Overview

If you're visiting the Grand Canyon National Park, a helicopter tour is the only way to truly see the entire South Rim! Arrive at our state-of-the-art air terminal near the park entrance and board a 25-30 minute flight aboard a luxury sightseeing helicopter. You'll discover aerial views of the striped canyon walls, the Colorado River raging between them, the lush Kaibab Forest lining the canyon's surface, and the elusive North Rim.

You can also upgrade your Grand Canyon helicopter tour to include a ground excursion aboard an open-air Hummer vehicle that stops at multiple stunning lookout points along the canyon's edge.

Important Notice: Effective January 1, 2026, Grand Canyon National Park will implement entrance fees for non-U.S. residents on commercial ground tours, including Hummer combos. International guests must purchase a $250 pass or pay $100 per adult. Children 15 and under are free.
