Good trip needs more explanation

The flight is pretty awesome. OMG you fly into the Grand Canyon and stop on top of a butte. I would have loved more narrative about what we were seeing. Headsets were difficult to hear the pilot and he had little or nothing to say. Bit disappointing.

A different perspective , seeing it from the air

I had an amazing experience. The pilot Sam is a great guide. I felt so safe. Seeing from the air really gives you a better perspective of how massive the canyons are.
