Helicopter tours
See Cathedral Rock, Bell Rock and the canyons from above in one short flight.
Helicopter tours fly from Sedona Airport on top of Airport Mesa. Flights are short, so the price per minute is high, but it's the fastest way to understand how the red rock formations fit together.
Most operators seat passengers by weight, so you may not choose your seat.
Tips
- Wear dark clothing to cut window reflections in photos.
- Morning flights are usually smoother than windy afternoons.
