We'll start the tour flying over the Kaibab National Forest, before entering the Grand Canyon and Dragon Corridor.
We'll fly over the Colorado River towards the northern border of the Grand Canyon, one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World. From the helicopter, you'll be able to admire the panoramic views of the Tower of Ra and Vishnu Schist.
