Among the most popular tours by air are the helicopter rides offered at one of America´s most scenic airports. Let experienced pilots take you into the surrounding canyons, hover at cliff dwellings situated high up in the canyon walls, swoop over narrow dividing ridges and point out the many world-famous red rock structures from a bird´s eye view! A helicopter tour in Sedona counts among the once-in-a-lifetime travel experiences worldwide.
If a helicopter flight is not your cup of tea, you can also get on board an open propeller airplane. The “Red Baron”, which most visitors to Sedona have seen soaring through the skies above the red rocks, is a classic Waco biplane. The pilot will even let you fly the plane yourself - if you dare. Customize your own ride, or go on a tour designed by experienced air guides who are truly in love with this area.
For those who would rather venture to other, farther points of interest, there are also several air tour companies in Sedona that  offer “destination” flights to other national parks in northern Arizona. You can even fly to the Grand Canyon from here!
Whichever craft you chose to become airborne above the Sedona red rocks, and whichever route you decide on – this is a truly breathtaking perspective that many miss and only a few will experience. To fully appreciate the vast and rugged beauty of the Sedona area, an air tour is definitely on our top picks for things to do in Sedona!
