Helicopter Flight Over Grand Canyon

[daveyc150]

We will be visiting Las vegas later this year and really want to visit the Grand Canyon, we would prefer to take a helicopter flight from Las Vegas to do this.

Does anyone have any thoughts or recommendsations on which ones are good and reasonably priced?

Cheers
David

Above is a link for a Vegas trip report that is currently being posted on the community board. They took a helicopter trip to the Grand Canyon and posted pics. I bet they wouldn't mind sharing with the cost or what service they used. They seem really nice. I am following their report because we are going to Vegas in 9 days!

No way - seems like those things are always crashing - definately check the references. BTW - I am a huge chicken and a worry wart

Last time we visited Vegas we used Sundance helicopters http://www.helicoptour.com/ . We were very impressed with them, they seem to have one of the best reputations along with papillion. We were so impressed with their service that we are booked on a longer grand canyon flight and day out with them next month. On our trip next month we are flying to the Grand Canyon via the Hoover Dam, landing by the river and going on a pontoon boat down the river, then back in the helicopter to travel further along the canyon. Then over to the glass bridge and lunch there. Then back in the helicopter to fly back through the canyon and back down the Las Vegas strip.

I went via Heli-USA and then blackcanyon (raft/pontoon)tours.
You can google them both up.
Basically it cost me $430usd back in August 2006.
It was great.

We have booked one fianlly, we are taking a Sundance Helicopters flight, are really looking forward to it.

I read so quite poor reviews of Papillion I would make sure you get in touch when you get there and confirm, I read the were often late of didn't have people's details. Hope you have a good flight.
