First of all, Sam was my first Contact once we arrived, a super awesome guy, super helpful. Rasmus was our pilot, we had one little nervous guest and his superb flying put her at ease. Thank you for a great flight. On a personal note flying choppers, in my younger days was an aspiration and this weekend rekindled that. Thank you to everyone that has created an incredible experience.

Best tour to date. My daughter and I had an amazing time flying in a helicopter for the first time. Our boarding attendant was Rasmus and he was awesome. Explained to us what we must do. Our pilot, Jordan Seaburg, was fantastic!! Great pilot. He was very informative and told us a lot about what to expect. Being our first time flying Jordan kept us very comfortable and eased our nerves. It was the best tour to date.

Loved our tour with Nick. Had a great tour. The pilot Nick was very friendly and made our family of 4 very comfortable. He told us about the local sights we were flying over and gave us suggestions for other fun activities we could do in the area. We will definitely request him when we return to the area again!
