Fortification Hill Tours

What can I say! Never flown in a helicopter and I was blown away! Right from the start JOE picked us up, on time at our hotel in a spotless Mercedes coach and gave us a guided tour en route to the heliport. Once there we were introduced to the crew/staff and given a very comprehensive safety briefing and an insight to the tour. Our pilot was Marcus Pruitt a very professional ex USMC veteran - who smoothly and confidently flew us via Lake Meade, the Hoover Dam to our Western Ranch option. The guys ( and gals) at the ranch were fantastic and we were treated to a Cowboy lunch of Ribs and Burgers which we fab - washed down by the best mountain stream water you have ever had - no additives! After this we had chosen to go on a horse trek experience- what an experience! The cowboys Colson and Justin were fantastic with us all - I hadn’t been on a horse for years and my experience was less than a novice, they set us all up with beautiful horses who knew how to treat this roomie and Luna ( my horse) kept me safe🙏🏻 The whole experience was amazing - I’ve e never done anything like this before - the scenery the whole tour was outstanding and highly recommended- A huge thanks to everyone involved for providing a first class tour and excellent customer service!🙏🏻

Great trip from pick up to drop off !!!! Very pleased with amazing views and explanations of everything, learnt a lot

Very informative excellent trip beautiful scenery pilot well versed in history and able to answer your questions safety was a priority

Great experience from start to finish. Prompt pickup, with smooth checkin. Our pilot Marcus was excellent. Thorough briefing before we left and then made every effort to ensure we had a comfortable flight. He was very personable and provided great commentary and insight to all the scenery. He also told us some interesting anecdotes and through in the odd joke to put us all at ease. Would highly recommend this company, as they add the personal touch.

Be sure to take everything you'll need whether kayaking or rafting (sunscreen, sunshirts, hat, towels if wanted, water bottles). Rafting got us up close and personal to Dam.

Loved. Loved. Loved. This was worth every penny. We had a fabulous time and my husband’s 50th was memorable.

We had such a fun day visiting the Emerald Cave. Don, our guide, made the trip so fun and informative. He took lots of pix for us all. We got the chance to swim in the river (cold but oh so good), and just generally enjoy the scenery.

We did the helicopter flight followed by the overnight stay at the ranch and we had a fantastic time! The flight was scenic and informative. Our pilot, Andrew, narrated the flight and pointed out the sites. Very interesting. The ranch was great. We went horseback riding and had a very good dinner followed by a campfire with music and s’mores. The next day was a hearty breakfast and then Joe drove us back to Vegas. He told us all kinds of interesting stories and gave us a couple of fantastic recommendations that we followed. Excellent experience!

Exciting flight, beautiful scenery. Landing in the valley of fire is surreal, like landing on the moon!

Wow! I cannot say enough about how much we loved this tour. We had a great day, made even better by our pilots professionalism and commitment to safety that made seeing the Grand Canyon by helicopter the safest part of our day. That was followed by experiencing the best of the west with songs, BBQ and stories on an historic ranch then going on peaceful horseback trail ride surrounded by beautiful. Next time we will stay overnight so that we can see even more.

Great experience, from start to finish. Joe is full of information on the transportation in. Flight is an hour each way and is amazing. The ranch is cool, we did the shooting and that was exceptionally well done. All in all, well worth the money. 5 star from 5 star.

Awesome trip. Marcus was personable and knowledgeable. He welcomed questions and pointed out good photo spots.

Great experience and top notch Pilot Kristina. Smooth flyight and filled with very interesting stories from our “flying tour guide”.

5 star helicopter company is amazing with great people, awesome experience! The kayak trip was also awesome with amazing people. Highly recommend
