Description

Fly where few have walked. This 30-mile helicopter tour takes you deep into Sedona’s Boynton and Long Canyons, revealing ancient Sinagua ruins hidden from hikers. It’s history, altitude, and awe—all in one ride.

This isn’t your average sightseeing flight—it’s a rare glimpse into Sedona’s ancient soul. As your helicopter lifts off from the Sedona Airport, the red rock horizon unfolds beneath you. Within minutes, you’re soaring over Boynton and Long Canyons, where the remains of Sinagua cliff dwellings cling to the rock face, untouched by time and inaccessible by foot.

Your pilot guides you through 30 miles of rugged terrain, pointing out iconic formations like Cathedral Rock and hidden ruins that most visitors never see. The aircraft slows for key moments, giving you time to absorb the scale and silence of these sacred spaces. With all forward-facing seats and air conditioning, comfort is built in—whether you’re a first-time flyer or a seasoned traveler.

This tour is ideal for those who want to experience Sedona’s history without the strain of hiking. It’s immersive, intimate, and visually stunning. From the thrill of liftoff to the quiet reverence of ancient architecture, every minute is designed to leave you breathless—in the best way.
