Fly Me Away! - We had a free morning during our Utah trip and wanted to try something a little off the beaten path. After some searching, we came across Zion Helicopter Tours—and we’re so glad we did!
Neither of us had ever been on a helicopter before, but we figured it would be an unforgettable way to see parts of the landscape that you just can’t reach on foot. And wow, it absolutely delivered. We took the 35-mile tour and were blown away by the incredible views from above.
The whole experience was smooth, exciting, and totally unforgettable. We’re officially hooked—already talking about doing more flights here and at other locations. Consider us copter junkies now!

Exciting ride - Pilot was great. He swooped in on all areas of interest. Great photos. I have been on helicopter rides in Grand Canyon, the Big Island, Maui and Destin. This pilot was the best.

Outstanding experience - The tour was incredible. We loved it. Captain Kyle was superb. He made sure everyone felt safe and kept us informed. He explained things well. Knowing what we were seeing made it even more interesting. The views were beautiful. The checkin was smooth, the safety instructions clear and the tour exceeded all my expectations. We really appreciated Captain Kyle’s efforts to make each one of us feel comfortable and enjoy the ride. I would highly recommend this tour.

Amazing and must do experience for Zion! - This is a must do experience for visiting Zion and if I could I would do it all over again.
The whole team is amazing. And the pilot Kyle caught the hint and put up red bone from guardians of the Galaxy. Cruising across the cliffs, taking it in. I hope the memory doesn't fade and we feel blessed having experienced this. You won't regret it if you don't regret living life to the fullest!
Thx again Kyle, you are awesome!
