Apex Air Tours Awesome Factor = 100% on every level! From the moment you engage Talia & Conner in the office upon arrival to the moment you touch down after a breath-taking and informative flight with Steve, the experience with Apex Air Tours is everything you could hope for! I’ve been fortunate enough to have taken several helicopter tours in various locations domestically and internationally and this organization is top-notch! I originally booked the Ancient Sedona tour then upgraded at the last moment to the Secret Wilderness tour. We had a 9:20am flight with perfect flying conditions in a beautiful helicopter on the Secret Wilderness tour. My adult son and I sat in the rear outside seats which had ample room and fantastic views while an elderly couple occupied the two front seats. Kudos to Conner and Steve for patiently helping the elderly gentleman take his seat and ensuring their comfort. Background music complemented our pilot Steves educational narration of the rock formations, indigenous structures, and the general area in view. Steves dialogue with passengers wasn’t chatty and focused on the experience at hand. The flight pattern was thoughtful and allowed the beauty of Sedona to present itself with dramatic effect. During the flight Steve would pause and/or position the helicopter during certain moments to ensure all passengers could observe things that warranted more than a pass-by. Steves occasional banking and changes in elevation were forewarned and just dramatic enough to add to the experience of being in a helicopter and feel safe. If you’re remotely considering a helicopter tour in Sedona, make it happen with Apex. So glad this was my sons first helicopter flight and I got to share it with him. Thank you Team Apex!
Great experience! The pilot, Steve, was experienced and showed us the amazing spots in Sedona! Easy to book and find them at the Sedona Airport! Conor was so friendly! He gave us the safety briefing and was great driving us to and from the pad while telling us fun facts about the area.
What an amazing experience! I have traveled all over the world, am a licensed skydiver and have hiked to exotic locations but taking a helicopter through those rocks was hard to describe. I would recommend it to anyone going to Sedona.
Everything was soo perfect from start to finish. They make it very comfortable and unforgettable. Would recommend to anyone visiting or living in the Sedona area!!
There were 4 of us on the helicopter with our guide, Josh. He was amazing and so was the trip/scenery! I've been to Sedona many times and finally got to do this ride. Worth every penny!
MUST DO! Tali was professional, pleasant and patient with aging members of our party. Gave us extra care with dignity. Steve, our pilot was a rock star. Professional, SKILLED and personable. He put us on several caves way up the cliffs. His flight was safe and FUN!
Steve was a great pilot. Great service. My experience was outstanding. The views were amazing and I had a great time filming thos trip.
One-of-a-kind access to stunning natural beauty and cultural heritage. Apex is a professional operation. Steve is a skillful and knowledgeable pilot, great guide. We paid more to sit in the front - highly recommend. The whole experience is worth the splurge if you can swing it. Mesa Grill across the parking lot is convenient lunch spot before or after, with sweeping views of the mountains.
Went on this tour for a Birthday Celebration and it did not disappoint. Steve was a great pilot and we appreciated his music during the tour as his extensive knowledge of the area .Tali was also very helpful and provided us transportation to and from the airport from their office. We will absolutely recommend Apex tours again.
What an amazing 30 minutes of shear delight! The office staff was amazing, organized & friendly. But Josh, our "MAVERICK PILOT" was phenominal & an expert flying above the tree lines & through the canyons! I would do this trip again in a heart beat!
Wonderful experience Steve the best pilot ever, we went right into the canyons and flew so close to the rocks it was amazing thanh you so much. Felt so safe 👍🏻
Conner was courteous, answered our pre-flight questions and ensured we followed safety protocols. Our pilot, Steve, was great. He made sure we knew exactly where to look before arriving to points of interest and shared information all along the tour. Helicopter tour covered similar areas that couldn't be visited due to Federal shutdown.
Great tour and great guide. Saw places that are truly beautiful. My kids wanted to go again right after. Will definitely book this again.
What a great time we had today on our flight with Apex Air. The flight was super smooth and the scenery was spectacular. Would definitely do this again.
First time doing a helicopter tour. Best experience ever! I would definitely do this trip again. It gives a person the ultimate appreciation for Sedona.
The mountains & canyons were up close & beautiful! There was blue skies & white clouds. The pilot was instructive as he shared what each mountain was called. He let us know when we were going into a canyon as he gently took us in. This was a wonderful 20 minute experience!
This is a great chance to get up close and personal with Sedona! You get to see a lot of the famous rocks and get a better idea of what's in the area! Super knowledgeable guides who will make sure you get the best view!
What an amazing way to create core memories with your family! I’m so glad I booked this tour and shared this incredible experience with my sons. Steve, our pilot, was professional, experienced, and more importantly made me feel safe. He took the time to interact with us and made sure we were comfortable. He even had a nice cold bottle of water waiting for me! The flight was breathtaking!! It really was. Going through the canyon was a once in a lifetime experience. It was astonishing seeing the tops of these magnificent mountains. I would never have imagined being so close to them. My boys really enjoyed seeing the historical homes! A huge highlight for me was Steve’s playlist. Route 66 was a genius song to end our tour with! Unforgettable. Highly recommend this tour.
The views were awesome and great for photo-shooting! We loved our pilot, Steve because of his personality, knowledge, and professionalism. We felt totally safe under his care. His assistant, Connor was very informative and efficient, getting us to the launch site and making sure we understood all of the safety rules.
Absolutely superb experience. Stunningly beautiful scenery and views. Smooth, comfortable ride. I only wish it had been longer! I would love to have gone around again.
Very easy to book. Great communication. Pilot Jeff was great. He was informative and also very relatable and easy going. Well worth the money.
This was an amazing experience!!! We loved every minute of it. This company and their entire staff were all extremely professional, friendly and put our safety as their top priority. My husband and I absolutely loved every minute! Wish it was longer, but only because we loved it so much!! We got to see EVERYTHING from the sky (all the major rock formations); which for me was a huge blessing, bc otherwise it would not have been possible due to my back injury and being disabled from it. The price was perfect, and the pilot was very good & very knowledgeable. LOVED IT!!!
Great way to see the rock formations and learn some history. Our pilot was very informative and a great pilot! Check in process was very easy and the staff very friendly.
Took this tour and it was amazing! The views from the sky are beautiful. I will take you to many areas not accessible by car or hike. Tour was on time. Pilot was knowledgeable, friendly and professional. Highly recommend!
Highly recommend one of these tours. Underestimated what we would see and those are some super nice helicopters!!! Josh, our pilot/guide, was entertaining and knowledgeable. Thank you! I’m local and saw some new stuff to explore
Wonderful experience. The pilot was very kind, humble and made us feel very safe. The driver that brings you out to the helium was very kind and informative. Felt very safe and excellent service.
The ride was vey smooth and the owner/pilot was fantastic. It was an great experience. You really get views that you don’t get from the ground
Woooooow!!! Breathe taking and just a magical experience! Was a quick trip. It think it was good for my first time. Do it!!! Also love supporting a local family they were so nice
Joshua was great, very knowledgeable about the area. I had three children (ages 3, 8, 16) with me and Joshua was very accommodating, especially with the kids, he made the trip very enjoyable for them!!!! The kids really enjoyed him and the flight.
We were absolutely in awe of our experience with this ride. An incredible way to experience Sedona. Great pilot and grou d support. Thank uou!
Outstanding tour and great pilot, highly recommended. Easy ride, very enjoyable, great views, highly knowledgeable pilot. A must do in Sedona.
Not too often that you get go a helicopter ride I recommend people go on the longer rides at least 45 minutes it is worth your money.
Easy, casual check-in process with clear instructions leading up to the flight. Pilot was very professional, welcoming, and puts any nerves to ease right away. Helicopter is not your tourist version which made my wife feel better. It's large and comfortable. The tour itself was AMAZING! As our first heli ride it was unnerving at first but the views quickly took that feeling away. This was an experience of a life time. If you have the means, don't question it and just do it. You can't get these views hiking
Five star tour! Our pilot was very professional and gave us a wealth of knowledge about the areas we flew over. 👍🏻👍🏻
Amazing!! This chopper had all forward facing seats, not a bad view from any seat! Beautiful views, we loved it! Definitely a must. Our pilot was great!
What a great experience! Recommend this way to see Sedona very highly! The pilot was courteous, pointed out rock formations and ancient ruins! A+++
My family is able to enjoy the magnificent and powerful scenery from the sky with kind and polite explanations of many tourist spots. This view from the sky cannot be enjoyed on the ground. I definitely recommend it. The pilot gave a very kind explanation and operated the helicopter( great pilot!!), and the whole family including children really enjoyed it with peace of mind.
The entire experience was wonderful! Our pilot Joshua did a great job and educated us about Sedona. Highly recommend for pairs of twos!
Wow. What an experience. We travel a lot and I've been on dozens of helicopter rides but this was by far the best. The pilot was extremely good and our safety and comfort clearly came first. He showed us things that were only visible by air and knew just about everything there is to know about the local terrain. This is an unforgettable experience and you won't regret it. On a side note their aircraft is one of the more spacious and comfortable ones available which makes a big difference...
