Really good experience, however I don’t think the back middle seat should be used. Being in the middle with restricted views really detracts from the experience. When you’re spending $250 per person, you want your monies worth.

I am very disappointed with the helicopter ride I recently booked with this company. The service was very unfair and unprofessional. Despite requesting to sit in the front seat for my birthday, my request was ignored, and we were placed in seats where the only thing we could see was the ocean. We did not get to enjoy the views that were the main reason for booking this experience, while other passengers were given the best seats. The staff showed no concern for our situation, and overall the service was poor and dismissive. Considering the amount we paid, this was extremely disappointing and far from the experience we were promised.

My husband booked this as a birthday gift, but unfortunately, it turned out to be a very disappointing experience. The schedule was not followed, and there was no clear or timely communication regarding the delay. It was evident that proper checks weren’t conducted before the trip—my headset didn’t work at all, so I couldn't hear any of the live commentary from the pilot. It was completely silent throughout. After the trip, when I raised this issue at the reception, the staff response was dismissive and unhelpful. Based on this experience, I wouldn’t recommend this activity to any of my friends.
