Tour - Was pretty cool. The service team is very attentive. For the price paid, I would have liked more time, but I still liked it.

Very attentive staff - This tour was very special, we did it to celebrate Mother's Day, it was my mother's first time, she was very happy. All the people who served us, Amanda, Clayton, Matheus, and especially the pilot, were all very attentive and kind. At the end the pilot asked what we thought. Even the 2 guys who welcomed us at the end of the tour helped us get off the helicopter, very kind. It's a shame the tour is so short, 7 minutes, but it's wonderful, every view is beautiful, exciting! It's my second time and it's always worth it!

We will never forget it! - How beautiful and how exciting!!! But let's start from the beginning. We were undecided if and when to take a tour for the few days we were in Rio and so asking around they suggested Helisight which also leaves without reservation (if available) directly from Lagoa. Great flight option into the city center. Right from the start, Rayana and Amanda's professionalism, friendliness and thousand smiles helped us first of all to calm us down and secondly to prepare us for the unforgettable experience we would have. Honest prices, unique professionalism and I swear that the emotion of our honeymoon was indescribable!!! Thank you! ♥️

Excellent ground and air staff - Tayana, Abner and Matheus were great. They planned a personal trip for me as Christ Redeemer was in the fog. I really appreciate how much you help me as I do not speak Portuguese; only English and they were very, very helpful!!

Only - Fantastic tour, I recommend it as it is a little out of reach for many people due to the price, but anyone who has the opportunity and conditions should take this tour.

A unique experience that everyone should try one day. Look from God! - Wonderful experience of seeing my Rio de Janeiro from above, from the same angle as the birds. All the employees, from the first person who served us to the last one, were incredible in everything. The pilot was very sweet and noticed how emotional I was. Thank you all, first class service

It’s a MUST DO! - Breathtaking. Absolutely breathtaking. I would wait until maybe the second or third day to have a better idea of what you’re looking at, but it almost doesn’t matter because Christ the Redeemer steals the show. It’s the most beautiful view ever! I did the shortest tour possible to save money. I think it was just supposed to be a few minutes. It seemed like much longer than that!!! It’s a MUST DO!
