Get a bird's-eye view of one of the world's great natural wonders on this adventure through the skies above the Grand Canyon. Watch as your pilots point out landmarks such as the 11-mile (17-km) Dragon Corridor, and admire the stunning rock formations that were sculpted over millions of years.

Begin your adventure at Grand Canyon National Park Airport, where you and a small group take off in a helicopter bound for the 15th-oldest national park in the United States. Fly through the “Dragon Corridor” – the deepest portion of the canyon – and listen as the pilot describes the geographic difference between the North and South Rim.

As you soar over the incredibly deep and colourful rock formations of the canyon's 1.2-million-acre (490,000-ha) expanse, immerse yourself in the breathtaking views, shaped by millennia of wind and water erosion and best captured from an aerial view.

Circle back over the mighty Colorado River and discover the scenic views available from both sides of the helicopter. Your 30-minute loop tour closes with an exploration of majestic landmarks such as the Tower of Ra and the Vishnu Schist.

Choose the upgrade option to include a 2-hour Hummer tour through the Grand Canyon National Park, with stops at the most notable lookout points. Or the upgrade option for the Sunset Hummer tour.
