Shared Helicopter Scenic Tour- 20 Min Ancient Sedona Ruins Aerial Experience (Up to 6)

Want to see a side of Sedona almost no one else can reach? This 30-mile helicopter tour takes you beyond the trails and into landscapes few have ever witnessed.

From the moment you lift off from Sedona Airport, the red rock horizon opens beneath you in sweeping layers of color and shadow. As the helicopter climbs, the noise of town fades away, replaced by vast canyon country stretching in every direction.

Within minutes, you’re soaring deep into Boynton Canyon and Long Canyon, flying over terrain inaccessible by foot. Along the canyon walls, you’ll spot ancient Sinagua cliff dwellings tucked into the rock, centuries-old structures hidden from hikers and preserved by their isolation. From above, you can truly appreciate their scale, placement, and the ingenuity of the people who once lived there.

Your pilot guides you across 30 miles of dramatic landscape, pointing out sacred sites, geological formations, and iconic landmarks like Cathedral Rock along the way. When you approach the ruins and key viewpoints, the aircraft slows, giving you time to take photos, absorb the silence, and fully experience the magnitude of what you’re seeing.

Inside the helicopter, forward-facing seats and climate control ensure you stay comfortable and focused on the views. Whether it’s your first flight or your tenth, the sensation of hovering above ancient architecture carved into sandstone cliffs never loses its impact.

This experience is perfect if you want to explore Sedona’s history without strenuous hiking or if you simply crave access to places most visitors will never reach. It’s immersive, intimate, and deeply memorable.

From liftoff to landing, you won’t just see Sedona, you’ll witness its ancient story from the sky.
