Join the ultimate shared helicopter sightseeing tour from the Grand Canyon Helicopters terminal at Grand Canyon National Park Airport (GCN) in Tusayan, just south of Grand Canyon Village. The state-of-the-art helicopter rises above the forested plateau, then plunges you into the canyon's depths as you head toward the stunning Little Colorado River confluence, peering over 5,000 feet down to where the rivers meet. Next, glide past Imperial Point near the North Rim at plateau level for intimate views of towering cliffs and the lush forests that thrive in this cooler, wetter climate unlike the arid South Rim. The return sweeps through the breathtaking Dragon Corridor, the canyon's most dramatic and photogenic stretch, before tracing the South Rim back to Tusayan.

Q&A

Q: Can I reschedule this helicopter tour if the weather looks bad?

A: Yes, you can reschedule if the weather isn't ideal! The operators are pretty flexible about this, especially for safety reasons. Just give them a call as soon as you know you need to change your plans, and they’ll help you find another time that works. Just keep in mind that during peak season, weekends book up fast, so try to reschedule sooner rather than later!

Q: What should we wear for the helicopter tour?

A: Dress comfortably! Layers are key since it can get chilly up in the air, especially near the North Rim. Closed-toe shoes are recommended for safety reasons, and I’d suggest a light jacket or hoodie just in case. Don’t forget your sunglasses and sunscreen – the sun can be intense up there!

Q: Is there an age limit for kids on this helicopter tour?

A: Yes, there is an age limit. Kids need to be at least 2 years old to ride, and they must sit on their own seat, so if you’re bringing a toddler who needs a car seat, they won’t be able to join. Just make sure to check with the provider for the latest guidelines – safety is always the priority!

Just booked the Grand Canyon helicopter tour!

Super excited! I just booked the helicopter tour for my family for next month. It's a bit of a splurge, but I think it'll be the highlight of our trip. Any recommendations on what to do around the area after the tour?
