25-min Grand Canyon South Rim EcoStar Helicopter Tour with Optional Hummer
About this tour
From a luxury helicopter, soar above the massive gorges of Grand Canyon National Park and the winding Colorado River. Take in breathtaking aerial views of the park’s most recognizable landmarks, including some of the oldest exposed rock formations on Earth.

A professional driver will take you to scenic viewpoints such as Duck on a Rock, Yavapai Point, and Moran Point, with time to explore and take photos. Important Notice: Effective January 1, 2026, Grand Canyon National Park will implement entrance fees for non-U.S. residents on commercial ground tours, including Hummer combos.

Helicopter tours in Grand Canyon, Arizona
Flying below the rim of the Grand Canyon and between its layered red-rock walls is one of the few ways to see the canyon's true scale. Most tours depart from Las Vegas or nearby airstrips.
When's the best time to fly?
Spring and fall offer the clearest skies and most comfortable temperatures. Summer brings the longest days and most availability but also the most heat and haze; winter is quieter with dramatic light, though flights occasionally get rescheduled around storms.
What should I bring?
A light jacket even in summer (it's cooler at altitude and inside the canyon), sunglasses, and a camera with a wrist strap.
What if the weather doesn't cooperate?
Like most operators, tours in the Grand Canyon have standard weight and balance limits (you may be asked your weight when booking or checking in), and pilots will delay or reschedule rather than fly in unsafe wind, low visibility, or storms. Booking a tour with free cancellation means a weather delay won't cost you anything.
