Extremely professional operation, with great attention to detail. Flying later in the day was the right choice, with wonderful golden light adding to the experience and the beauty of the landscape. Our pilot blended flying and tour-guiding with aplomb.

The Sunset Grand Canyon helicopter tour definitely lived up to its billing and was the unanimous highlight of our Vegas trip. Our party of 3 appreciated being picked up in a clean shuttle, being greeted by the very organized Maverick team, the amazing helicopter tour and finally being returned to our hotel. It would be easy to be mesmerized by the beauty of the Grand Canyon itself; however, it was the little things that stood out to us that made the experience so memorable. The professionalism of the staff, the priority on safety (including an AED on location in the Grand Canyon), the level of orchestration and process that was apparent, etc. All of which allowed us to relax and completely enjoy the experience.

The views and the actual experience of the ride to the canyon is epic, there is no doubting that. Maverick aren’t the cheapest company to do this with, but they do keep the fleet of helicopters very well. The best experience is gained from the front seats (there are three for customers) and I would recommend you grab this seat for the first leg of the trip into the canyon as you will get the best experience out of the three legs of the trip. We didn’t get the front seats for the first leg but the pilot confirmed it was the best view and experience from the front. Our pilot - Jordan, was great. Lots of insight into the history of the areas we flew over too. He was friendly and happy to chat with us and answer any questions. The only reason I didn’t give them five stars is twofold; 1. They refused to pick us up from the rental villa which was within six mile radius of them as it ‘wasn’t a hotel’. 2. They advertise ‘Champagne’ will be available on the stop over in the canyon. They don’t provide Champagne - it’s sparking wine. There’s a very big difference!! Don’t advertise one thing and deliver another!

Dear Maverik Customer Service, I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to formally express my dissatisfaction with the helicopter tour experience I had with your company in Las Vegas, specifically regarding the conduct of the pilot, David. On September 24, 2024, I participated in your premium tour package, which included a stop at the canyon, a picnic with champagne, and a sunset view. Unfortunately, my experience was marred by the unprofessional behavior of the pilot. Firstly, at the beginning of the tour, I was rudely addressed by David when attempting to take a photo in front of the helicopter. He insisted that photos could only be taken in groups, which was not communicated to me beforehand. Secondly, during the refueling stop, while other passengers were taking photos near the helicopter, David again spoke to me in a disrespectful manner, warning me not to touch the aircraft and stating its value in a condescending tone. His words implied that my actions could cause damage, which I found unnecessary and demeaning. The most distressing incident occurred when David confronted me about vaping outdoors. His reaction was aggressive; he shouted and pointed his finger in my face, disregarding my status as a paying customer. Despite my attempt to reason with him, he continued to raise his voice and even threatened to leave me in the desert. While I understand the importance of safety and the pilot's authority, I believe that respect and professionalism should always be maintained, especially towards clients. The manner in which David addressed me was unacceptable and overshadowed what should have been a memorable experience. I am seeking a formal apology from your company and a refund for the tour, as the service provided did not meet the standards promised. I trust that you will address this matter with the seriousness it deserves to ensure no other customers endure a similar experience. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response. Sincerely, Elaine Schoen Minto

We were picked up promptly from our hotel and transferred to the Maverick holding site prior to take off. We waited for about 1 hour before our pilot collected us. Our pilot was Clint who was super helpful. The flight to the canyon was an amazing experience. Once we landed in the canyon Clint looked after us with snacks, water and sparkling wine before our flight back, refuelling and then a flight down the strip. Sunset happened just after we landed. An amazing experience

I can`t praise Maverick highly enough. From start to finish they were professional, helpful, friendly, & went out of their way to make the trip excellent. I`ve flown to the canyon a number of times and always with Maverick. The tours are not cheap, around $600, but they are bucket list material.

Fantastic wedding day ❤️- Sunset Grand Canyon package - extremely well organised. Both, Marie our wedding planner with infinite patience and charm, and our pilot Matt (very knowledgeable and helpful) were both very professional with great attention to detail, ensuring we have the best day possible! I highly recommend Maverick Helicopters for any special occasion - they will definitely impress by going the extra mile! Thank you

My partner and I booked the Grand Canyon Sunset tour from Las Vegas with Maverick Helicopters, having wanted to visit this natural wonder for many, many years. The booking process through TripAdvisor was fluid and very straight forward and we submitted our details and kept in touch with the company in the days leading up to the trip to ensure we were at the right pick-up location. The staff were extremely polite and helpful and the heliport itself was impressively clean, well organised and professionally run. Our pilot went through the health and safety demonstration efficiently and was confident, friendly and happy to answer any questions. He rotated the passengers so that we all had the opportunity to sit up front and get the most incredible views, and his play list was also pretty impressive - Motley Crue, Creedance Clearwater Revival and Arctic Monkeys. The Canyon itself was something to behold, especially as the sun was setting with a glass of champagne in hand. The whole trip was around 2-3 hours in length with 90 minutes spent in the air taking in the most incredible views and learning about the geology and makeup of the landscape. 100% recommend to anyone wanting to experience the Grand Canyon and earn their helicopter wings!

The helicopter tour was cool. Our pilot was very nice and made sure everyone enjoyed the flight. Be aware that the flight is quite short, but that’s to be expected at $100 per flight.

Maverick was our big splurge for this Vegas trip. 10/10 would recommend! Our pilot Aaron was great and knowledgeable. Pickup and drop off from our hotel was great. We did the Indian Territory where we landed at the bottom and top. Aaron made sure we rotated seats so everyone got a chance in the front seats. Spend the money and do it!

This was an amazing experience! The views of the Hoover Dam and Lake Mead on the way to the Canyon were exceptional!! The pilot made sure to dip down over the dam so both sides of the copter got the best view. On the way back we circle the Strip. Wow what a view!! If I make it back to Vegas I will book a flight with Maverick again!

We took the night helicopter ride over the Las Vegas strip. There were three people sitting in the front with the pilot and three people in the backseat. The people in the front with the exception of the pilot had some difficulty viewing the strip, particularly given that the pilot only takes one trip around the stratosphere on the strip and the person on the right hand side is unable to see the strip at all. The folks sitting in the back of the helicopter, the only person that had any view whatsoever of the strip was the individual sitting directly behind the pilot. Please be aware that if you take this flight to view the strip at night with Maverick helicopters and that you are taking the flight alone and sitting directly behind the pilot! If you don’t do this, you won’t see much of the strip at all.

What fun we all had. A short ride but worth it. Evening has to be best to experience the strip in all it's glory. Well worth the money.

This tour actually brought tears to my eyes because seeing the scenery from the helicopter was so beautiful! It was a lot of money for the tour (we have to pay in Canadian dollars) but it was worth every penny. The pick up at the hotel was easy. The lobby of the "airport" was large and clean. Our pilot was experienced and gave us explanations of what we were seeing along the way. There were 6 passengers and only 2 spots in the front, so they allowed us to rotate. They stop to refuel on the way back so everyone got a chance to sit in the front. This is an unbelievable experience!

We flew over Molokai, Maui and it was fabulous! Our pilot was incredibly good! Absolutely loved this trip, it made our holiday - thank you!
