THEY DON’T HAVE A HELICOPTER
Nayama_L
, Dec 2020
When I arrived in the company the attendant said that “THEY DON’T HAVE A HELICOPTER” I thought that was joke cause they sell helicopter rides, and that was what I paid for 2 weeks before when I booked it. During this time I didn’t receive any email telling about this “simple” detail. I asked for a refund and I left super frustrated :(

We got engaged on the runway before flight! The views were breathtaking and it was well worth what we paid. Wish we could of done the longer trip but I definitely recommend this. There is also a place to grab a bit to eat before the flight. The back seat was snug but comfortable don’t bring a big jacket.

Poor management.

They delayed and changed my tour several times. And we are not happy about it. Our tour was for Monday they changed to Tuesday and then they changed to Wednesday. We are not yet sure if even Wednesday would happen or not because they cancelled our tour in the past too.

Please understand, management's decision to offer a refund on Monday was related to maintenance-- which management takes very seriously. You indicated you were flexible and wanted to wait. We apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused. Management considers the safety of guests and pilots alike to be paramount and will always err on the side of safety. Since your tour did in fact take place on Wednesday, it would be great to see an update to your experience.

My husband and kids did this tour and LOVED it!!! I wasn’t interested in doing it until they told me all about it. We are planning another trip to Tahoe this winter just to take a sunset tour. The pilot was super friendly and everything went so smooth. Fantastic experience!!!
