Zion Helicopters

First class outfit from A to Z. Model staff, from the smart, polite, helpful counter girls Faith and Morgan (who, BTW, should be arrested for Unlawfully Beautiful in Public), to the nice, friendly professional pilots Matt and Aaron, to the owner, Paul, who happened to be there when I landed (solo photo flight charter) and kindly assisted me out with my camera gear. I shoulda booked for 3 hours instead of only 2! Did not want it to end. These guys are great, and the helicopter flight, and scenic beauty, are of the Lifetime Bucket List-​so-​glad-​I-​done-​it quality that I can’t wait to return. Thanks guys. Highly recommend.

One of the best experiences I’ve really ever had. It’s made up for birthdays people have forgotten. Enough with my pitty party …
We booked a same day flight for 6:00PM (100 mile /​1 hr tour) and we arrived quite early as we were anxious.
We found the place perfectly as they have a big black /​red sign out front that announces «ZION HELICOPTERS» about 10 spaces out front.
The entrance is to the right, and you enter into a clean, modern and welcoming lobby. It’s definitely a top notch space to get you confident for soaring with the birds.
Faith greeted us and set us up with the proper paper work only 1 – 2 pages to read and sign. Nothing like buying a home. Aaron came and greeted us and introduced himself as the pilot and began to ready for the trip. Faith had a great and clear «safety briefing» that doesn’t resemble the ones you’ll receive on a bowing 747 and snoozing through this one is not an option!
She escorted us out to the aircraft and took a quick photo and got the front seat passenger in First and then myself in the back. No helmets used here, just super nice Bose noise canceling ear phones with a small microphone so we can all communicate. It was all so clear.
The ride itself was fantastic. It felt like nothing taking off and landing. You barely notice taking off /​landing. It’s nothing like a plane. It’s better.
Their was very little turbulence and it was mild compared to some thumps I’ve felt on my trips on big Air Bus’.
The tour was an hour and I was just glued to the window — it was incredible, breathtaking and so difficult to deny God after seeing such great beauty.
I was so impressed. We saw everything it seemed. I was so excited for the opportunity and I can call this one of the best experiences of my life. I would encourage people to do the 100 mile tour, because — when else will you have an opportunity to see such beauty from the air? It’s totally worth it to call in and ask a few questions if you have any and get booked. I can’t see any thing to lose … Enjoy!

Awesome! Professional and personal service. New helicopter to see all the spectacular views near Zion. We took the 70 mile tour and Can’t wait to go back for one of the other 7 tours they offer.

This was such an amazing experience. Having never been in a helicopter I had so much fun. We went up for an hour and saw so many beautiful sites, many of which were inaccessible by vehicle.
Our pilot (I’m sorry I forgot your name) was amazing. Very smooth and very knowledgable about the area and the different sites.
I highly recommend and I would definitely do this again.

Honestly one of the best experiences of my life. The staff was gracious and so helpful, didn’t make me nervous… Very accommodating. The facility is new and relaxing you can sit and look out at the helicopter comfortably. As for the helicopter ride… I wish I had done this sooner. I was speechless… Spellbound! Our pilot didn’t pull any risky maneuvers but the ride was thrilling. I felt like I was in heaven. Afterwards I told my boyfriend, that’s it I’m only traveling by helicopter now! LOL
If you have an opportunity to go you have to this is a must !!!

I emailed Zion Helicopters and got a quick response, which is always appreciated. I booked the 45 mile Zion Tour for my one year anniversary.
The location of the facility was really easy to find coming from Springdale. As soon as we walked in we were greeted with smiles. It was Victoria and Aaron (I believe) were the two working there and were very friendly. Victoria did a great job of explaining what we should expect as well as all the safety precautions. While Aaron was getting the helicopter ready to fly, Victoria explained all the pictures on the TV and pointed out certain areas on the map they had hanging. We were never left bored while we waited.
During the helicopter ride, Aaron was very knowledgeable of the areas we flew around and had a lot of interesting stories. He explained why the helicopter felt the way it did in certain areas of the canyon. Though I was a little bummed we couldn’t actually go into the Zion National Park area, I very much enjoyed being able to see the surrounding mesas and canyons.
I would definitely recommend Zion Helicopters if you’re visiting the area and want to see the canyons from above. The views were amazing! I also appreciated that the prices on their site were what we paid for when we got there. No hidden fees and everything on the site is explained.

Simply amazing!!! My wife and I were driving by, saw the helicopter, and were in the air in 15 minutes for the most incredible tour. Aaron was a fantastic pilot and we felt so comfortable. I would suggest this tour to anyone looking to see Utah in the best possible way! All the negative reviews posted are not the tour service, it’s cheap people looking to fly in a $ 200k machine for $ 5. This tour is priceless!!!

Entire operation was awesome, my truck broke down in the next town over while driving cross country, so we figured what better way to pass the time while it is getting fixed than take a ride? I am a helicopter pilot in the military and my friend that went with me is also a military pilot.
Staff was very polite and awesome to talk to, the pilot was very competent and we felt safe the entire flight. Definently worth the price of admission, and worth the upgrade to the longer flights.
You will not be disappointed with the sights you get to see and the local knowledge of the pilot. If I end up through there again it will definently be a stop on my list!

What an unbelievable experience! Southern Utah and Zion National Park is absolutely breathtaking from an aerial perspective, and their brand new turbine helicopter was so smooth and was even air conditioned. Our pilot Aaron was very nice and the staff was great too. Highly recommend this company.

My son and I decided to take an impromptu helicopter ride on a recent trip to SW Utah. Zion Helicopter was extremely informative and responsive. I was able to call first thing in the morning and on a helicopter before lunch. All staff members we encountered were professional and friendly. Highly recommend!

I had booked a trip two months in advance, with a deposit, and was really looking forward to the ride around Zion. Got a call a few days before the trip was scheduled and they told me they had no helicopter available! Not only did they cancel my reservation, they were unable to refund the deposit to my credit card, so I still had to drive out of my way to get the deposit back in cash.
Unbelievably poor customer service, would not recommend.

We were driving home to California after a fabulous week of hiking in Zion when we saw the sign to go on a helicopter tour staring at 30-​something dollars per person. I was apprehensive at first but my companions who were with me wanted to go so I said «YOLO» as kids these days say and went along.
IT WAS FANTASTIC! I felt perfectly safe the entire time. The pilot Aaron was friendly and informative, and we got to see the valley from an entirely new perspective. We went with the $ 60-​per-​person option for a 10 minute flight around some nearby canyons, but I definitely would have gone with the $ 200-​something-​per-​person option that takes you around the main canyons of Zion had it not been too windy to fly out that far at the time.
Thank you, Aaron, for the fabulous journey! We will definitely come and do it again next time we head to Zion.

Great Helipopter Ride! So fun I did it twice!

Loved it so much fun and the pilot was so nice out new favorite adventure we will be back !!! Love this place

My family and I were up visiting the «rest» of the family in Zion when we decided to make it a VERY memorable gathering by chartering a few flights.
I called and left a message with the Owner/​Pilot first thing in the morning only to get a call late the NEXT day. I spoke with him, left my info and our desired charter «plans» and TRUSTED he would get back to me with our schedule… NOTHING… no call or anything.
Six people (3 at a time) for one hour at $ 265ea. would have been $ 2000+ I gladly would have paid for the breathtaking experience and memories.
I was F-​ing furious because Gran-​Gran & Gramps were bummed (not much «time» left «with» us ya know) and one of us cried.
WAY TO GO ZION HELICOPTER!
