Great experience for my eleven year-old! - We took the tour to celebrate my son's eleventh birthday. Our pilot made it an extra-special experience for him, inviting my son to sit with him in front of the helicopter, taking time to explain how everything worked before and during the flight to the private mountaintop landing pad. It was a magical experience for a child who loves helicopters.

Amazing Day - Jonathan was an amazing pilot! He put us at ease and told us about Ketchikan. We saw juvenile bald eagles. We look forward to another trip in the future.

Clouds and Rain and Still a Great Tour! - We planned for the Top of the World Tour with photographer Liz Garcia joining us to take some couples pics for our Birthdays/Anniversary. Unfortunately too much cloud cover for top of the world so our pilot Sean took us on a beach landing. We were so lucky no rain on the beach and had time for some candid and staged photos with Liz (as well as our own iPhone pics of the gorgeous surroundings!). It was an amazingly quiet spot and Sean was a fabulous pilot - take and landing x2 were fantastic! Would highly recommend!

Top of World in Bas Weather - Great trip even with weather deviations. Did not get to do the "top of the world mountain top stop" - again due to less than desirable weather (welcome to Alaska in early May). Jonathan - our pilot - was great in finding other things to see and do. We landed on the same place on Georgia Bay and think the final leg of Mahoney Falls into Georgia Bay that we had done 9 years ago. Would highly suggest Ketchikan Helicopters and Jonathan for an amzing flight - hopefully in better weather.

Weather kept us from the... - Weather kept us from the top of the world tour. Tyler,our pilot, took us to a spot that has gorgeous views of area. He was able to get up close spawning salmon, we found some beautiful sea shells and he was very informative of the area. We had a fantastic tour. The staff was very helpful . Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Awesome way to start your day in Ketchikan - While the stop on top of the mountain was cool, the best part of the flight was zigging through the Tongass Forest. Saw a herd of mountain goats high up on a ridge. Our pilot Tyler was exceptional, providing commentary about what we saw and taking pictures of us at the Top of the World stop. Highly recommend this outing.

Flight cancelled due to weather. - Be prepared for your flight to be cancelled as the weather in Ketchikan is so rainy. Ours was cancelled a couple of hours before flight time. So disappointing.
