I am so glad we decided to go all out for this "once-in-a-lifetime" experience. The helicopter landing in the Grand Canyon was magical. The views from the basin landing blew us away and the morning tea picnic (with champagne) was lovely!
The river rafting tour was such a nice addition to the Grand Canyon trip. We were able to swim in the Colorado River and see beautiful wildlife and incredible land formations that we would not have otherwise seen. It was absolutely worth the cost! I have no regrets at all! The tour was extremely well organised and we didn't have to worry about anything for the entire day. We were picked up promptly at 6 am from our hotel and dropped off at approx 4:30 pm and everything in between was taken care of. The staff, pilots and tour guides were courteous and friendly and hugely added to our overall enjoyment of the day. A big thanks to ALL involved!

The helicopter to the Grand Canyon was truly awesome and the pilot was terrific, entertaining and informative. We were the first helicopter to land that morning and the silence at the base of the canyon did justice to the undescribeable view we had. The raft ride was a great way to finish the day with some beautiful sights to see as we gently meandered down the river. The only thing that let the day down was the connection between the 2 aspects 20 minutes waiting around at an airfield for a small packed minibus that was so full my wife and I couldn't sit next to each other was a rude shock after the delightful limo collection from our hotel to the helicopter earlier that morning. Overall an amazing day.

A brilliant trip, breathtaking scenery and the opportunity to see some wildlife as well. The trip was suitable for all ages, although my 9 year old was bored to begin with on the rafting trip as lost interest in the talk given by our guide, however once we started moving he was much more enthusiastic. Be prepared for the weather, it is cold in the canyon in the early hours of the morning, especially in Feb when we went. The only regret we had, was that we did not have the opportunity to get a video of our helicopter ride as you do not return to the airport, this would have been something we would have liked to have.

The helicopter tour of the Grand Canyon was definitely the highlight of my recent trip to Las Vegas. Combining the helicopter tour with a rafting trip down the Colorado River allowed me to experience the Grand Canyon from the air, but also allowed me to take a leisurely trip down the river. The scenery was fantastic. The pilot/guides were also excellent.

Trip was unbelieveable! Would recommend to anyone. I'm afraid of heights so I was nervous at first but once in the air I was in such awe of the surroundings that I wasn't thinking about my fear. The canyon was beautiful and the pilot was great! The rafting tour was so relaxing and the tour guide was excellent. It was my husbands 40th bday and was a surprise. He said it was the best thing he had ever done in his life! Would definitely do again next time in Vegas!

From the moment we took off in the helicopter to the moment we stepped off the raft in the black canyon, we cannot fault this trip. This was our honeymoon and this trip was undoubtedly one of the highlights, probably the biggest highlight of our trip. There was a small problem, with the sound system on the helicopter but this was sorted out. The helicopter ride was smooth, with an informative commentary, and the approach and landing in the canyon took your breath away. What an opportunity! The champagne breakfast moved my new wife to tears. She couldn't believe we were having a champagne breakfast inside the Grand Canyon. The views were stunning! We were then taken to Boulder City by helicopter where we were transferred to our rafting trip. We set off from under the Hoover Dam, which we had previously seen from the air, and the trip down the Black Canyon on the Colorado River was awe inspiring. Our guide was both informative and very amusing. We stopped three times on beaches in the canyon and we ate our complimentary lunch, sat by the river. The views really were stunning. Overall, an excellent trip. We would definitely recommend this trip to anyone. Do not be put off by the fact that it costs quite a lot of money. It really is worth every penny, if not more. Well done to everyone involved. We'll be back!

We had a fantastic time. It was very well organised and good value for money. We would recommend everyone to do this while on holiday in Las Vegas. A trip of a lifetime.

The guide on the rafting trip was excellent, well informed, good personality and made the trip interesting and fun. The pilot on the helicopter could have been a little more interactive - it may have been her youth. All in all a very good trip and would recommend to anyone.

Amazing visuals but several things were never explained to me clearly at all. 1. It was not explained to me that I would not be landing back at the end of the day at the helicopter company. I was very much looking forward to purchasing a DVD of the day, by not returning to their location I tried to do it on the phone but the agent seemed very confused with my request. Who knows if I will ever be able to receive it. 2. When I was dropped off at the regional airport in Boulder City, it was never clearly explained to me at that airport roughly how long it would be until the bus would come and take me to the raft. Bus driver was a bit curt. I did not feel comfortable at all asking him questions.
