Awesome! Great for memories! I felt like the Red Baron! Would do it again in a heartbeat. Great pilot! Worth the cost and time.
I had no Idea what to expect but it was the most fantastic airplane ride I have ever had. It was smooth, visibility was excellent, the pilot was competent. All in all an awesome experience
Amazing biplane flight. Nathan was an awesome pilot. Worth every penny. Don't hesitate to book your flight. Ought to be MUCH higher than 13 on list of things to do in Galveston.
Breathtaking experience. Cannot define in words. Funfilled. Pilot was awesome. Time I will remember for life and cherish memory.
first ride and it was awesome. our pilot ethan was awesome, he gave nice introduction, took care of our needs and most importantly flew really well. we got little bit of uneasiness in stomach towards the end, given ot was our first time, but he received our signal and immediately headed back. galveston looked so beautiful from up in the air. watching the cruise ships from the top was different as i have never seen what happens inside those ships. overall wonderful experience, would love to do it again.
Perfect weather, awesome pilot and something I will remember. I have done many helicopter tours and enjoy that but this was an entirely different experience. I believe we were traveling at 90 miles an hour and it felt like floating. I would recommend it!
Absolutely a wonderful, fun, and breathtaking experience! Highly recommend for locals as well as visitors. Can't wait to go again.
Great way to see Galveston Island. ride was smooth. The piolet was very competent. Recommend the one hour tour. would definitely do it again.
The ride was smooth and relaxing. I decided to fly on my birthday. The best birthday gift of my life. The pilot (Nathan) took pictures of my dad and I. My dad didn't want to fly, so he sat in the observation deck and took pictures. The weather was perfect. My mom died on my birthday a couple of years ago. Every year I go the cemetery to visit my mom's grave, this year was different. I know my mom would of wanted me to enjoy this flight.
