“10/10 - We had an unforgettable helicopter tour with Oliver. Everything was arranged very professionally from beginning to the end. The safety standards are very high and the helicopter was very modern and comfortable with ample vision to take pictures and videos and space for the legs although I am over 6 foot high. The flight in itself was breathtaking as you fly by the Stockhorn and you get a full view on the lake of Thun and the Swiss Alps with the Eiger, Moench and Jungfrau. If you are in the Bernese Alps region, I would definitely recommend booking a flight with Oliver as you will make some unforgettable memories.” - Reviewed on 2024-09-29
