Amazing views! Really enjoyed ourselves! Pilot took some pictures of us in front of the helicopter so we didn't need to buy the one offered by the company - they were $20 for a 5x7.

We had a great time flying with Maverick. Colin is a very skilled pilot and talked us through everything. It’s the first helicopter ride I’ve ever done and you can rest assured that they’re safe and professional.
