Incredible view. Pilot was pleasant and knowledgeable. So glad we decided to do it. More than worth the price

The view of the lake was beautiful. The pilot was very professional and friendly. I definitely recommend taking the tour.

My boyfriend is afraid of heights so I was a little skeptical about booking this trip. Our pilot Davis was so professional and friendly he put us both at ease from the start. We even showed up early as our plans for the day had changed and he and Bryce were kind enough to accommodate us. It left us a little time to pop into the restaurant on-site and have a glass of wine before dinner. We met the bartender Mary who was just an extension of the wonderful experience we had. This trip is a must for anyone who’s never been in a helicopter regardless of how many times you’ve seen Tahoe nothing beats it from this view. We plan on booking a longer flight the next time we’re in the area :)
