Great trip. - A pleasant location with friendly and helpful staff. Nothing was too much for them. A fantastic tour over the Lake and New Orleans with the Pilot explaining all the locations and views on our trip. A normal day turned into a Great Day.

Grand Views of Mississippi River & Surrounding Area!! - We asked to be taken over the Mississippi River, the bayous, and the tributaries off the Mississippi River which flow on to the Gulf. This was different than the usual sightseeing tour given by this company. Our flight was 60 minutes. Our pilot was awesome, knowledgeable, and explained what he was doing as well as explaining what we were seeing! It was a great experience and would do it again! The price was perfect! My husband and I would recommend this flight company!

Great experience - People were really friendly, both in the communication planning the activity as well as in person. The entrance was a little hard to find but everything that I asked for had been taken care of! We did the 60 min flight and so we had ample time to fly around the bayou, downtown as well as uptown. Great pricing (in my view) as well, would def recommend it!

Average wouldn’t do it again - The guide was very professional and his landing skills were superb. As for the tour, I did not enjoy it. There was no air conditioning and extremely hot. The aircraft battery was dead and the pilot had to run inside to get the cables to jump the battery. So we sat inside the aircraft sweating while patiently waiting. The aircraft was very old. I guess for my first aerial tour and the price I paid (over $300) I expected better views, AC and more comfort.
