Great trip to the awe inspiring Grand Canyone. We were picked up from our hotel on time and taken to the airport (20mins from the strip), and checked in with no issues.
Nice cafe area for waiting. We were then taken to the plane. Annoyingly we were told we weren’t allowed any liquids when we booked (as per aeroplane rules) however this was not the case - so we didn’t have any water or suncream with us.
The pilots were very friendly and helpful. The plane was comfy and had great view all the way there and back. Once we got there we visited the Canyon on the trolly bus tour, with was great and a really knowledgeable guide. Lunch was provided, which was tasty and large. However, my wife is vegetarian and there was no sandwich option for her ...
After the tour we were back in LV by 2.30 - much better then being stuck on a bus all day!

I have been to Las Vegas several times, but I have never had time to make it out to the Grand Canyon. This time, my husband and I decided to splurge and book the Canyon Dream tour. It was well worth the cost and an amazing experience! The price of trip could be justified alone by how well our time was spent! Maverick Airlines is truly top notch. Every aspect of our tour was well thought out and planned to a tee. We felt that not one minute of our time was wasted. We were picked up at our hotel around 12:45 and shuttled to the airport. After getting everyone in our group checked in and assigned seats, we boarded the plane for a fantastic flight out to the canyon. After deboarding the plane and taking a quick trolley ride to the heli pads, we were promptly loaded into our helicopter for our flight into and around the canyon. After our fantastic heli tour, we were taken via trolley into the park for a delicious boxed lunch and about an hour of free time at Bright Angel Lodge. We were then taken back to our plane for our flight back to Vegas. We arrived back at our hotel by 8:00 pm with plenty of time to meet up with friends and grab dinner! All the pilots, tour guides, and other Maverick staff were very professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and conversational. By choosing this tour, we got a quick and scenic trip to the canyon and back vs. spending most of the day on the road. Our entrance to the park was streamlined vs. paying the park entrance fees, waiting in line at the entrance, figuring out navigating the park, and finding parking if we had driven ourselves. The South Rim provided fantastic viewpoints while avoiding the more crowded/touristy areas of the park. My husband’s parents travelled to the park on a bus tour the same day we did, and while they spent less money, they left early in the morning and did not arrive back to their hotel until 18 hours later. If you want to maximize the use of your time and still have plenty of time to enjoy your morning and evening in Vegas, I cannot recommend Maverick Airlines enough!

When in Vegas, a Grand Canyon tour is a must. As we only had a couple of days, we took a flight and tour with Maverick. We had good views of the canyon on the flight and the tour bus driver was very knowledgeable. The kids enjoyed the views and after seeing the canyon firsthand, now appreciate how big it is. Flying 45 mins beats the long drive there and back. A recommended tour.

What a fantastic experience! From start to finish the booking was slick. Picked up from a hotel next door. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Travis our pilot was brilliant. A truly memorable experience. On return to the hotel I realised that I’d lost my sunglasses. I emailed the company and within 2 hours they’d been located and returned to me. What fantastic customer service. Highly recommend company and staff

Don’t eat the food at Guano point. My son got food poisoning. Rest of trip very good . Pilot was excellent. Views were great . Aeroplane was very good too. Repeat: don’t eat the food at Guano point. You might live to regret it. Or you might not live at all.

We had such a great experience from the online booking, to being contacted in advance with excellent options when our flight package was under-booked. The flight's seating was way more comfortable than commercial coach. The pick-up from the hotel - spot on. A/C driving to Henderson. Pilots were terrific and informative. Lastly Bruce on the trolley at the South rim was a riot and informative. We even got lucky to see an Elk.

Picked this trip after a lot of research and very glad we did. I had always wanted to see the Grand Canyon and the South Rim did not disappoint. The canyon has to be seen to be believed.
The team at Maverick were great. Everything was well run from pick up to drop off back at the hotel and it all felt very safe. My wife was very nervous about the flight but loved the whole experience. The pilots were friendly and reassuring and there was some interesting in flight commentary.
We didn't take the helicopter option and so had a couple of hours in total in a couple of spots on the South Rim. The views are spectacular and change gradually as you walk, but it is gentle stroll along the rim and there is no real hiking on this trip as the stops are too short and the surfaces at the two stops are for the most part smooth and even.
The only gripe we had was the lunch which featured a turkey sandwich with no options. In this day and age, it seems odd for a large outfit like this to totally ignore the possibility that some people don't eat meat.

We are so glad to hear that you chose Maverick for your Grand Canyon experience. We couldn't agree more about the canyon. You have to see it in person to appreciate its vastness — a memory of a lifetime. We also appreciate your honest feedback about the lunch and will pass that on to our quality assurance team. Kind Regards, A Maverick Team Member

We took off from the Boulder city airport. I like leaving from there you can always find parking you walk right into the terminal it’s never busy and the flight was excellent and scenic!!

We were in Las Vegas for a 2 day meeting, and had 1 'transition' day to get over the jet lag before the meeting started. In a perfect world we would have had more time to visit the Grand Canyon, but you play the cards you have, not the ones you wish you had.

Maverick is that rare thing: a tour company that runs a smooth, professional operation- without making you feel as if you are just another anonymous customer. The day was seamless: we were collected promptly from the hotel, got organized for the flight and in the air without a hitch. There were a few opportunities to spend money if you felt like it, but I was happily surprised at how low key it was- no pressure, much less of the junky stuff you often see at tourist sites, and no forced marches through the gift shop on your way in & out. Everybody on the team was knowledgeable and pleasant, and our main guide was really excellent.

The box lunch was fine - pretty much what you would expect.

I was completely wowed by the Grand Canyon experience provided by Maverick Airlines.
We were promptly collected from our hotel, and taken to the South Rim via private plane.
Upon arrival our pilot Nate, took us on a 25 minute helicopter tour of the canyon, pointing out interesting observations. We then went on a coach trip, where Michael our driver pointed out wildlife and other vegetation, he also highlighted good photographic opportunities.
Just a wonderful experience....
