Just do it! You won’t regret it :) - So worth it! Beautiful views and very knowledgeable, friendly pilot. Highly recommend and definitely book at least 20 mins of fly time. Even that didn’t feel like enough. Don’t let fear keep you from trying!

Best way to see fall colours - The facility is located conveniently off the highway. Staff were friendly and helpful. Plane ride was smooth and enjoyable. Beautiful fall colours on the 1000 islands against the backdrop of the water under the sun created the most amazing scenery I have ever seen. You have to do it once in your life!

100% topped the cake when it came to all of the excursions we did in Gananoque. - From the moment we arrived to the end of the expierience it was definitly a 10/10 .. it was our first time in helicopter and my first time off the ground. The expierience was absolutely amazing! We will be booking longer tours next time we are out there.

New perspective! - The helicopter tour was absolutely unforgettable! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel safe, welcome, and excited. Once we lifted off, the views were beyond breathtaking—soaring over [landmarks/scenery] felt surreal, like seeing the world from a whole new perspective. Our pilot was friendly, knowledgeable, and pointed out hidden gems along the way, which made the experience even more special. The ride was smooth and surprisingly relaxing, giving us plenty of chances to take photos and soak it all in. Truly a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, worth every penny. I’d recommend it to anyone without hesitation!

Hidden Gem - Must Visit Attraction - We took a 10-minute tour with my family on my 50th Birthday. we were amazed by the scenic views from the helicopter. The staff were very friendly and cooperative. The pilot explained all safety items in detail and provided a description of the places we visited during the flight.

A family business providing a high quality and enjoyable experience. Excellent value to be sure! - Easy to find location. Professional and punctual but personable staff. Bright, clean, and well maintained premises and aircraft. The flight was informal and friendly but informative and interactive with an emphasis on safety. Excellent experience and value!!
