Shared 50 Min Helicopter Tour- Sedona’s Mogollon Rim/Colorado Plateau Aerial Experience (Up to 6)
Description
Why hike for hours when you can see it all from the sky? In just 50 unforgettable minutes, you’ll soar 80 miles across Sedona’s most remote and breathtaking wilderness.
Your adventure begins at Sedona Airport, where you’ll settle into a sleek helicopter equipped with forward-facing seats and noise-reducing headsets. As the rotors lift you smoothly into the air, Bell Rock and Cathedral Rock fall away beneath you, and the true vastness of Sedona begins to unfold.
Ahead lies a landscape few visitors ever witness.
You’ll fly deep over Sycamore Canyon, one of Arizona’s largest and most dramatic canyons, where sheer walls drop into rugged green valleys. Secret Mountain rises in sculpted layers, and the vast expanse of the Munds Mountain Wilderness stretches beyond the horizon. From above, the scale is staggering.
As your pilot banks gently through narrow sandstone corridors, you’ll feel the thrill of weaving between towering rock formations carved by ancient waters. Look closely and you may spot mule deer moving below and cliffside Sinagua dwellings tucked into ochre canyon walls, preserved for centuries and unreachable by foot.
At key moments, the aircraft slows, giving you uninterrupted time to capture sweeping photos and absorb the silence of this hidden terrain. Throughout the journey, live narration connects the geology, wildlife, and ancestral history into a story that unfolds beneath your window.
Inside the climate-controlled cabin, you stay cool and comfortable as sunlight shifts across pinnacles and canyon ridges. In less than an hour, you’ll cover terrain that would take days to explore on foot, without dusty boots or steep switchbacks.
Whether you’re chasing golden-hour photography, seeking hidden history, or simply craving an unforgettable perspective, this small-group experience (maximum six passengers) delivers front-row access to Sedona’s most remote beauty.
You’ll land back at Sedona Airport with a camera full of images and the distinct feeling that you’ve seen a side of Sedona most travelers never will.
