I did this tour while I visited Las Vegas. The canyon is is unbelievably breathtaking

I took this flight and it was great. It cost me $400. We hovered above the Hoover Dam to take photos and then flew on into the Grand Canyon. I got to sit in the copilot seat on the way out. When we landed it was on part of a Native American tribe's land, and we were served a nice box lunch before we headed back to Vegas. It was a once in a lifetime adventure.

$400 fuck, I could get a 30 minute helicopter flight over south Cork, Ireland for €110. Seems like they want to charge for the scenery. I'm going to the grand canynon next year but I'll skip the helicopter.

@@cattlewranglerwalsh116 For some perspective recently spent a week on a self-guided trip through the upper canyon (Lee's Ferry to Phantom Ranch) over a period of 7 days. It cost just a little more than a helicopter ride. And I guarantee we saw stuff that was just as cool.

GRAND CANYON IS BREATHTAKING BEAUTY!
@PaulbylPaulbyl Жыл бұрын
We took this very flight on Maverick helicopters and it was amazing. The guy that took this video actually did good job because once you get over the canyon it feels like you're just suspended over it and nothing is moving. The video here has lots of zooming in and clean shooting. There are moments in life where I tear up and thank God for so much overwhelming scenic beauty and the helicopter tour over the Grand Canyon definitely was one of them. As an aside, at 5:40 I asked the pilot (the microphones are two-way) if he was aware of how close the North wall was getting and he was very smooth in deflecting the question and I couldn't help but think that it was my mistaken perception and his response had to be one that put me and the other passengers at ease. Lifetime memory for sure!

We did this back in 1995 - in a fixed wing aircraft. They play classic music over the headsets don't they whilst the pilot tells you all about what you are looking at. Its amazing in a fixed wing because as you go over the rim of the Canyon the aircraft kind of jumps a little because of the thermals. It was an amazing experience. We were told that Dances with Wolves was filmed here...

@hannothephoenician63310 жыл бұрын
A nice ride, and I see both rims are covered, as Mount Hayden appears in one scene (the pinnacle sticking up, below Point Imperial). Helicopters are not allowed to go below the rim to preserve the pristine experience for most people. It's possible to do so, if disaster strikes. I did many Backpacking trips thru the Canyon when younger, off both rims. On one difficult and off trail trip, I got hurt and had to get evacuated by helicopter, from near the bottom, something no tourist can pay to do. The injury was painful and required a surgery at the GCNP hospital. However, you can bet I stared out the window on the way up and out, as pain didn't stop me from experiencing this ride. And to answer a question a troll might ask, my health insurance paid for the rescue, as the helicopter was seen as an ambulance. The pilot and hospital did a very good, professional job. I was more cautious on my next two trips down there!

Great video. This can't really convey how dry and dusty it is. However, the experience of coming over the rim and suddenly seeing it - that was how it felt when I was at the Canyon. The South rim is much more interesting than the north, hard to do both, very roundabout trip. there still aren't many bridges across.
