What you can expect

Board a helicopter and prepare to see the Grand Canyon in all its pristine glory during a landing tour that takes you deep into this natural world wonder. Marvel at the canyon's magnificent beauty from both air and land, eventually landing at the bottom of its West Rim.

Head to the Grand Canyon West Airport in Peach Springs and hop into an ECO-Star helicopter equipped with comfortable seats and windows large enough to take in sweeping views of the canyon's striking scenery. Take to the skies and enjoy spectacular bird's-eye views of lands sacred to the Hualapai tribe on the way to the canyon.

Once you've reached the canyon, descend below its rim to a depth of about 3,500 feet (1,066 m) and make a soft landing, about 300 feet (91 m) above the majestic, rushing Colorado River. Take in this area's mystique and grandeur, with rainbow-colored layers of sandstone rising up from the canyon's bottom all round you. End your experience by getting back into the helicopter and taking in more memorable views of striking red rock formations during your return trip.
