Personally we thought this was amazing. Plenty of friendly staff on hand to guide you through and explain all the pre-departure stuff. The tour itself does exactly what it says on the tin. The pilot was an absolute star and very knowledgeable. Absolutely awesome experience and quite happy to recommend these guys to anyone wishing to do this.

The staff was great, there were no labels or names on the building. We paid a lot of money and I tried to get the latest flight to catch the city lights. This company called me to try and get us in early before 5pm and we were scheduled for 630pm. They told us to show up at 545pm and we flew before 6pm. It was my wife's 40th birthday and I told everyone ahead of time. Nobody acknowledged it or anything. I had a tip for the pilot, he never got out and said anything to us or took pictures with us. It's literally come in, pay an extra $40 heliport fee per person, get the lifejacket strapped to you, go out on the hipad, take a picture with the helicopter in the background, get in, go up, fly come back, get offered the picture that was taken earlier, and good bye. By 630pm when the city lights were on, they were closed and the gates were locked. We enjoyed the flight minus the turbulence we encountered and I wish the pilot would've said something when that happened. My wife kept saying she wanted to see the city at night and that was my intention. Definitely a bucket list memory, but would go with another company.
