Reviews
Gennaro was an AMAZING PILOT!, it was my husband and I first time experiencing being on a helicopter on our wedding anniversary and I was so scared he kept me laughing and calm he made us have the best time that we can ever have I totally recommend Gennaro being your pilot. Such an amazing person/personality.
Gennaro is an amazing pilot, I lived in Boston my whole entire life and I've never gotten a chance to see it from this view. He was very informative and made me wife and I feel so secure and safe throughout the whole entire tour. 100% (10/10) would do this again especially with him as the tour guide!
Gennaro was a wonder pilot. He took his time with us and make the tour so much more enjoyable and comfortable. We were very pleased with our experience with him. He is the best!!!
Everyone was spectacular . It was an amazing time . I would recommend this experience to everyone.
Magical experience and a simply magical night!The team called me a few days before letting me know that we couldn’t fly directly over the city due to a flying ban during Red Sox games. They accommodated us and what I was looking for to celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday on his actual birthday (instead of rescheduling) and they even moved our flight to 6pm instead of 5pm, which worked out even more perfectly for the sunset.It was truly an amazing experience. All the staff were incredible. HIGHLY recommend!
Gennaro was incredible! And everything was perfect and better than expected. Highly recommend taking a tour.
What a great tour!! Gennaro was an awesome pilot and showed us all of Boston and the seaports. We’ve done many helicopter tours and we’d highly suggest booking with this company! The office area and waiting room is also very nice, they offer coffee, beverages and some snacks to hold you over while you wait for your pilot. We highly appreciate the kindness and hospitality shown to us.
I did the Boston Harbor Islands and Skyline tour with my husband and 5yo son. It was a great experience! The two pilots were very friendly and knowledgeable. The views were amazing. I also appreciated that they offered to take pictures of us, and let my son sit in the cockpit after we landed. Small touches that go above and beyond. Highly recommend!
I recently had the pleasure of taking both a tour and a lesson with blue hill helicopter , and the experience was absolutely incredible! From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by how clean and well-maintained the facility was. It created a welcoming atmosphere and really set the tone for the day.The staff was nothing short of amazing. Everyone was kind, professional, and went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable and informed every step of the way. The pilots were particularly exceptional—friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what they do. They took the time to explain everything thoroughly during the lesson, ensuring I felt safe and confident in the air.The tour was breathtaking, and the whole experience left me feeling grateful for such a wonderful day. If you’re looking for an unforgettable helicopter adventure with top-notch service and a personal touch, I highly recommend blue hill helicopter . I can’t wait to return!This review emphasizes the cleanliness, kindness, and overall quality of the experience, expressing genuine gratitude for the service.
Brilliant experience. So nice guys flying. And great limousine service wirh a supernice driver. Stromgly recommend this🙃
Awesome views of Boston. Our pilot Genaro was fantastic. Great way to see Boston with limited time. Would highly recommend this tour.
All-around fantastic experience from booking through the end of the tour. Website was easy to use and scheduling was simpler than some of the other companies we looked into. Upon booking, we instantly received a receipt and confirmation. The location was quick to find and a nice option for us coming up from the south (i.e. we didn’t have to drive through Boston). Front desk agent was friendly, and there lobby provided light snacks and refreshments for all your customers. The pilots met us promptly and engaged in conversation on the way out to the helicopter. After a clear and thorough safety briefing, we were on our way with a quick 5 min flight to Boston. The views were absolutely incredible, and the pilots did a fantastic job letting us know what to expect and when. The fast ride back was convenient and comfortable. In my opinion the 30 minute tour was the perfect length - especially with the doors off - to get to see all the highlights of Boston. Thank you for everything!
Our experience with Helicopter Tour Boston / Blue Hill Helicopters was more than great! As soon as we entered the reception we felt very well looked after. We were greeted and looked after in a very friendly manner! We were also very lucky to fly with our pilot Jasha! He was extremely friendly and competent! He speaks fluent German - which was of course great for us! We would fly with Jasha and Blue Hill Helicopters / Helicopter Tour Boston over Boston again any time! THANK YOU for this breathtaking experience!Nadine & Lisa
Great experience flying with Duncan. He made me feel less nervous for my first ever flight and made the experience very smooth and calming and was also trusting with the controls. I appreciated his encouragement and the entire experience was incredibly fun overall!
Anna, Duncan, Jasha were amazing for our experience. Definitely need to do this great experience if you’re considering it
Duncan was amazing! I gave the Introduction Flight Experience to my husband for his birthday and it was a big hit! It was so fun to see him fly a helicopter and Duncan made us feel at ease the whole time! He did a great job of explaining all of the aircraft systems, both preflight and in flight. We would highly recommend this experience to anyone considering it!
Awesome experience. Josha our pilot was smooth and very informative throughout the entire flight. Seeing the city and coastline from the sky is an experience everyone should have atlst once.Thank you Josha for making our experience so memorable.
Duncan was the best pilot! This was an awesome doors off ride and the trip was astonishing. Tremendous experience! Say yes to doors-off, it will change your life.
Lovely. Incredible. Such beautiful views and wonderful staff. Shoutout Duncan for a great ride. 10/10 would recommend.
Amazing experience for our anniversary. Couldn’t be happier with the tour!
Our 1st time flying was made very easy by Eric. Great experience.
What an amazing experience! It was jaw dropping to see Boston from a different perspective. The view from a plane doesn’t even compare to the beauty you see from the helicopter. The city lights are so bright from above! I’m afraid of heights but so glad I didn’t let fear stop me from experiencing this!I wanted to do something bold for my engagement and the Engagement Tour was the perfect choice! They kept all details a secret beforehand. Everything went better than I could have imagined; especially because, she said yes!A major s/o to our pilot and the driver of the car service I booked through Helicopter Tours! We were picked up from a location of our choosing from downtown Boston, taken to the helicopter, and back with a nice view of the city on the way back.I highly recommend taking a tour!
One of a kind experience! I highly recommend the nighttime skyline tour, such a smooth ride seeing the city in a very intimate, one of a kind way!
Incredible experience! Duncan was such a fantastic pilot. He gave myself and my wife memories we’ll never forget. Thank you so much!
Duncan was the absolute best and we had one of the top nights of our lives in Boston. After living here for over a decade, nothing beat the beauty of seeing the city from this vantage point. 10/10 recommend!
We truly enjoyed our tour with Duncan! It was a smooth ride with amazing views and great sites to see.
What a breathtaking views during this flight. Would highly recommend!! An amazing experience, special thanks to our pilot Duncan who made this happen for us
What a life changing experience. That was such an amazing tour and worth ever penny.
We had a fantastic flight over Cape Cod. Everyone at the Company was friendly and helpful and the pilot, Eric, was really knowlegeable about the area. The helicopter was virtually brand new, very clean and very well maintained. I would highly recommend this company for a special way to see the area.
I Had a great time with my girlfriend! We went on a 9pm flight over the city of Boston and it was amazing. Our pilot was great and very experienced, we knew we were in good hands once we walked into the check in area! Great staff !!! Thanks again for everything!
Ruined me for any other travel. I want to take a helicopter everwhere
We had such an amazing time!!! Jasha was such a great pilot - the ride was smooth and we saw all of Boston and the harbor islands!
My daughter and I had an amazing experience with Bill touring the eastern side of the Cape. We saw beautiful beaches, seals in Chatham, and oyster beds in Wellfleet. Best way too see cape cod! Can’t wait until next time
It was amazing! Erik was very professional and was a phenomenal pilot!
Great experience with Erik! We did the sunset tour with open doors. Amazing!!! I'm definitely doing it again!
It was a really enjoyable experience from the start to the finish. When we entered we were immediately offered snacks and refreshments. The staff and pilots were all really nice and it was a very memorable experience.
My recent tour with Boston Helicopter Tours was spectacular, thanks to our skilled and knowledgeable pilot, Jasha. The stunning aerial views of Boston made it an unforgettable adventure. The entire experience was smooth, safe, and incredibly enjoyable. If you're looking to see Boston from a unique perspective, I highly recommend this tour and especially Jasha as your pilot.
First class operation every step of the way. Great equipment, great pilot, and very helpful office staff
Erick was an amazing pilot! Very friendly and we had an amazing experience!
Erik was amazing! The entire experience was so perfect. Could not ask for a better time. So perfect.
The best view ever! If you can do this, most certainly do this!!!!
Top notch tour with Eric! Office area was clean and welcoming, communication and flight was excellent. He provided great information - we would definitely do it again.
Absolutely amazing! Answered all my questions and made the experience a breeze! Made me feel comfortable and definitely will be back! Highly recommend! Ask for Eric!
Had an amazing time! Eric is awesome! A must everyone should experience. He answered all our questions and made sure we were comfortable throughout our whole trip! Definitely would be coming back! Thanks Eric!
The tour was fantastic. Our pilot Erik was so great and so professional. I would definitely recommend this to visitors of Boston and locals.
The staff is very kind and professional. This is a great experience to surprise your friends and/or family. I recommend 100%!!

Fantastic experience!! Something I've wanted to do for a long time. Easy to set up the tour online and then met helpful people when arriving. Duncan, our pilot, was friendly and personable. Great guide. Knew his stuff! Will be doing this again soon!!
My fiancée and I recently had the most unforgettable experience with Blue Hill Helicopters, all thanks to the exceptional services provided by Breevin. From the very first contact, Breevin demonstrated an extraordinary level of professionalism and personal attention, ensuring that every detail was perfectly tailored to our needs.My fiancé planned a special moment, and Breevin went above and beyond to make it truly magical. They worked closely with my fiancé, meticulously planning every aspect of the helicopter tour to ensure it would be an unforgettable experience. Breevin's dedication and very thoughtful suggestions helped us craft a moment that was both unique and deeply personal.On the day of the flight, the entire team at Blue Hill Helicopters was welcoming and professional, making us feel at ease from the moment we arrived.

The views were absolutely stunning, offering a perspective of Boston that we could never have imagined from the ground.What stood out the most was the personal touch that Breevin brought to the entire experience. They understood how important the moment was for us and put in the extra effort to make it perfect.

Team provided me and my fiancée with images, photos and experiences that we will cherish for long time to come. I highly recommend this company and I look forward to flying with them soon!
Duncan was professional, friendly, and a blast to fly with. Certainly will be back for more!
My experience with Boston Helicopter Tours was absolutely fantastic! Located in the heart of Norwood, Massachusetts, they provided an unforgettable adventure for our first ever helicopter ride. From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly friendly, making us feel welcome and at ease.The tour was both educative and exciting. The pilot, who was extremely experienced, shared interesting facts about the city and its landmarks, enhancing our appreciation of Boston's rich history. His professionalism and skill made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the flight.We were delighted to find that we could upgrade our package to include extra services and extended flight time. This flexibility allowed us to customize our experience and make the most of our tour.

Both Erik and Jasha are excellent pilots and their customer service is expectional. We had an amazing ride around Boston at night. AMAZING TRIP
Absolutely incredible! Professional, comfortable, personable and expertly flown! Thank you.
VIP treatment through and through. These guys are amazing and totally worth the money!
Truly a phenomenal experience! We did the VIP tour and it was incredible to see the city we call home from the air. Erik took wonderful care of us and we are now hooked on helicopters!
We enjoyed the night tour very much - it's a great perspective on the city and the outskirts. We will definitely do it again.
Duncan was amazing. Honestly the perfect pilot in every sense. Great energy, comforting and informative. Amazing Experience.
Did the sunset tour and it was so amazing. Had Duncan as our pilot and he was awesome!
What an Incredible experience with our Pilot Duncan! He was ver well versed in all instructions and clear open to any questions we had. Pure Delight for first ride And not my Last👍🏽🚁🤩. Gorgeous views of Boston
It was our first helicopter ride and definitely worth it. We did the Harbor Islands + Skyline and the views were spectacular. There was a last minute FAA restriction due to Red Sox game but luckily the game got done early and our pilot was kind enough to take through downtown as soon as he got to now that the restriction was taken off.
Staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. Our pilot Jasha Dirks was very nice and informative. It was my first helicopter ride and I had an absolute blast. This was a bucket list activity my mom made happened for my grad gift.Thank you for a great experience Helicopter Tour Boston!
Amazing day! Duncan was very personable and such a great tour guide. Such a fun experience
What a great experience! Our pilot Erik made it even better!Would definitely do it again!
Had a great experience with our Pilot Duncan! Showed us all the sights to see across the Boston skyline while making us feel safe. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to do a sunset skyline tour of Boston.
Is the one of the best experience I ever have so far in my life, since the treat for the staff until the end of the experience, everything was wonderful, I feel kind shy because we didn’t talk to much with the person who was driving, but I was speechless of the beauty of the city. I 100% recommend this experience and I will be back!!! Btw duncan is such a gentleman and a good pilot, he is amazing, he offered to take pictures and explain where we are and also really helpful!
I did the proposal flight this weekend and wow 🤩 was it amazing! Erik and their crew were amazing to work with and very attentive to what I wanted to do. I wouldHigh recommend taking a helicopter 🚁 flight with this company!
Great experience with Eric as our pilot! Friendly service and tailored the experience for me. Stayed in communication about any potential weather concerns, thankfully we were still able to fly and it was an amazing experience.
Unforgettable experience. Doors off tour was crazy experience. Will do it again soon.
This morning we had a Boston tour on a chopper and it’s an amazing experience with Duncan . Thanks so much! He was truly an amazing pilot and person too…❤️ Loved the air show!
Duncan granted us a fantastic experience, very kind, cheerful, answered all of our questions, and even let my son stop the sit in the pilot’s seat and take a picture. He deserves a promotion.
I had the most amazing time ever.The whole experience was beautiful, the city was very captivating. I’m afraid of heights but Erik was a pleasure to have as a pilot.
Had a wonderful time during the tour, it’s a beautiful way to experience the city! Our pilot Erik was really great and made the trip better than I could have imagined.
Blue Hill Helicopter provided an unforgettable experience! Professional pilot, breathtaking views, and unparalleled adventure. Highly recommend!
I highly recommed!!!!The two pilots were phenomenal! There was another group who was in the lounge area and one of them was incredibly rude to one of the pilots. Our original one was very kind and we ended up switching to cause less of an issue. The one we ended up having for the excursion was very knowledgeable, funny, and made it one of the best experiences. The different locations were explained, the safety of the different devices were reviewed.
Highly recommend this excursion to anyone who lives in Boston or is visiting. Breathtaking views with an informative tour with the BEST pilots! 10/10!
Blue Hill Helicopter tour of Boston was a great experience. The staff were amazing, professional ,knowledgeably and supportive. The pilots are experienced and I felt very safe on my flight to Boston. It was an amazing engagement surprise and they made extra special.
The flight was incredible. All the staff were very professional. Our pilot was awesome and knowledgeable about Boston, the helicopter, and all my silly questions. The office and helicopter were both very clean, which feels like a minor detail, but I think it’s a good indicator of the quality of the service provided. My wife and I had a great time, would absolutely recommend!
The company is great. We have used them two time and they have been flexible with us with the various changes that we had. We will use them every time!!!! They did our egg drop event for us.
This was such a beautiful experience. Our pilot Eric made us feel extremely safe. He was so knowledgeable. We simply glided above the city effortlessly and took in all of our local spots from this birds eye view. Absolutely worthwhile experience. Thank you!
Absolutely In love! 10 Outta 10!!!!😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍We will be back soon! Thank you all!💪🏼
This was such a great and unique way to experience the city. Eric was an incredible host and provided us with a great and memorable experience.
We did a night flight and it was one of the best experiences that we ever had!
Amazing 60th birthday celebration! Eric is a very personable and professional pilot! A nice addition was having champagne and chocolate pre-flight! Thank you!
Perfect experience! We had no aviation background and took an intro flight today. This is one of the most memorable experiences we've had. The weather is quite nice and our tutor Duncan is friendly and helpful. The chopper, a Robinson R88, is in great condition and the flight is smooth, steady, and comfortable!
My girlfriend and I, we’re celebrating her birthday and this is our first time we experiencing the helicopter tour with Blue Hill Helicopter and everything is amazing!!!We’re very lucky to have Duncan as our pilot, him and his co-pilot are amazing! Duncan is very professional and very kind!He had a great time here!!!
Thank you from your DOORS OFF IN DECEMBER crew!!! Our Christmas surprise trip was AMAZING!!! Our family can’t thank Erik and Duncan enough for making us comfortable, laughing, and keeping us safe!!! Both Erik and Duncan were knowledgeable and friendly, and professional! They made us feel right at home!!!Talk about a wild day!!! Hanging out of a helicopter, enjoying the views, and watching our little guy sit shotgun!!!Would recommend using them a million times over!!!
I had a proposal flight on Thanksgiving last week, which was awesome! Our pilot, Erik, is very responsible and friendly! He was patient with many emails from me about the flower delivery and other questions. The flight trip was impressive and at the end, they also prepared a surprising gift for my fiancee, which she love very much! It is a bit pity that the moment was not recorded, due to the malfunctional GoPro, but the company refunded the entire GoPro fee later. Overall, it is an unforgettable experience! Highly recommended!
Prior to the flight my anxiety was out of the roof. However, when I arrived Eric greeted my partner and I and made things feel more calming. He answered any questions about the ride and gave constant reassurance. Flo was our pilot and he was phenomenal! He made the entire ride enjoyable. I would recommend 1000x!!!
Was gifted a helicopter Boston tour as a birthday gift and it was a great experience! As a first time helicopter passenger the team was professional and made everything so seemless. Would highly recommend this if you are looking for a cool experience!
We just had the ride of our life with Blue hill helicopters. What a night on our anniversary. Very nice and pleasant pilot and very informative. I highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a fun romantic tour of the city and islands.Rick
Just had the flight of my life! As a life long Bostonian I viewed Boston and area with a Birds Eye view like never before. Erik was an incredible pilot: Professional, competent, cool, calm and collected. He also was knowledgeable in the landmarks and gave me a basic understanding of how to fly a helicopter. Highly recommend and Erik gets a five star recommendation! JUST DO IT!
I had a great experience, this was our first helicopter ride. I got to appreciate how beautiful the foliage is from up in the air and to see how beautiful is Boston. On our wayback we passed by the Cementary my mom is buried. Beautiful experience. Thank you Juan Marco.
Such an amazing experience from start to finish! My 10 year old daughter and I first did the Boston tour this past July. We enjoyed it so much that we went back at the end of the week and did the Harbor and Island tour. The Harbor and Island tour is the best value because you get a little extra time. Both tours were great! The staff is very professional and personable. They take safety seriously. The views are breathtaking. The memories are forever!!
It was such an amazing experience. It was my first time riding a helicopter ???? and I truly enjoyed it!! I definitely recommend trying helicopter tour Boston
Exemplary customer service! My brother has multiple developmental, physical and mental health disabilities. The pilot and his associate were outstanding in regard to treating John with the utmost respect. They were kind and accommodating without being condescending. We both enjoyed our flight/tour of Boston and the harbor islands. Many thanks! We will return.
We had the most incredible experience with our helicopter tour. Cannot recommend it enough. We did the sunset tour over Boston and it did not disappoint. We chose to have the doors off which made our experience that much cooler. The pilots are so friendly and fun, knowledgeable and trustworthy. Highly recommend this company and the sunset tour.
I took a great! Tour with them and my 2 daughters as a graduation gift to my oldest and we all loved it! I highly recommend!
I booked a helicopter driving lesson as a birthday gift for my husband. This was an experience of lifetime. Very easy booking steps and cooperative staff. A special thanks and appreciation for Mr Georg Stopp. A very humble person who took us through the flying experience.Thank you guys for this!!Kavya Parghee
This experience was amazing. We did the doors off tour and Sam was our pilot. The whole staff was kind and the view just speaks for itself! Do this!!! You won’t regret it
Wow! This is my second time going up in the Helicopter. It's a surreal experience that doesn't compare to any other in Boston. One minute you are in a waiting room about and the next you are floating above Boston. I took a ride down towards the Cape and it was magical. The pilots are both highly qualified and also ensure anything you'd like to see is part of the journey. Loved it!
My Wife and I had the best experience, because of Eric and Sam. They were kind, respectful and all around a joy to be around. Thank you Eric and Sam
We booked our sunset trip in advance and the booking process was easy. When we arrived the office was easy to find and the staff were really friendly and went through what we would be doing. We were offered refreshments if we wanted them.When our pilot arrived he was super friendly and took us on the cart to the helicopter. He then went through the safety tips and after boarding the helicopter went through the trip with us.Once we were in the air he gave us a good commentary of the sites and landmarks below.The staff were really friendly and the trip was brilliant and we enjoyed every minute of it and would definitely recommend it if you are in Boston.Would definitely do it again.
Had a tour of Boston and the islands today. It was amazing. Everything about the experience was fantastic, from first booking through the end of the tour. Highest possible praise!!!
Such an amazing experience! Our trip got rescheduled twice because of snow but everyone was so nice, accommodating and quick to respond to all communications. Alex our pilot was awesome and the ride was so smooth. Definitely something we will always remember!
My Partner and I truly enjoyed our experience. The ride was very smooth and enjoyable for our first time. The check in and Pilot were very kind. The ride was a great experience that I would recommend to everyone who would like to try as first time riders!
It was a really great experience. Our pilot was very understanding and successful. It felt so good to sit in a warm and clean area after the flight . I think 30 minutes is enough time, I didn't need more. Thanks again for everything ????????
Absolutely stellar group of pilots there. George and Hans both were very kind. Had a great flight over Boston! Unfortunately clouds blocked the whole sky but that didnt stop us from seeing the city lights!
This experience was awesome! It was me and my husband. We loved every minute and the pilot was amazing! He was knowledgeable of the area and a great pilot. Smooth flying and great views. It was easy to get into the airport and so much fun seeing the city and islands in a new view! We definitely want to go back for more of the other types of tours. We said it would be fun to fly over rush hour traffic!! (If you know Boston !) There are even lessons to learn how to fly!!! Thanks again for a great day and fun trip. Can’t wait to go Again!
We had an amazing time flying with George on Monday evening! They were very accommodating and helped us reschedule 2 times due to weather. The process is easy, fun and safe. This was my first time riding in a helicopter and I cannot wait to do it again! The view is unbelievable. You cannot live in Boston and not see it from that perspective. Highly recommend this experience to everyone. The Sunset Tour was phenomenal. If you are nervous about the motions in the air, I suggest taking a Dramamine an hour before – that is what I did. I had an awesome time and did not feel sick. Thank you so much! We can't wait to come back.
My son and I took the Boston and Harbor Islands tour this morning and it did not disappoint. It lived up to all the 5 Star reviews! Online booking was easy; our pilot, Hans, was great; and the views spectacular. I hope to book another one of their tours soon. As a lifelong Boston resident, I highly recommend ????
We had an amazing experience. I was apprehensive prior to going but the pilot assuaged all my fears. He was confident and very reassuring. He was polite and pleasant too. My husband and I had a wonderful time and plan to do it again.
Just did this with my wife for our anniversary. We absolutely loved it.Would totally recommend to anyone interested in this!Our pilot, Robin, was fantastic and provided us a very safe and fun flight!
Had my introductory helicopter lesson today. Hans was my instructor, he was absolutely amazing! He was very informative, highly professional, a great teacher, and an overall great guy. If you have any interest in learning, I would highly recommend going here. 10 out of 10 would do again
I usually never write reviews but our experience was great! Finding the location was super easy, parking right out front and the check-in was quick. Just walked in and said our name. Our appointment was for 1pm but we ended up getting taken out at 12pm which was awesome. We did the waivers online so there was no hassle. The guy at the front desk (didn’t catch his name) was super nice! Asked if it was our first time and made us feel welcomed. Even talked about skydiving!! The ride on the kart was smooth and we learned about the private charter planes. Our pilot (Alex I think) was super straight to the point when it came to the safety portion! He was super knowledgeable and checked in every few times to tell us what path he was going to take. The ride was super smooth too! I got some killer photos. Would definitely do again with more family members!
This is an amazing trip. You will enjoy a safe smooth ride all over Boston and see the city in a way that will really excite you. The whole experience is exceptional, take a tour of Boston's beaches as well.Alex is an awesome pilot, safe and efficient. They have a comfy lounge to relax in.
Amazing experience! Unfortunately i got a little sick mid flight but our pilot, Alex, was very relaxed and kind. The staff was very polite
They offered me half refund or a rescheduled when I took the tour at a cloudy day for Sunset, I didn’t ask for it but they offer it. Glad that I choose to give another chance, I wish I can post some videos if I can, no words can describe the experience and how beautiful the view is. pilot drive me to the helicopter and set up whatever needed. I think I will comeback with my mother next time, she should share this moment with me. Amazing incredible memory
Flew with Hans for a lesson/tour. One of the best experiences I’ve ever had.He was calm, level headed and amazing to fly with. I was pretty nervous going into the experience (was a birthday surprise from my wife, I didn’t know I was doing this until we got there. He helped calm me down and gave perfect advice. By the end I wished it was longer and felt a lot more confident.I didn’t think I’d want to try this again but I am really excited to.Thank you so much Hans!
An amazing experience! Informative, fun, safety conscious, and friendly. Two loops so everyone had a good view of everything was a nice touch. I would definitely recommend them to anyone.
Such an awesome experience. My son loved it and my wife was literally on top of the moon as it was our wedding anniversary and we took the date up in the skies over Boston. Love it love it love it. Braveen was so kind and Rob our pilot gave us great tour.. definitely add this to your bucket list.
