This was our third ride with Apex, and it was every bit as thrilling as our first. Captain Steve was an excellent guide and pilot. Tali made sure we all knew what to expect and was very kind. And Sedona did what Sedona does: inspired and awed us with her beauty. A must- have experience!

This was an amazing tour with our pilot Steve and loader Connor. We had originally planned a balloon ride that was cancelled twice and it was actually to our benefit. The helicopter tour was informative and fun. Went thru the 2nd largest canyon in Arizona, Sycamore along with several other canyons and saw things so much closer than a balloon ride would have been. Also spotted some elk in a couple sightings .
The tour was beautiful beyond words. We got to see areas we could not have accessed otherwise. The beautiful scenery brought tears to my eyes. Our pilot Steve was amazing at maneuvering to ensure we saw many landmarks including ruins we had not known existed in the Sycamore canyon.
Wow, what a fabulous trip. Captain Steve and Connor did a super job giving us memories. Steve narrated the journey giving us the best angle for pictures and sharing some of his knowledge of the canyons. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Best helicopter experience ever! If there is any way you can mange it do the Mogollon Rim trip. Steve the pilot was excellent and we felt safe and secure. Get up close and personal with canyons, cave dwellings, mountain sides and more. Fantastic way to get a birds eye view of the surrounding Sedona area - even more fun if you have explored some of it on the ground already.
This was a thrilling experience like no other I have ever had and one that simply should not be missed in Sedona. There is no better way to see and experience the magnificent landscape, and beauty of the ancient cliff dwellings. We learned about its history and geological brilliance through a knowledgeable and experienced pilot, who at all times made us feel comfortable, welcomed and safe. The Apex team is professional, fun and friendly and should be your first choice for guiding you through the adventure of a lifetime!
We did the hour tour and our pilot really seemed to have the coolest experience nailed down. The fly over was amazing but the chance to fly through was a whole other level. Would recommend to anyone.
This is the best way to experience Sedona! The pilot and crew will make you feel at home and it is a experience you will never forget
This is by far one of the most amazing experiences I have ever experienced! There were moments when I was truly overcome by the views! I was awed and humbled! Our pilot was very competent, experienced and calm. We felt immediately at ease! He shared his knowledge and joy of the area which made the experience personal! We saw areas that we realized so many individuals would never see. I would highly recommend taking this tour. It was worth every cent! The pictures we took were amazing! However, the memories we have of all the breath taking sites will remain with us for eternity.
So glad we took the Mogollon Rim Tour. We didn't just see the red rock formations and other geological features, we were in them! Our excellent pilot took us into canyons and close enough to cliffs to see ancient. Throughout the flight our pilot guide held our interest with fascinating history and lore and took one all questions. I would urge any visitor planning an aerial tour to seriously consider Apex Air, for their variety of tours, safety record, specialized helicopters, plus skilled, knowledgeable, well experienced pilots.
One of the best experiences of my life! Joshua the pilot was amazing! Sedona is beautiful and this showed you even more beauty
Oh wow... what an experience - Josh, our pilot, was excellent and very informative. The 50 minute flight was exciting in that it gave us a whole different view of the Sedona area. We'll be talking about this tour for a long time. My companion was concerned of maybe getting airsick... Josh assured her and true to his word the flight was smooth as silk. I would highly recommend Apex Air Tours. Both Scott and Josh run a great show.
Enjoyed a front row seat during an informative and descriptive ride with pilot Joshua. I would definitely recommend Apex!
The 4 of us were blown away on this Mogollon Rim helicopter ride! Scott prepped us wonderfully and set the proper expectations. And Joshua flew the jet bird expertly, complete with a running commentary that was educational yet humorous. Cannot recommend this team enough as it can be the trip of a lifetime, guaranteed!
We booked the one hour tour and it was INCREDIBLE! The views and rock formations are beyond amazing. Josh, our pilot, was very professional and gave a wonderful narration of everything we saw. Definitely recommend Apex and would take the flight again!
Awesome ride! Great views around Sedona with a verbal guided tour by the pilot. If I could I would take the tour everyday
Amazing tour! I called up to book a tour the day of and they were able to accommodate. Josh made us feel super comfortable and is an absolute pro. He was able to provide so much knowledge and took us to see so many amazing canyons, ancient ruins and spots. Absolutely amazing views so definitely get your camera ready. We did the hour tour and definitely feel like we got our money’s worth. Highly recommend for some once in a lifetime views of Sedona!
