Maverick Helicopters

For over 10 years, Maverick has been operating the largest fleet of ECO-star helicopters in the world. These helicopters feature wrap around glass for outstanding visibility together with front facing theatre style leather seats, noise reduction headsets and voice activated microphones allowing everyone to interact and communicate with fellow passengers as well as the pilot. The departure terminal is located on the Las Vegas strip so you only have a short transfer from your hotel and you will enjoy a private check-in in a peaceful lounge environment. Your pilot will greet you and give a brief orientation of the helicopter and your chosen trip. With 23% larger cabin space than most helicopters flying today, this VIP level of service really is the limousine of the sky!

WIND DANCER

A ‘must do’ flight experience taking you over Lake Las Vegas, Lake Mead, Hoover Dam and the extinct volcano, Fortification Hill. You may see wildlife as you soar above the desert, so keep you eyes peeled along the way. Descend 3,500 feet below the rim and land in the Grand Canyon, alongside the Colorado River in the Hualapai Indian Territory. Within one of the great natural wonders of the world you will be served champagne, beverages and hors d’oeuvres. Finally, fly back through the canyon and witness the spectacular red rock formations. With your tour almost coming to an end you’ll enjoy a quick flight over downtown Las Vegas and ‘The Strip’ before arriving back at Maverick headquarters. Tour approximately 3.5 hours.
