"Unreliable company please think twice before booking."

We booked an expensive trip with this company based on the good reviews that had been left by other people. However we have had an extremely unsatisfactory experience with Papillon and would not book with them again. If you are thinking about booking a trip then I would advise to book with caution. Our trip was cancelled with less than 24 hours notice. There was no mention when we rang to confirm the trip that the trip may be cancelled as there was not enough people booked onto it. We were allowed to rebook for a later date but again the trip was cancelled with less than 24 hours notice. There was no attempt to try and help us find an alternative trip and we are now a week on and we have still no t received our refund. We live in the UK and this trip was supposed to be the main highlight of our holidays.

"Fantastic VIP Helicopter and Skywalk Experience"
TripAdvisor user rating 5.0 out of 5

What a Fantastic VIP Experience from Start to Finish!! We booked the Grand Canyon Helicopter Flight and Skywalk at Eagle Point, we were picked up Planet Hollywood, taken to to the Boulder City Heli Port, checked in by the friendly staff, before we met our Pilot for the day 'Mitch'. This was my first helicopter experience ever and Mitch put us all at ease with his calm and friendly persona before the flight. We took off to the Game of Thrones Soundtrack and was kept entertained during the journey with some great music and some witty facts about the areas we were flying over. We landed and were transferred to Eagle Point, where we took on the Skywalk; this was both Amazing and Terrifying at the same time, we got to see all about how it was built and to see the Native American Village, with a self-guided tour featuring authentic housing, ovens and sweat lodges. We grabbed some Souvenirs before taking the short bus ride to Guano Point, where the 360 degree views were breath taking! It's definitely not for the faint hearted, the sheer scale and height was incredible and again terrifying. We headed back to the the pick up point, where we met back with Mitch and took the 30-minute flight back to Boulder City. The whole experience was spectacular, would 100% recommend!
