Once in a Lifetime

Today my wife and two sons (6 and 9) enjoyed a day we will never forget. Obviously the views were incredible, but just as important, so were the the folks at Papillon. It really felt like we were getting the "royal treatment". The staff is very helpful and knowledgeable and I would strongly recommend joining them for one of their helicopter tours. Here is my simple advice to make the day special. Wear a good pair of shoes (don't want unstable footing when standing next to a 4000 foot drop), bring some water to drink (we each had a 700ml bottle) as it can get pretty hot down in the canyon and take LOTS of pictures. My wife took well over 100 (so bring extra batteries too:)!!
Hope this helps you make your decision.

It was a lifetime experience. It was fantastic to make the helicopter ride above the Canyon. The view was amazing. It took my breath away. The music made this tour complete. While flying above the Grand Canyon, we heared music through our headphones. So do what we did, book yourself a helicopter tour. You won't be sorry!
EXTRA INFORMATION:
Directions: Just off Highway 64, inside the North Entrance of the Grand Canyon Airport. The company is named Papilion Grand Canyon Helicopters.

We were a total of five in the helicopter. I got the seat next to the pilot. We all got a pair of big headphones. They played this mysterious music so you got in the perfect mood! It was very exciting and the first time I flew in an helicopter! A must! First we flew over the trees, but when we flew out over the big cliffs, you almost lost your breath!!
