 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jacob was fantastic from start to finish. From the moment we arrived, he delivered top-tier customer service and made us feel completely comfortable. The Blue Hill Helicopters Boston Tour was smooth, well-organized, and honestly exceeded expectations. It was a beautiful day, which made the views even better. Boston looks absolutely stunning from above.

Seeing the skyline, the harbor, and all the surrounding areas from that perspective was unforgettable. Jacob was professional, safety-focused, and made the whole experience feel easy and enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking for something unique to do in Boston, and I’d absolutely do it again.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jacob made our Boston helicopter tour an unforgettable experience. From the moment we took off his professionalism and confidence put us completely at ease. There was a lot going on in the sky during our flight but he kept his cool the entire time and handled everything smoothly.

He was clearly very skilled and focused on giving us a safe and smooth ride while still making it exciting. The views were incredible and you could tell we were in good hands the whole time.

If you are thinking about doing a helicopter tour over Boston, ask for Jacob. You will not regret it. Five stars all the way.

Frequently Asked Questions

WHAT IS YOUR CANCELLATION POLICY?

Plans change, so we offer two booking options at checkout:

Standard — non-refundable. Cancel 24h+ ahead for store credit or a free reschedule (no cash refund).
Flexible Booking (add-on) — cancel 24h+ ahead for a full cash refund to your original payment.

Within 24 hours of your flight: free reschedule only (subject to availability), no refund.

Flexible Booking also lets you take a cash refund if we cancel. The Flexible fee and any car service fees are non-refundable, and it doesn't cover no-shows, late arrivals, or cancellations within 24 hours.

No-shows & late arrivals are non-refundable. We may cancel with no refund if you arrive 15+ minutes late, and refuse boarding for safety (including intoxication).

If we cancel (weather, safety, operational): store credit or a free reschedule — or a cash refund for Flexible Booking guests.

Third-party bookings: if you booked elsewhere (e.g. an online travel platform), their policy applies and changes must go through them.

WHAT IF THERE IS INCLEMENT WEATHER?

At Helicopter Tours Boston, we prioritize providing exceptional customer service. In the event of inclement weather — such as high winds, low clouds, low visibility, snow, or rain — we will proactively contact you before your scheduled tour. You never need to worry about checking the weather yourself; we'll keep you informed every step of the way. If we cancel your flight for weather, you'll be offered store credit for the full amount or a free reschedule. Guests who added Flexible Booking at checkout may choose a full cash refund instead.

Which harbor islands will we see

The Boston Harbor Islands + Skyline Tour offers aerial views of the Boston Harbor Islands, with potential views of islands throughout the harbor depending on the day’s approved flight route. You may also see nearby coastal highlights like Nantasket Beach, Hull, and the Boston skyline. Exact island views can vary based on weather, visibility, air traffic, and pilot routing.

IS THERE PARKING AT YOUR LOCATION?

Great news! We provide free guaranteed parking for our customers 24/7. You can park your vehicle with peace of mind while you enjoy your helicopter tour with us.
