The view was amazing and the pilot informative. However the seating was much too cramped with four people in the back and three in front. If you are tall, as we are or above normal weight I suggest looking for another company. We were uncomfortable for all of the flight. After our flight I found there were other companys that... more

MARK STANWAY, SALES MANAGER

Thank you for your feedback, we wanted to take this opportunity to let everyone know that Sundance Helicopters operates two types of aircraft. 1) Astar (lower priced for the more economy minded) 2) EC-130 (Eco-Star - 23% larger cabin) The Astar is priced lower. The EC-130 is at the time of writing $30.00 per person more. Please note that Sundance...

Well organised with limo pick up. Quick check in at nice premises. Watched a comprehensive safety video and then set off for the grand canyon. We had a female pilot who was really nice and funny and we made a pleasant trip to the canyon over Hoover Dam. Stopped for picnic lunch then returned. Limo returned us to our hotel... more

I did a lot of research about Grand Canyon tour companies from Las Vegas and decided to go with Sundance Helicopters even though they were a bit more pricey. I am so very glad we chose them because it was an absolutely amazing trip! My husband and I didn't have to worry about anything. Everyone was on time and so... more

We did the Skywalk tour with Sundance Helicopters recently, we were picked up by Limo for the short drive to their facility. There is a nice waiting room and check in procedure where you show your photo ID. We departed right on time at 10:15am, our pilot was Dan and he flew us over lake mead, Hover Dam and finally... more

A great trip, well organised and reasonably priced. We booked the Canyon trip via the Viator site, the description stated a limo would pick us up at the hotel, that we would have a helicopter trip out to the Canyon and that we would have a champagne breakfast - and thats exactly what we got. We had to share the... more

If you visit Vegas, you must see the Grand Canyon. If you visit the Grand Canyon, you must use Sundance! We did the Sunset Champagne Quest. This flies over the Hoover Dam, down to the bottom of the Grand Canyon for a quick picnic and then back over the strip at night. We were picked up at our hotel by... more

Just got back from a 4 day trip to Las Vegas. It was a surprise for my husbands 45th birthday. Had read all of the reviews prior to going and had pretty much made up my mind, but the Tour/Show Concierge at Bally's (Patrick) sealed the deal. Everything about Sundance was extremely professional with the exception of the rude limo... more

In October 2008 we used sundance to go and see the Grand Canyon. It was a fantastic trip. The cost was high but what is the point in travelling as far as we had, being as close as we were to the canyon and not going there. How glad I am that we paid the money to go with Sundance... more
