We booked this trip at the same time we booked the entire holiday and we were not disapointed. Our transport picked us up on time at our hotel and we drove via the hoover dam to the ranch. When were at the ranch we waited about 30 minutes for our helicopter ride over the canyon. The pilot was chatty, friendly... More

We did the helicopter flight of the Grand Canyon starting by bus from Las Vegas, we were told when booking that total time from pick up to drop off would be from 7.30 to 3.30 but we did not get back until 6 pm, quite a time difference which I guess they know about ? Long bus trip from Vegas... More

Organised a night time tour of the Vegas Strip for a friends birthday through Viator. It was really good value for money and they were a very organised company. Tour started off well enough, unfortunately within the first 5 mins, a warning light came on the dashboard and we had to return to base. It was during this return flight... More

We booked a 12 minute night flight across the strip through Viator and got a great deal. There is a bit of hanging around before then a safety video and onto a bus out to the airfield. The staff were friendly and had a bit of banter. The flight was great, the strip looks amazing at night. The only downside... More

We booked a flight to the grand canyon with overnight stay at the ranch, Firstly, I should say that the flight and the pilots where excellent for both the outbound and inbound trips. We had a good running commentary and excellent views of the canyon. Although, I agree with previous comments that the people in the middle seats (2 out... More

The views were amazing, but the rest of the experience was not enough to earn more than a 1/5 for me. I called in advance to schedule our pickup, and unfortunately it was 6:40am (too early for Vegas, baby!). The person on the phone informed me there was an additional surcharge of $15 a person. Are you kidding me? What... More

The helicopter tour out to the canyon, and the trip back were incredible, and the folks at the reception area in Las Vegas were nice. Unfortunately we should have passed on the rest. The ranch is a work in progress which we didn't mind. Unfortunately, the business on the ground is being managed by some folks who are way over... More

We booked a night time trip over the Las Vegas strip (through Viator). Described as "a 90 minute experience", it was only on close examination of the small print that you discover that the actual flight is only 12 to 15 minutes long. In our case, there was a delay, so our "experience" lasted about 2 hours, most of which... More
