I’ve never been on a plane or a helicopter before and this experience was so easy and relaxing! 12 mins in the air felt like longer! Great staff that will help make your experience one to never forget! Will be coming back for a longer trip next time!

10/10! We live near Boston and have been to Newport before. This was a totally new and fun way to see it! The operator was very flexible in booking a time to accommodate another activity we were trying to squeeze into the same day. Call directly if you don’t see a time that works for you. They confirmed by email and sent excellent directions re: parking, etc. Check in was quick & easy. Staff were friendly & helpful. The whole experience was seamless and stress-free. My teenagers loved it. We used a Groupon (bonus)! Highest recommendation!

The views were amazing! What an incredible adrenaline rush when the helicopter first lifts off the ground. Our pilot was very knowledgeable about the area and we had an amazing time.

We all loved the scenic ride and our pilot was very informative of the views we flew over. Maybe we’ll do the providence tour next.

Everything looks different from above! My family from out-of-town loved seeing the sights from a different angle but I highly recommend this for locals as well as visitors. Loved seeing favorite spots including my own house from the sky.

Smooth, safe ride. Pilot was kind and informative. The only problem is that my son now wants to do this everyday! Thank you for the wonderful experience.

Today's tour was an amazing birthday gift from my husband. Our pilot was well versed in the area and provided great insight into the Narragansett Bay area, islands, light houses and mansions. We look forward to our next excursion with them.
