We did this ride with our girls when they were younger about 15 yrs ago, and they are still talking about how much fun it was. May do it again this summer, just us old folks.

One of the things on my husband's bucket list was a helicopter ride. I was finally able to give him this. I was worried he wouldn't be able to get in it because he is a big guy and has VERY bad knees.. thanks to the wonderful guys working there, loading and unloading people, he had very little trouble getting in and out. I want to thank everyone who works there for making this a memorable experience for us. Please stay safe.

It was an amazing 12-minute experience! That company is well organized, right from buying tickets to check-in to taking pictures in front of helicopter, getting seated and the ride! Very friendly staff!! Little bit pricey. Go early (be there at 9am) to avoid rush.
