The helicopter was tiny...my boyfriend barely fit in the back. However, the pilot was great! Smooth ride and detailed tour. The best part was flying over all the Sports Stadiums!

Hi Virginia,  Thank you for submitting your review! I'm very sorry to hear that our Helicopter was tiny and your boyfriend could barely fit. I'm glad you enjoyed your flight and I hope this won't deter you from visiting us again in the future. From the sound of it, the views must have been breathtaking Virginia. I envy you as I am afraid of heights, hahaha. Cheers,  Helen.   
Our Sunset Helicopter Ride was fabulous! Our pilot Zach was awesome and instantly relaxed away any lingering nervousness we may have had. He was friendly, professional and courteous. The weather was perfect and the timing captured a beautiful sunset over the Philly skyline. Chilled mini bottles of champagne were a nice touch! Highly recommend this experience for an extra-special occasion! Our kids gifted us this experience and it was truly spectacular!

Hello Caroline, We are glad to hear that you had a fabulous time! Your kids are wonderful gift givers! It is always nice to hear when our partners make an experience extra memorable. We hope you book another spectacular adventure soon! Cheers, Julissa
This was our first ride in a helicopter so we have nothing to compare it with, but the ride was smooth and comfortable. At a cruising height of 500 ft. we could easily identify all the popular sights in and around Philadelphia. From Independence Mall to the Art Museum to the Zoo to the stadiums in South Philly, everything was clearly and easily identifiable. My family loved the aerial pix and vids we took.
