One thing I didn't like though was that they told us where to sit. They split me up from my group and told me to sit in the back with a couple. I think the views from the back are not as cool.

If I remember correctly, they advertise a 10-12 minute experience. So I'm not sure if they include the time it takes for everyone to buckle up and get ready but I was disappointed with how short it was.

Grand Canyon Experience by TOUR Bus…read more July 20, 2021 a day to remember for my wife Sofie and I. We took the bus tour from Las Vegas to the Grand Canyon and it had to have been the highlight of our vacation. The bus driver, Ron and Guide Charlie were so accommodating I'm not sure what else they could have done to make the trip more comfortable for all 51 persons on board. The views were beautiful and majestic to witness such a wonder of GOD's creation. Charlie and Ron worked so well together from the moment we left the hotel all throughout the trip. I want to sincerely thank them both for their kindness and hospitality, may the good Lord Bless both of you as you continue working these daily tours. If you travel to Las Vegas and wanna Get away, go see Charlie and Ron. Tell em you read this review and your ready to go, thank you Ric & Sofie 2021....

Unfortunately, our experience aligns with several others. Often times, only people frustrated with…read moresomething will bother to write a negative review, but those with a positive (or expected) experience will not write a review. So it always tends to be skewed and you have to take reviews with a grain of salt, so I was hopeful that would be the case for us and we wouldn't experience the problems that others have. Just as several others have mentioned here, our flight was cancelled the day of, after we arrived. We booked SEVEN months in advance, paid in full ~ $1200 for family of four. We arrive 30 minutes prior as instructed. They tell us, sorry, we have mechanical issues, so you are cancelled. They say, we tried to call you (we received no call because, guess what, cell service is not the best around the south rim of the grand canyon...). We said, we have seen at least 4 helicopters flying, how about canceling someone else, how do you select? Did everybody else here book 7+ months ago? Who is prioritized? The reality is they overbooked, and because we paid 7 months previous, we paid less (I looked, their prices went up since we had booked). So I guess we were the easy choice to cancel... They offered to rebook the next day, yet they know that nearly nobody can accomodate this, so it is a hollow offer where they know they can "do their part to try to rectify", but also know that nearly everybody would then just cancel, and the problem takes care of itself. Great business model... Everybody that is going to book a helicopter trip over the grand canyon is there on vacation, and nobody is staying anywhere near grand canyon village or the location of this airport. It is an hour drive just from Williams and the main road, one way. Anyone who books this is driving in from Sedona or Vegas or Phoenix for a half/one day trip, and vacation days/time is precious. Its not as though you can just go do something else nearby and wait until the next day... We had one window of time planned, and the time of this flight was it. I suppose that is why they do not really care about customer service, or screwing someone last minute. Its not like they are planning for repeat customers really... Kids were beyond disappointed. The build-up and excitement, only to be completely let down last minute. They cried as we were walking out and leaving because the talk of the helicopter ride was happening for months prior. And now to the refund. The girl at the counter said the refund would take 7-10 days. Ok, thats typical, whatever. 12 days goes by, no refund. E-mail and call. They respond and say that, because its been more then 6 months, we cannot refund back to your card. We can either ACH (and attached a form) or send a check. I respond to tell then to send a check. Who in their right mind is going to provide their bank account number and routing number into a microsoft word file and e-mail it back? Fast forward ~ 21 days. Still no check. So send another e-mail (haven't called yet because that is a whole other experience...). I receive and e-mail back, not a response to my e-mail, but a carbon copy of the first one sent 9 days prior saying I can use ACH or check. Um, huh? So here we are now, still no refund. Fortunately, since we were heading to Vegas that day (was supposed to be right after our helicopter flight), we booked with Maverick for a helicopter flight over Las Vegas the next day. $450 for family of four, and the experience was excellent all around. I'd recommend Maverick, and avoid this company.

Our…read morepilot got us up in the air and back down safely, and we were able to take in some incredible views of the Las Vegas Strip and surrounding area. That said, the views weren't dramatically different from what you might see flying over Vegas in an airplane. The helicopter definitely gives you a closer and more unique perspective, but I wouldn't say it completely blew me away. Was it worth it? I'd say yes, it's definitely worth trying at least once, especially if you've never been on a helicopter before. However, the views of Vegas themselves were a bit underwhelming for me. Maybe I've just been to Vegas too many times, but the scenery didn't have the same wow factor that others might experience on their first visit. Overall, it was a fun bucket-list experience, and I'm glad I did it, even if it's probably not something I'd rush to do again.

But It's really an amazing spot with wonderful people if you have the time and money.

Well damn, Jackie! I can't control the weather…read more I scheduled a night time tour of the Las Vegas Strip by helicopter. I bought the flight through Groupon. I called to schedule my flight about two weeks out. The goal was to fly on a Saturday evening. They had a 10:15 slot open. I showed up well in advance. The place was busy but the staff were friendly and inviting. They were also open and honest that they were running behind a bit. No worries. I'm there to enjoy myself and that I shall. Skyline has a good lobby area with a game room, water, coffee, vending machines. They even have massage chairs for a small fee. And some music playing that took me back to high school and early college days made this a reasonable place to spend the evening. Then nature happened. Out of nowhere there came a flash of lightning less than a mile away from the airport. That put everything into a holding patter. No flights out for at least the next hour. 30 minutes later it was raining hard and the wind was gusting. The crew called it. It was too dangerous to be flying. So I got rescheduled for the next day, Sunday, at 9:45. Fast forward to Sunday, the weather was much better. The place was much less crowded. Flights were almost on time. As I sat waiting for my flight I struck up a conversation with another single flyer. We would end up flying together. So now I have a new friend, Tina. She covered the photo package. I covered the tip. A fair trade. Trevor, our pilot, gave us a rundown of what to expect. Some bumps here and there. Where we were turning. A bit about what we were seeing. As I local I chimed in and pointed out UNLV. There wasn't much needless chatter between any of us but Trevor was spot on as to where we would expect turbulance. None of it was that bad but very much different than what you feel in a fixed wing plane. Helicopters tend to sway a bit and bounce like someone jumping in an elevator. A strange feeling but not terrible on the night I flew. Soon (too soon) we were back on the ground. The adventure over. An experience to remember for sure. I've been in most things that fly over the years. This was one of final things left. Not much more to fly in now. I am grateful to the crew at Skyline Helicopters for experience, the ease of scheduling, the concern for crew and passenger safety, and most of all their stellar customer service. Sure, this wasn't exactly a smooth and perfect experience but they can't control the weather. They did their best and were up front when things went south. Good on them.

The setup in their lobby is awesome they have free games as well as vending machines with snacks and drinks and free coffee and hot cocoa and a tv as well, the staff is super nice and our pilot was outstanding!

The attention to safety and detail made it all worth it and how kind the staff was! I had an amazing memorable experience I can't wait to do this again but doors off this time!

Ever since I first found out about Sky Combat Ace, it had been sitting firmly on my bucket list…read more Years ago, I even bought myself a gift certificate for their San Diego location, but that location unfortunately closed - apparently because inconsistent weather kept causing flight cancellations. I had made several trips to Las Vegas since then, but somehow never managed to fit it in. Until this past weekend. The staff was helpful and proactive in locating my reservation from years ago, transferring everything into their newer system, and getting my appointment handled without any drama. They even honored the package pricing from then... I booked the first flight of the morning, which turned out to be the perfect choice in the Vegas heat. There was no crowd, no rush, and the weather was great. The experience itself was an absolute blast and did not disappoint. I was grinning cheek to cheek the entire time. After seeing the video, my family and friends said I looked more hyped than scared. Granted, I have done tandem paragliding, heli-skiing, bungee jumping from what was then the world's highest jump in Queenstown, and tandem skydiving more than once. Still, this was completely different, and easily one of the most memorable experiences I have ever had. My pilot was Christian, and he was professional, friendly, helpful, and incredibly encouraging. I took the stick for five maneuvers: an aileron roll, barrel roll, loop, hammerhead, and tail slide. Yes, I was basically LARPing as a stunt pilot, and I loved every second of it. I also added the Advanced Maneuvers and Bombing Run packages for $150 each. We even did an 8G turn! After experiencing that, I have a whole new appreciation for the high-G climb scene in Top Gun: Maverick. It looks cool on a screen, but feeling that force against your entire body is something else. I also opted for the $299 Editors add-on, which gives me the raw video files. After editing the footage with a couple of the well-known Top Gun scores, using the anthem for the maneuvers where I had the controls and, of course, "Danger Zone" for the advanced maneuvers and bombing run. I ended up wanting to watch Maverick all over again! Instead of posting mostly photos with this review, I decided the videos would tell the story much better. This is absolutely a must-do experience, especially for anyone who has ever dreamed of flying aerobatics or wondered what it feels like to be inside one of those crazy movie maneuvers. Right now, this easily ranks as one of my most memorable adventures. Five stars, all the way.

Before you spend thousands of dollars with Sky Combat Ace, read this review. I strongly advise…read moreanyone considering this experience to think twice. I spent over $5,500 on what was supposed to be a once-in-a-lifetime 50th birthday gift and walked away feeling that the reality fell far short of the premium image the company promotes. I don't normally leave reviews like this, but after everything that happened, I think future customers deserve to know what my experience was actually like. The first red flag was the pre-flight briefing. I expected some level of personal interaction, an opportunity to ask questions, and proper preparation before getting into an aerobatic aircraft. Instead, I was shown a short video and essentially left on my own. For an experience costing thousands of dollars, it felt surprisingly impersonal. After that, photos were taken with the aircraft and pilot. When I finally received them, several were noticeably out of focus. That may sound like a small detail, but when you're paying premium prices for a premium experience, these details matter. I also paid approximately $500 extra for the highest-level video and telemetry package. One of the telemetry displays included in the footage is the G-force indicator, which should be one of the most interesting parts of an aerobatic flight recording. Unfortunately, throughout the video, the G-meter does not appear to function correctly and never provides meaningful data. Paying extra for advanced telemetry and then receiving footage with a non-functioning G-force display was extremely disappointing. During the flight, I became airsick and the experience had to be cut short. I fully understand that safety comes first and I do not blame the pilot for returning early. However, I did ask whether any partial refund, credit, or accommodation was available since a significant portion of the experience was not completed. The answer was simply no. What frustrated me even more was everything that happened afterward. I waited more than two weeks for the photos and videos I had already paid for. During that time, I had to call multiple times just to get updates. Communication was poor, and it often felt as though nobody really cared once the payment had been collected. When the files were finally delivered, some of the download links didn't even work at first, leading to more delays and more follow-up on my end. What bothers me most is not that mistakes happened. Any company can have delays or technical issues. What bothered me was the overall lack of attention to the customer experience from start to finish. For more than $5,500, I expected a professional briefing, high-quality media, working telemetry, timely delivery, and responsive customer service. Instead, I received a minimal briefing, delayed media delivery, broken download links, several unusable photos, a malfunctioning telemetry feature in a paid premium package, and little interest in addressing legitimate concerns afterward. This was a gift for my 50th birthday. It was supposed to be one of the highlights of a milestone celebration. Instead, it became one of the most disappointing customer experiences I can remember. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend Sky Combat Ace, especially at the price they charge.

Anyways, he gave the right amount of commentary and spoke clearly. Stops were well space for stretching, snacks and restrooms. There was also a stop at Seligman where the inspiration for Disney Pixar Cars came about. The Grand Canyon itself is breathtaking. We skipped the guided portion and walked the rim trail from Mather Point to Bright Angel, but if you're someone who tends to lose track of time, gets easily distracted, gets lost, or struggles with planning, you're probably better off going with the the guided tour.
