Great way to see The Falls and surroundings - What a way to see The Falls and surrounding area with your private guide in the air!
Genuine welcome at the desk in a friendly small airport by the guy who turned out to be our pilot!
Great visibility from the copter with explanations all the way.
The real revelation for me was the expanse of Niagra vineyards. Coming from the UK, never knew!!
Worth every penny.

Satisfied Customer. - The Helicopter Trip was great - the Pilot and Ground Crew were very personable and provided great pre- flight information. The only disappointment was that the weather changed when we were in the air - and we were unable to get close to the Falls. But - as we shared with the pilot - we appreciated him trying and we had a great view of the Falls from our Hotel Room - so we were not disappointed. And- Viator/National Helicopter were extremely customer friendly when they voluntarily refunded the flight cost because of the weather interfering with our directly seeing Niagara Falls. THANK YOU - Satisfied Customer.

Cost was $60 Canadian dollars return without tip. The helicopter trip was wonderful and well worth the money. The whole trip was well organised and staff very helpful and pleasant. Highly recommended.</p>

Obviously once you get to the falls they are self explanatory, but there's a fair amount to see before that. I had to ask questions in order to get any information from the pilot.<br/>
Views of the falls were good, we didn't have great weather but we still got pictures of the main attractions. The pilot looped both directions so that both sides had views of the falls.<br/>
I did like the fact that we were able to choose whether to have our bubbly on the flight or take it away with us. As we had booked this primarily to take photos and have no one else in our way, it was nice to have the option to take the bottle back to the hotel.</p>

Tour was great and the experience of being in a helicopter was my first so it was also a fantastic experience. All the staff were very friendly and commentary was good and the pilot answered all of my questions and was also very friendly. Thought the commentary could have been slightly more detailed but it was good nonetheless. Overall I would recommend the tour and rate this experience 4.5 of 5</p>
