Sedona Helicopter Rides

Through The Red Rocks

Sedona’s spectacular crimson rock formations

are natural works of art that, when seen by air, form a remarkable landscape canvas that inspires awe and wonder.

Long known as a spiritual power center, Sedona’s healing landscape is home to metaphysical retreats, energy vortexes, and luxury resorts and spas promoting relaxation and restoration.

You’ll fly above the inspiring Chapel of the Holy Cross along the scenic route of our Sedona helicopter ride. The chapel is a popular Catholic monument set right into the red rocks that boasts a 90-foot cross built by a student of Frank Lloyd Wright. Emerald Green Oak Creek flows through a narrow gorge cut along a fault line in the same rock strata that formed the Grand Canyon. It’s a great place for birders, and here the desert is full of life with javelina, mule deer, coyotes, and bobcats on occasional display.

With H5, you can land and enjoy world-class dining, one-of-a-kind art galleries and shops, and the magnificent beauty of the surrounding landscape. Retail therapy is close at hand with the Mexican-village-inspired Tlaquepaque (pronounced Tla-keh-pah-keh) Arts & Shopping Village. With plenty of shade from the sycamores along the banks of Oak Creek, it offers one of the most unique shopping experiences in the Southwest.

Whether you’re a wellness guru, avid outdoorsman, artist, or lover of all of these, you’ll find Sedona to be a veritable mecca of the desert.

FAQs

You’ll fly from our Scottsdale Airpark directly into the heart of Sedona’s red rock country. Along the way, your pilot will guide you over iconic landmarks including the Chapel of the Holy Cross, Oak Creek Canyon, and the towering formations that make Sedona world-famous. We have the option to land in Sedona so you can enjoy world-class dining, galleries, and the surrounding beauty on the ground. The entire experience is private, narrated, and crafted to feel cinematic.

Without question. Sedona is one of the most visually stunning places in the world, and seeing it from the air — especially with a pilot who knows how to frame the landscape for maximum impact — is a completely different experience than driving through it. Our guests routinely describe it as the single most impressive thing they’ve done in Arizona.

From a helicopter. Full stop. The scale and drama of the red rock formations are simply impossible to fully appreciate from the ground or from a car. H5 pilots fly routes that frame the most spectacular formations from angles that photography, hiking trails, and scenic drives can’t match. It’s Sedona as it was meant to be seen.

Yes. Emerald-green Oak Creek flowing through its narrow canyon is one of the most striking sights on the flight. Your pilot will take you over and through the canyon at low altitude so you can truly experience the scale and beauty of it.

Yes — and it’s a wonderful addition. Sedona has world-class restaurants and a vibrant arts scene. We can land so your group can enjoy dining, shopping, or simply taking in the scenery on the ground before flying back. Let us know when you book and we’ll incorporate it into your flight plan.

Flight time varies based on your specific route and whether you include a ground stop. Your H5 team will walk you through the full itinerary when you book. The experience is designed to feel unhurried and immersive — not rushed.

H5 Helicopters is the premier option for a Phoenix-to-Sedona aerial experience. We’ve been flying these routes since 2008 and bring the same approach we use for film productions with National Geographic and IMAX — optimal flight paths, cinematic angles, and narration that brings the landscape to life. There’s no better way to travel between the two destinations.

No — $4,950 covers your entire private flight for up to 5 passengers (or 850 lbs total). Split among five people, that’s under $1,000 per person for a genuinely once-in-a-lifetime experience over one of the world’s most famous landscapes. It’s exceptional value.

Sedona is world-renowned for its red rock scenery, spiritual energy, outdoor adventures, and arts community. From the air with H5, you’ll see the Chapel of the Holy Cross, Cathedral Rock, Bell Rock, Oak Creek Canyon, and sweeping desert vistas. On the ground, Tlaquepaque Arts & Shopping Village is a unique Mexican-village-inspired destination along Oak Creek with galleries, restaurants, and shade from the sycamores.
