Grand Canyon Day Trip

Visit the Grand Canyon in style!

The Grand Canyon is hours away by car or bus but only 90 minutes by helicopter. Join Flying M Air for a memorable day trip to this exciting destination. Leave Phoenix after breakfast and return in time for dinner!

Visit one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World. Your flight from the Phoenix area takes you over ancient ruins near Lake Pleasant, up Black Canyon, past the mountainside ghost town of Jerome, and through beautiful Sycamore Canyon before landing at Grand Canyon Airport. Your pilot will escort you into the park where you’ll be on your own for up to 4 hours to walk along the rim, visit view points by free shuttle bus, or hike on one of the canyon’s many trails. Have lunch, walk around historic Grand Canyon Village, admire the architecture of El Tovar, Hopi House, and other historic landmarks, and shop at some of the gift shops. Your flight back to the Phoenix area includes a red rocks tour of Sedona with the late afternoon light bringing out the vibrant colors of the rock formations.
