A Memorable Golden Gate Helicopter Experience with an Amazing Crew - I flew the Golden Gate Helicopter Adventure back in June and was truly impressed. Many years ago I’d done a helicopter tour that soared UNDER the bridge — that was amazing and thrilling!!! This time we weren’t able to go under, but the experience was still exceptional. The views of the Golden Gate Bridge, downtown San Francisco, Alcatraz and Angel Island were simply breathtaking. What really stood out, though, was how relaxed and accommodating everyone on the team was — from check-in to take-off the staff treated us with genuine warmth and professionalism. This tour delivers gorgeous aerial scenery and a stress-free experience from start to finish. Highly recommended.

Helicopter tour was amazing - The helicopter tour was fun, the Golden Gate Bridge was partially covered by fog but it looked really cool and mysterious. The pilot was both educational and funny.

Memorable! - Great experience. Staff is extremely friendly and helped coordinate my engagement. Pilot , Mike, adjusted the flight route to show us where we live. He was awesome. I felt safe and comfortable the entire time. I highly recommend!

San Francisco helicopter experience - Great experience, John the pilot was superb and his knowledge during the tour was exceptional. On the day the shuttle service broke diwn and we was asked to get a taxi and the cost would be reimbursed ( still waiting 3 weeks later) On our arrival we asked if was a chance of a coffee and was told no but if we went into town we could get one . This didn't distract that the experience was brilliant but it is just the little things that let it down

If you're on the fence, do it! - Amazing experience! The staff was super knowledgeable and friendly, and the perspective we gained on the Bay Area was phenomenal. Jonathan, who helmed our helicopter tour, knew a lot about what to point out, and struck us as very safety-conscious. Go here! It's quite the experience.

No fly zone - They cancelled my flight due to regulatory inspections. I was really disappointed. They did offer me other options on a different day but I was unable to accept the generous offers as my schedule wouldn't allow for it. I guess I'll try again next time I'm up here, hopefully it works out.
