What's the ground rule of seating? Are heavier passengers assigned to rear seats?
When I went I was old that the "computer" assigns seating in the helicopter. So there isn't any negotiation on your assigned seat. Every passenger is discreetly weighed. And yes, the heavier passengers were in the back seats. But there really isn't… more

Amazing group with very thorough safety protocols. Our pilot was very professional and shared a lot of history of the Canyon and welcomed any questions. Can't wait to fly with Maverick in the future at one of their other sites. Thank you!

We are happy to learn about your 5-star experience, Mital! Thank you for choosing Maverick Helicopters for your Grand Canyon excursion. Best Regards, A Maverick Team Member
This flight was supposed to be the highlight of our trip to Arizona and the Grand Canyon. My wife and I came to celebrate our 10 Year Wedding Anniversary. The helicopter holds 8 people, including the pilot. There were 3 couples on our flight. Maverick helicopters put my wife in the front and me in the back seat and claimed it was for weight distribution. That is garbage, it's bad business. The couple they stuck front and center had their flight cancelled the previous day, due to wind, so they literally pushed us aside to accommodate them. Separating a couple is completely wrong. I couldn't hold her hand, see her excitement, or share this moment with her due to their poor seating plan. I bought this to experience it with her!!! Instead, I was frustrated and sitting by myself. 4 helicopters took off at the same time, they could have done better! The backseat, right side of the helicopter is not a good seat. There's a post right where you look and you can't see much out of the left or front of the helicopter, much of what the pilot described and talked about was in those locations and I never saw them. I reached out to Maverick helicopters about my frustration and received nothing to make it right. We spent a ton of money to walk away disappointed. Fly with another company.
We had an amazing flight on Maverick helicopters to view the Grand Canyon. Vern was our pilot. He was fun to talk with and made us feel very safe. Maverick has a great safety record so it made us feel comfortable. This was the flight of a lifetime we could've never seen the greatness of the Grand Canyon by just touring around the rim. It was a nice trip that was well worth it.

Excellent trip. The entire staff was courteous and professional. Views were breathtaking!

We are absolutely thrilled that you and your family had a 5-star experience flying with us over the Grand Canyon! Thank you for sharing your photos and for flying with us, Tamara. Kind Regards, A Maverick Team Member
Toby is an incredible pilot. Checkin was easy. Our original 45 minute Canyon Spirit flight was scheduled for a Friday with higher winds (25-30mph) so we opted for a different day. Definitely plan your vacation to Grand Canyon around the helicopter tour! I went with my mom and it was my first time in a helicopter like this, and it was an extraordinary experience. Every seat has a great view. My mom sat by the window and I next to her but the views were extraordinary all around. We stayed in Flagstaff so the airport is about an hour away. Need to know: in April it was a bit chilly but the helicopters have onboard temperature controls so everyone is comfortable. Max seating was 6 and it's by weight so the pilot tells you where to sit. Loved the experience and 100% recommend to first time helicopter passengers, families and bucket list fulfillment seekers.
Unbeatable views of the Grand Canyon. The flight over the Kai Bab, to and over the rim of the Grand Canyon, and then the time over the Canyon was amazing. I've visited the Grand Canyon several times, but this was by far the most memorable trip. While each helicopter can hold as many as 7 passengers, there were only 4 in ours so everyone had clear access to a window. The pilot was friendly and professional and his commentary was informative. Definitely recommended!

We're glad you had a fantastic flight and appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review, Susan. Thank you for choosing Maverick Helicopters.
Just give it a try and check off riding helicopter from your list. We booked the night tour online. The bus picked us up 1 hour and 20 minutes before our official tour starts, we had to wait like an hour to wait for our ride. There are 3 front seats by the pilot and 4 back seats. The best seats would be the back ones behind the pilot seat. But it doesn't matter you will get a good view and you don't have a saying where to sit. You get seated based on your weight. The trip is 10 minutes long and the ride was smooth. At the end of the tour the pilot let you take pictures by the helicopter.

Savvino-storozhevsky monastery and museum.
Zvenigorod's most famous sight is the Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery, which was founded in 1398 by the monk Savva from the Troitse-Sergieva Lavra, at the invitation and with the support of Prince Yury Dmitrievich of Zvenigorod. Savva was later canonised as St Sabbas (Savva) of Storozhev. The monastery late flourished under the reign of Tsar Alexis, who chose the monastery as his family church and often went on pilgrimage there and made lots of donations to it. Most of the monastery’s buildings date from this time. The monastery is heavily fortified with thick walls and six towers, the most impressive of which is the Krasny Tower which also serves as the eastern entrance. The monastery was closed in 1918 and only reopened in 1995. In 1998 Patriarch Alexius II took part in a service to return the relics of St Sabbas to the monastery. Today the monastery has the status of a stauropegic monastery, which is second in status to a lavra. In addition to being a working monastery, it also holds the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum.
Belfry and Neighbouring Churches
Located near the main entrance is the monastery's belfry which is perhaps the calling card of the monastery due to its uniqueness. It was built in the 1650s and the St Sergius of Radonezh’s Church was opened on the middle tier in the mid-17th century, although it was originally dedicated to the Trinity. The belfry's 35-tonne Great Bladgovestny Bell fell in 1941 and was only restored and returned in 2003. Attached to the belfry is a large refectory and the Transfiguration Church, both of which were built on the orders of Tsar Alexis in the 1650s.
To the left of the belfry is another, smaller, refectory which is attached to the Trinity Gate-Church, which was also constructed in the 1650s on the orders of Tsar Alexis who made it his own family church. The church is elaborately decorated with colourful trims and underneath the archway is a beautiful 19th century fresco.
Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral
The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is the oldest building in the monastery and among the oldest buildings in the Moscow Region. It was built between 1404 and 1405 during the lifetime of St Sabbas and using the funds of Prince Yury of Zvenigorod. The white-stone cathedral is a standard four-pillar design with a single golden dome. After the death of St Sabbas he was interred in the cathedral and a new altar dedicated to him was added.
Under the reign of Tsar Alexis the cathedral was decorated with frescoes by Stepan Ryazanets, some of which remain today. Tsar Alexis also presented the cathedral with a five-tier iconostasis, the top row of icons have been preserved.
Tsaritsa's Chambers
The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is located between the Tsaritsa's Chambers of the left and the Palace of Tsar Alexis on the right. The Tsaritsa's Chambers were built in the mid-17th century for the wife of Tsar Alexey - Tsaritsa Maria Ilinichna Miloskavskaya. The design of the building is influenced by the ancient Russian architectural style. Is prettier than the Tsar's chambers opposite, being red in colour with elaborately decorated window frames and entrance.
At present the Tsaritsa's Chambers houses the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum. Among its displays is an accurate recreation of the interior of a noble lady's chambers including furniture, decorations and a decorated tiled oven, and an exhibition on the history of Zvenigorod and the monastery.
Palace of Tsar Alexis
The Palace of Tsar Alexis was built in the 1650s and is now one of the best surviving examples of non-religious architecture of that era. It was built especially for Tsar Alexis who often visited the monastery on religious pilgrimages. Its most striking feature is its pretty row of nine chimney spouts which resemble towers.
