This is definitely a once in a life time tour. It is very expensive but if you are only going to be in Vegas once then it's the best way to see the Canyon rather than sitting on a bus for 4 hours there 2 hours at the Canyon and 4 hours home. The champaign lunch is nothing fancy but... More

If your agenda is to see the Grand Canyon by air, use the facility at the Grand Canyon Airport. I have read the other reviews about the flight from Vegas. We chose the 50 minute flight. The price per person is a little pricey at $250 per person, however it is worth every single penny!!! The views were spectacular, the... More

We were on the 10:30 at night tour and it was fantastic. A short taxi ride or they will pick you up at your hotel. They primed us up with a little champagne before the flight and then you get to see all the beautiful lights of the Las Vegas strip while you listen to wonderful music being piped through... More

A company that delivers exactly what they tell you if not more! This is worth every dollar, we did this in mid April 2012 and can't recommend or speak more highly of every person we delt with from the initial phone call to getting back to Australia and having our DVD of the flight waiting for us. No better way... More

This was the best way to see the Grand Canyon. Maverick were awesome, the helicopters and pilots are first class. This was my wife and my first attempt at sitting in a helicopter and were very pleasantly surprised at how smooth and quite the flight was, we never felt nervous at all. Our pilot passed his knowledge of the area... More

The overhaul experience was brilliant although my first time in a helicopter and I dont like flying, I must say DO IT. Grand Canyon is a sight that will take youre breath away.

Simply amazing! We were going to drive to the GC but a friend of ours told us not too. What he said was you are going to waste a whole day driving there and back and then spend a half hour going "oohhh, ahhhh" We decided then that we would splurge a bit and spend the money to take a... More

From my initial call to Maverick Aviation, to both of our trips with them, the staff was courteous and professional. We flew over the Vegas strip at night and it was awesome! They were always on time, super nice, and very knowledgable. Our plane ride and helicopter trip over the Grand Canyon was just beyond words. Both trips were well... More

We did the Wind Dancer tour and it was truly an amazing experience. The efficient and professional people at Maverick made us feel secure and the flight was very smooth. The north rim is only in the beginning of the canyon so there is not so much flying inside the canyon as we had expected.

I wish this site was directed to the Maverick Grand Canyon crew and flights, but I couldn't find it. I took the "Canyon Spirit" tour with pilot Zeke and was very impressed with the professionalism of the entire staff. The flight was smooth, the scenery was magnificent. A great way to enjoy the North Rim of the canyon while visiting... More
