We
booked our Grand Canyon trip from a ticket shop on the Las Vegas strip; to be
honest it was so overwhelming. There are so many options available; trips
to the Canyon by coach, trips by plane and several different trips by
helicopter, with varying types of helicopter, wow so many choices we did not
know what to do.
We
went to several outlets selling tours and decided on the one next to the M&M
store. We chose Maverick Tours as the helicopter had
panoramic views, comfy leather seats, and interactive headsets. The only
downfall was we had to be up a 5 am for our 5.30 pick-up aghhh.
Pick
up and boarding our helicopter was very organised, we had 3 fellow passengers
all lovely people, we set off into the sunset to the theme tune of the
magnificent seven. If you had told me this would have happened before I would
have said how corny, but it was breathtaking, setting off into the sunrise.
We
were told by our pilot that we would not be able to communicate through our
headsets, until we were in the air and had airport clearance. One we had
clearance and was able to speak, Joe said loud and clear, "Jack's a
lady" that broke the ice a tad. Jack Did not seem to find it that funny!
