Why Maverick Grand Canyon Helicopters Is The Luxury Travelers' Favorite

By Nena Fuentes


Helicopter tours of the Grand Canyon are available in different prices, but the tours offered by Maverick are the ones you want when you have luxury in mind. The 5-star tours provided by Maverick are unmatched when it comes to safety, comfort, and service. It is definitely worth the extra cost to have a fantastic experience. It's the best way to tour.

Maverick owns the best state of the art choppers touring the Grand Canyon. EcoStar 130 ChoppersMaverick uses the best sightseeing helicopters available, the EcoStar 130. Thanks to the stadium-style seats these choppers have, you'll get a great view. In addition, the cabin is 25 percent larger than traditional helicopters and the EcoStar 130 has a wraparound windshield for the best view.

Maverick hires the best pilots in the business and you can speak with your pilot easily during your flight. In the summer when the temperatures soar, you will appreciate the advance climate control provided by these choppers too. All things considered, the EcoStar 130 is the perfect aircraft for taking a Grand Canyon tour.

Departure Cities: All flights on Maverick helicopters take off from the Vegas Strip (West Rim tours) or a private terminal at the South Rim's Grand Canyon National Park Airport. The Strip flights are amazing besides being convenient (just a few minutes from virtually all the big hotels), on the leg home you get to fly over the Strip.

Las Vegas Landing And Air-Only Tours: Maverick gives you a choice in tours from Vegas, they can be air-only, or you can land at the West Rim. The helicopters that depart from Las Vegas only fly to the West Rim since the South Rim is out of flight range being 277 miles away. The flight to the canyon offers spectacular scenic views of the Colorado River, Hoover Dam, Lake Mead, and the canyon itself.

When you take a landing tour, you can get out on the canyon floor or on the top of the rim. The most popular Maverick tours fly you down to the canyon floor. These tours include a fun Champagne picnic and about 30 minutes to explore the canyon and shore of the river. If you pick the tour that lands at the top, you'll have about 2 1/2 hours on the ground to explore. You'll have many sights to take in such as Eagle Point and Guano Point. One flight even comes with VIP access to the all-glass Grand Canyon Skywalk. It's a remarkable place that lets you stand 4,000 feet above the canyon bottom, 70 feet past the edge!

South Rim Chopper Tours: If you're in Vegas and want to take a tour of the South Rim, take an airplane from the city to the South Rim first, then you can transfer to a chopper or bus. You'll have about 2 1/2 hours to tour the inside of the National Park by bus. The Maverick helicopter tours of the South Rim depart every day from their terminal in Tusayan at the Grand Canyon National Park Airport. One of the tour options is a thirty-minute flight that takes you to the North Rim and back. If you have enough time, opt for the 50-minute tour, which is packed with lots of fantastic views. It goes to the North Rim too, but it also flies you over to the eastern border of the National Park. This is a comprehensive tour that flies you over three-fourths of the entire Grand Canyon National Park!
