Worth the money
The helicopter pilot Becky was awesome. The scenery was enjoyable and it was fun to land and take off Tower Butte.
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled Becky made your flight so enjoyable and that you loved the incredible scenery and unique Tower Butte landing. It’s truly an unforgettable way to experience the Arizona desert!

Great
This tour is super! Very exciting. Thanks to Michael and Albert, our pilot. Three of the four of us were 1st timers in a helo, and so a bit unsure of what to expect. Any reluctance disappeared the moment we walked in the door. Everything about it completely professional. Bravo!

Tour Cancelled on me the night before
I was called by the tour operator on the Friday night before and told me the tour is cancelled due to ”helicopter maintenance”. I was told I have to call Viator to get my refund of $618!! I’m going to try to call them and see how that goes.

Beautiful but disappointing on professionalism
Mixed feelings with this. I got a message day of that the helicopter was running late. So we pushed back a couple hours but it didn’t get back in time so I was moved to the following day. It was rather inconvenient to wait around all day for nothing. I requested a discount for the inconvenience or a complimentary 3 rd person seat. I was told it would be looked into and they would let me know day of flight. That never happened I never got told anything about the discount or 3 rd seat. While the views were spectacular I was disappointed to have to replan my birthday plans with family. No discount was applied.

Why this scores 51
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Arizona Desert Helicopter Tour Including Tower Butte Landing: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Page.
How much does Arizona Desert Helicopter Tour Including Tower Butte Landing cost?
+
Prices start at $314 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Page usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Arizona Desert Helicopter Tour Including Tower Butte Landing take?
+
Plan for about 0.7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Page is not rushed.
Is Arizona Desert Helicopter Tour Including Tower Butte Landing worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 51 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 48 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Page, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Arizona Desert Helicopter Tour Including Tower Butte Landing?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Arizona Desert Helicopter Tour Including Tower Butte Landing suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 0.7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Arizona Desert Helicopter Tour Including Tower Butte Landing?
+
Around 17 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Page can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Page and add a light layer if any part of the 0.7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Arizona Desert Helicopter Tour Including Tower Butte Landing start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Page within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Page?
+
Page exists for two icons: guided Antelope Canyon slot tours, which are the only legal way in, and Horseshoe Bend overlooks, plus Lake Powell boat trips and Colorado River float runs. On Outty we rank every Page experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Lower Antelope Canyon Hiking Tour, Navajo Dinner Theater, Hoop Dancing, and Native Storytelling, Secret Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bend Overlook. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Page?
+
March to May and September to October; midday canyon slots are best for light beams. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Page?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
