| - Took wife out for her birthday. 1st time on helicopter for her as she is not only afraid of heights, but also of flying. I booked as early as possible for the best weather possible. The temp was also bearable.
Found a great deal on Groupon for three of us (including son) that also included Nathan Burton tickets. You have to go on their website to make your appointment to fly and redeem the Groupon. That was very easy and they called and confirmed within a couple hours.
On the day of, we were greeted with smiling faces of Tim and Taryn. Tim handle most of the check-in and briefing for the flight. He also loaded, unloaded, and took pic of us. (2 Stars on this service so far.)
The office itself is pretty small but lots of seating. There are lockers for your use, but no locks. There are also restrooms available. Do get here 15-20 minutes early to do administrative "stuff." Our wait was very short before our flight.
We loaded up with our pilot, Adam. He was very cordial, and put my wife at ease (I told him it was her first time and her fears.) The weather was easy to fly in, but Adam made it especially smooth with great flying skills. He pointed out scenery and kept engaged in our flight. He answered questions, and was informative.
The flight itself was GREAT! If you can, schedule the Red Rock/Strip Tour every time. It is worth the extra $, and the scenery can't be beat.
Would definitely be back and highly recommend.
