Grand Canyon West Rim Experiences with Wild West Helicopters

Safety

The enjoyment of your flight experience and your safety are our main priorities. Our pilots are experienced and have extensive local area knowledge. The Wild West Helicopters ownership has been operating and maintaining helicopter fleets for over 25 years and follows all safety regulations.

Weather

Our flights are subject to favorable weather conditions. The weather can change rapidly in the Canyon and surrounding area; the pilot/guide has the right to cut a trip short due to weather-related concerns. Unless specified, most of our tours may be changed or canceled without penalty up to 48 hours prior to departure subject to availability. Based on the latest aviation weather forecasts and responsible pilot decision making, it is ultimately up to the pilot in command whether to cancel the flight or not.

Cancellation Policy

If canceled due to poor weather, you will be given the option of an alternative date or full refund. You may reschedule at a time and day convenient for you if it does not conflict with an existing booking. Operating times must fall within daylight hours — up to 20 minutes prior to sunrise and up to 10 minutes after sunset. Please note the state of Arizona does not use Daylight Saving Time (DST). Please check to ensure you are aware of the time in Arizona on the day of your adventure. Confirmation is received at the time of booking unless booked within one day of travel. In this case, a confirmation will be received as soon as possible, subject to availability.
