My boyfriend surprised me with a helicopter ride for my birthday! It was my first time in a helicopter! There isn't too much pre-experience instruction - all you need to know is how to put on the seat belt and how to wear the headset. We did the 18-20 minute flight, right at sunset, and it was beautiful! Our ride was smooth from take-off to landing. It felt like we were floating in the air but we were actually going 100 mph! Our package included dinner so we headed to Fogo de Chão after the flight. This was definitely an experience I won't forget and I'd love to do it again sometime!
