Great views of Sedona - Great views of Sedona from above but a bit pricey. The ride was very smooth. Front seat views are the best but that adds to the price.

Highly Recommend, safe and fun! - Our whole experience with Apex was terrific! Nice building, great staff, quiet helicopter, super pilot Steven who was not only a great pilot but also pointed out all the sights we wanted to see and took time to chat with us afterward. It was the perfect start to my Sedona visit!

Apex helicopter flight over Sedona Red Rocks is a “must do!” - This Apex helicopter tour was the high point of our trip to Sedona! We met at the Apex Office on Airport Mesa with a sweeping view of the Red Rock area, left on time for the 30 minute flight which was great fun and very expertly handled! The views were beyond breath taking as we saw miles of gorgeous Red Rocks & ancient Anastasi cliff dwellings! It is SO worth every penny to go! The pilot is a true expert & very friendly & knowledgeable. We plan to go again on our next trip!
