Operated by Westwind Air Service · Sedona, Arizona
Sedona, Arizona, known for its vibrant red rock formations and sweeping desert vistas, serves as a launching pad for one of the Southwest’s most iconic experiences. Westwind Air Service offers a thrill-inducing flight from Sedona directly to the West Rim of the Grand Canyon, home to the legendary Skywalk. This extraordinary journey is perfect for those eager to combine aerial adventure with up-close canyon marvels. As the plane swoops over layered sandstone cliffs and rugged mesas, travelers gain a perspective few can match, culminating in the chance to step out onto the Skywalk — a glass-bottom platform extending 65 feet over the canyon’s edge. From this vantage point, the vastness of the canyon unfolds beneath your feet, revealing its vividly colored strata and intricate rock formations shaped over millions of years.
Once on the West Rim, guests can immerse themselves in Hualapai culture with engaging insights from guides, enjoy a scenic walk along a leisurely trail, or indulge in a hearty lunch at Guano Point, which offers panoramic views of the canyon’s vast interior.
