A fantastic experience from the moment I booked the surprise experience for our 44th anniversary to the parting conversation with the team after landing. The helicopter was a beautiful machine and obviously maintained to the highest level, such a smooth flight and comfortable interior will make even the most hesitant fliers want to come back for more. Greeted by Kathy upon our arrival and then provided the safety briefing by she, Quinton, and Brianna was very cool and professional. The tour itself showcased one of the most beautiful parts of our province and country perfectly, Quinton piloted us beautifully around Boldt Castle and covered a lot of air showing off the islands and highlights in the area. A very pleasant addition to the flight was Brianna who herself had just piloted a tour in another helicopter asked if she could join us and narrate the highlights and history which was terrific. We highly recommend this experience, we intend to return later in the summer for one of the other tours. Great people, great experience...thank you!! Keith & Susan

Fantastic views and a really engaging and professional pilot. The 20 minutes went so quickly and we enjoyed EVERY minute. Well worth the trek from Kingston. The lady in the office area was an excellent communicator and very friendly.

Great experience, of course 20 minutes fly by, but it was all perfectly organized and worked out great. Thanks to our pilot Quinton, who gave us a lot of information about the 1000 Islands in addition to a great flight!

Such an amazing experience! From the moment you drive up to the helipad to final touchdown, every minute was full of excitement and smiles. Captain George shared tonnes of information about the Islands, Boldt Castle and the region. Totally recommend to anyone!

With a sympathetic pilot, on a sunny morning (11:30am) we enjoyed the view of the beautiful island landscape! Since we also took a boat tour to the island later, I can say that the helicopter perspective remains unforgettable and unique. A clear recommendation from us
