Not a VIP experience

This was not a VIP experience, it could have been had the expectations and promises been delivered. For $2500 (for 2) I expected better. Some of the items advertised as part of this tour were not included. The helicopter ride was fabulous as would be expected and the Grand Canyon spectacular. And the boat ride although short was a different visual perspective. But the advertised inclusion of a skywalk photo was not forthcoming. It was crossed out on the paper provided at the helicopter terminal even though it appears in tour inclusions on TripAdvisor. Also more impacting was the inclusion in writing and explanation by Papillon Helicopters on arrival that the tour included a shuttle service by them from the Papillon helicopter terminal at Grand Canyon to the various vantage points with strict instructions to ensure a 3pm final return to make it for departure of helicopter. After waiting 25 minutes on arrival at GC for the shuttle (with only 2 hours there and a strict time limit) I went in to ask about the shuttle. There were 3 shuttles parked outside the terminal and numerous staff inside chatting and on mobile phones. I was asked how many of us arrived by the helicopter and mins later we were transported. But then asking about our next shuttle we were told to use the public service along with all other tourists! I didn’t pay for that and this resulted in waiting in long queues at the bus stop and then no time at the various locations. Also our ‘vip’ skywalk skip the line wasn’t honoured either. We had to line up along with all others. So. If you are thinking about this experience you’d be better off finding your own way to the Boulder helicopter terminal, paying for the trip on the helicopter, using the public shuttle. Save yourself some money.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Absolutely Unforgettable Experience! Our helicopter tour with Papillon Helicopter was nothing short of incredible! From start to finish, the experience was perfectly organized and truly unforgettable. We flew over the Hoover Dam, took a peaceful boat ride with the local tribe who graciously gifted us handmade toys crafted by their elders, walked the breathtaking Sky Bridge over the Grand Canyon, and soaked in the views from Guano Point, each moment felt magical. A huge shoutout to our pilot, Mitch, who made the day exceptional. He was not only an amazing pilot, but also kind, funny, and incredibly knowledgeable about the area. His calm demeanor and insight added so much to the experience and made us feel completely safe the entire time. If you’re looking for a once-in-a-lifetime adventure that blends beauty, culture, and awe-inspiring views, this is the tour to book. Thank you, Papillon, and especially Mitch, for giving us a day we will never forget!

(Translated by Google) I couldn't recommend it more! My husband and brother gave me a plane tour over the Grand Canyon as a gift, and it was the best experience of my life. Our pilot, Sarah, shared interesting facts with us as we flew over the landscape. Breathtaking, I'd repeat it a thousand times. They picked us up promptly at the hotel, the staff couldn't have been friendlier, and the flight was indescribable. My advice: even if you have to get up very early, take the first flight! In a 12-seater plane, there were only 6 of us, and we all enjoyed the views. A perfect 10! (Original) No puede ser más recomendable!!!! Me regalaron mi marido y mi hermano el vuelo en avioneta por el Gran Cañón, y ha sido la mejor experiencia de mi vida. Nuestra piloto, Sarah, nos comentaba curiosidades mientras sobrevolábamos el paisaje. Sobrecogedor, para repetir una y mil veces. Nos recogieron puntualmente en el hotel, el personal no puede ser más simpático, y el vuelo, no se puede describir. Como recomendación, aunque os peguéis el madrugón, coged el primero!!!! En una avioneta de 12 solo íbamos 6 personas y todos disfrutamos de las vistas. Un 10!!

(Translated by Google) Simply spectacular! The plane tour over the Grand Canyon was incredible, and the service from this airline was fantastic. Sarah, our pilot, was amazing, always attentive to our needs. The flight was smooth as silk. If you're in the Las Vegas area, this activity is definitely worth booking because the beauty of nature in this place leaves you speechless, and you also get to see the Hoover Dam, which is simply incredible! (Original) Simplemente espectacular, el paseo en Avioneta por el cañón del Colorado, fue increíble, y el trato de esta aerolínea, buenísimo, Sarah nuestra piloto, una crack, pendiente de nosotros en todo momento, y el vuelo fue como la seda, si estás en la zona de Las Vegas, merece la pena contratar esta actividad porque te deja sin palabras la belleza que ha hecho la naturaleza en este sitio, y de paso ves la presa Hoover que es sencillamente increíble!!!

Amazing experience and well worth the cost. You see so much and a lot of the Grand Canyon compared to driving over 4 hours from Vegas just to stand on the rim. Highly recommend!
