Because of snow and low cloud cover on Monday our helicopter flight had to be rescheduled for Tuesday morning. Papillion Helicopter Tours were great they called us Monday 3 hrs before and were amazing at making sure we got it sorted. Monday Afternoon The Sunset Hummer Tour was amazing our Guide Jerry from Buck Wild Hummer Tours was a Native American not only did we get history about The Grand Canyon we got history about the Native American tribes as well. Watching the sunset was an amazing experience something truly special Tuesday 9am We got to Papillion Helecopter Tours booked in watched a 5 minute safety video and within 15 minutes were up in the air. Our pilot was amazing showing us the Grand Canyon and its beauty. It was a flight to remember If you're going to the Grand Canyon these two excursions are a must.

The views were awesome and the pilot was great! But..... you get what you pay for. The cabin was tight and very hot. Next time we will splurge for the roomier and more comfortable ride. All and all, highly recommended to anyone!

Wow! What an amazing view! Our helicopter pilot gave us an amazing tour of the South rim at the Grand Canyons. Seeing it from the edge is nothing compared to flying over them. The fly was smooth even though there where high winds so those who are scared shouldn't worry because it's an experience worth it! 10/10 I would recommend it to anybody visiting the canyons for a truly indescribable experience!!! Thank you Viator for allowing me to fly over one of the seven natural wonders of the world!!
