The short video above walks you through the booking calendar on our secure reservation system — from opening the calendar to selecting your tour date, party size, and completing checkout. If you've never booked a helicopter tour online before, this quick tutorial takes the guesswork out of the process so you can lock in your preferred date with confidence.
The tutorial covers the full booking flow: how to find and open the interactive calendar, how to select an available date (green dates are open; greyed-out dates are sold out or unavailable), how to choose the number of passengers in your party, and how to move through the checkout steps. The video is intentionally brief — most guests complete their reservation in under five minutes once they know where to click.
Here's what to expect when you open the booking calendar:
Grand Canyon helicopter tours are popular year-round, and the most sought-after departure times — typically morning slots on weekends and holidays — fill up quickly. Booking at least one to two weeks in advance is strongly recommended, especially for travel during spring break, summer, and the Thanksgiving-to-New-Year holiday period. If your ideal date shows as sold out, check back periodically: cancellations do open spots, and the calendar updates in real time.
Guests traveling as part of a larger group (seven or more) should call us directly at 702-530-8687 to discuss group arrangements, pricing, and scheduling — the online calendar is optimized for parties of six or fewer.
Once your booking is confirmed, you'll receive an email with your reservation details, including the tour name, date, departure time, meeting location, and — for Las Vegas tours that include hotel pickup — instructions for your driver. Print or save this confirmation to your phone; your voucher number may be requested at check-in.
Las Vegas hotel pickup is complimentary on most tours and covers the Strip and surrounding resort corridor. If your hotel is outside the standard pickup zone, the confirmation email will include the nearest pickup location or instructions for driving to the departure terminal.
All tours are fully refundable with at least 72 hours' notice before your scheduled departure. Cancellations due to weather — which are always the pilot's call — receive a full refund or the option to rebook at no additional charge. To cancel or modify a reservation, use the link in your confirmation email or call our reservations line.
What if I don't see any availability on the calendar?
All visible dates on the calendar are updated in real time. If a date appears greyed out, it is either fully booked or outside the bookable window. Try checking an adjacent date or contact us by phone — we can sometimes accommodate requests that don't show as available online.
Is it safe to enter my credit card on the booking site?
Yes. The reservation system is hosted on a PCI-compliant, SSL-secured platform. Your payment information is encrypted and never stored on our servers.
Can I book for the same day?
Same-day bookings are occasionally possible, depending on availability. The calendar reflects real-time seat availability, so check for open slots or call us directly to ask about last-minute openings.
Do I need to print my confirmation?
A digital confirmation on your phone is perfectly fine. Just have your voucher number or reservation email accessible at check-in.
