Helicopter Tour To The Grand Canyon

As part of our visit we made a visit to the West Rim of the Grand Canyon

We booked a helicopter tour through Maverick Helicopters

From the flight to the champagne toast on the floor of the Canyon, it was utterly fantastic!

The following photos document the experience
