We absolutely loved every second of our flight to the Grand Canyon and back. Maverick was professional and our pilot was full of information about the places we were flying over. We would definitely go again!

The Helicopter flight was overall an extraordinary experience for our Family. After the greeting and introduction by the Pilot we started on a 1 h flight over the Forest entering the Grand Canyon over the South rim. The Pilot gave us a lot of additional Infos over the Area. We can recommend Maverick!

Captain Nick was great! Our entire family of 6 loved our tour of Molokai. We had two kids with us and Maverick gave extra consideration to ensure they could see and were comfortable. This was definitely the highlight of our trip. We can’t wait to do it again and see a different part of the island!

Had a wonderful time flying with Maverick helicopters. The Pilot was very informative, polite and helpful. I’ve never experienced a helicopter flight before. But after flying with Maverick helicopters, I can’t wait to do it again.
We flew over hoover dam and landed in Grand Canyon for snacks and a drink. Choice of water, soft drinks or champagne. Then refuelled and back over Vegas strip. I would highly recommend this company. Thank you.

This helicopter flight over the Grand Canyon was a lifetime dream for my wife. To say it was emotional, incredible and beautiful does not do it justice. Tears of happiness were shed at take off and upon landing. Drew was an exceptional pilot and guide. I would highly recommend Maverick. Great company and lovely people.
