Overview

Join the ultimate shared helicopter sightseeing tour from the Grand Canyon Helicopters terminal at Grand Canyon National Park Airport (GCN) in Tusayan, just south of Grand Canyon Village.

The state-of-the-art helicopter rises above the forested plateau, then fly over the canyon's depths as you head toward the stunning Little Colorado River confluence, peering over 5,000 feet down to where the rivers meet.

Next, glide past Imperial Point near the North Rim at plateau level for intimate views of towering cliffs and the lush forests that thrive in this cooler, wetter climate unlike the arid South Rim.

The return sweeps through the breathtaking Dragon Corridor, the canyon's most dramatic and photogenic stretch, before tracing the South Rim back to Tusayan.

Grand Canyon South Rim (pass by)

Depart from the Grand Canyon Helicopters terminal at Grand Canyon National Park Airport in Tusayan and climb above the Kaibab National Forest before crossing the South Rim, where the ground seems to drop away and the canyon opens more than a mile deep below.
Read more

Little Colorado River Overlook (pass by)

Fly toward the dramatic confluence of the Little Colorado River with the main Colorado River, looking more than 5,000 feet down into the inner gorge at vivid rock colors, sharp canyon walls and the contrasting river channels.
Read more

Point Imperial Drive (pass by)

Drift past Imperial Point, a striking sandstone spire standing alone near the North Rim, while flying at roughly the same elevation as the plateau for unusually close views of the cliffs and mesas.
Read more

Grand Canyon North Rim (pass by)

Continue along the North Rim, where higher elevation, cooler temperatures and thicker forests create a very different landscape and habitat compared to the arid South Rim, supporting plant and animal communities unique to this side of the canyon.
Read more

Grand Canyon South Rim (pass by)

Turn back toward the South Rim via the Dragon Corridor, one of the widest and deepest sections of the canyon, where sweeping rock walls and layered colors offer some of the most spectacular photo opportunities before you follow the rim back toward Tusayan and the terminal.
