What people are saying about Arizona, USA

This tour was awesome! All the guides had very fun personalities. The balloon set up was effective and interesting to watch. Our balloon was one of the last to go up, so it was really interesting to see everyone load-up first. When we took off, everything felt safe. Our guide, Phil, appeared to be very skilled. We believe we had one of the best rides of the night. The landing was the scariest part, but it was still incredibly fun!

This was an amazing experience! True it is very expensive but for us was 100% worth it. First time on a helicopter and didn't feel nervous at all. Absolutely breathtaking views and phenomenal photo opportunities. Our pilot was very kind and made everyone feel at ease. I really can't recommend this trip enough!

Had a fantastic experience with Maverick. The Pilot was extremely knowledgeable and fun! The team at the Skywalk were also very friendly. We got to learn a lot on our day tour and got to see so many incredible views!

This truly is a must-do when visiting the canyon. The views you get are simply magnificent and unique. We had an amazing pilot which made for a great experience.

Excellent experience, would highly recommend! Our guide, Jesse, answered all questions & had a great sense of humor.
