Beautiful to see Oregon from the skies! - My mom and I booked last minute while on vacation in Portland and we're glad we did! It was so fun! The ride is about 50 minutes in a 5-seater plane, taking you up close to Mt. Hood and along the Columbia River. The pilot was really experienced and the take-off, flight, and landing was really smooth. The views were incredible, for the first point in the trip you are able to see Mt St. Helen, Mt. Adams, and Mt. Hood all in the same vista! You also get the aerial view of several waterfalls along the the Historic Columbia River Highway. We did the driving tour and saw the waterfalls up close that day, so it was awesome to see it from another perspective.

Great tour to see many interesting landmarks in one hour, good job Captain KJ ! - We had a great flight. Our pilot KJ did a great job pointing out points of interest. He was a great pilot, very calm and reassuring. We saw waterfalls and came up close to Mt Hood peak. The weather was fantastic , a little windy but quire clear to see other peaks in the distance. Great tour THANKS !

Absolutely stunning! - Natasha was amazing! We just left and she was so inspirational to me she had a lot of moments where she took her time to explain where we were at! Thank you Natasha and keep up the good work. From a fellow Sacramento native Bre

5 stars amazing flight with K.J.! - 5 Stars – Amazing Flight with K.J.! Just finished a sightseeing flight with K.J., and it was incredible from start to finish. I was extremely nervous at first, but K.J.’s calm and kind demeanor immediately put me at ease. He even asked what kind of music I wanted for the flight—Bob Marley was the perfect choice! K.J. is an excellent pilot. He pointed out all the beautiful sights along the way—waterfalls, bridges, mountains—and made the whole experience feel personal and special. He checked in with us often to make sure we were comfortable and enjoying the ride. I can’t recommend this experience enough. If you’re considering a sightseeing flight, definitely go with K.J.—you’ll be in great hands!

Great to see Mt. Hood and... - Great to see Mt. Hood and Columbia River Gorge from this perspective. The pilot was great and very informative. Only negative was I was searching helicopter tours and on the website (see attached photo) it also appears to be by a helicopter. In front of tour length it has a picture of a helicopter.
