From the minute you step aboard Grand Canyon Helicopters’ specially designed Eco-Star Helicopter, you’ll know that you made the right choice for your Grand Canyon tour. After settling into the Eco-Star’s super-comfortable bucket-type seats, you’re up and away! On the Majestic Tour, you’ll cross the South Rim of the Grand Canyon near Grandview Point and soar across the widest 
deepest part of the gorge, peering 5,000’ down to the heart of the canyon – the Colorado River. Soon, you’re face to face with the Grand Canyon’s higher, more densely forested side – the North Rim. This side of the canyon, which is only open for part of the year, supports plant and animal life the drier South Rim does not, such as aspen, oak and birch trees, and the distinctive Kaibab Squirrel.
As you take in these incredible sights out your Eco-Star’s oversized picture windows, take a moment to listen, too – in addition to taped narration that will make your flight an educational experience, Grand Canyon Helicopters uses only the most modern, quietest aircraft available for their Grand Canyon tours. It is the only touring helicopter whose sound output measures below the standard set forth by the National Park Service. Second only to your safety is Grand Canyon Helicopters’ regard for environmental stewardship.
Eventually, it’s time to head back to Grand Canyon South Rim via the Dragon Corridor, one of the Grand Canyon’s most photogenic areas. Later on, as you look back on your memories of your Grand Canyon helicopter tour, you’ll rest assured knowing that you got the most value from your Grand Canyon vacation dollar, and you went first class all the way. Space is limited, so book your seat today!
Flight length: 25-30 minutes
