canyon. I highly recommend this flight! Thanks very much!

This was definitely worth the money! I wanted to take a helicopter tour over the Canyon but it was a bit out of my price range. This was the perfect backup tour! It was fun to ride in a small plane, but if you don't like that stomach-flip feeling this tour isn't for you! I'm a bit of a daredevil so didn't mind it at all. Highly recommend for an affordable aerial tour of the Grand Canyon!
