Whistler Helicopter Tour + Mountain Landing - is the best experience I’ve had during my short stay in Whistler. We were all greeted by a very nice receptionist (? Maggie) who helped us with the formalities before boarding the helicopter. We were in air for good 25 minutes in the air and even landed on the mountain for 20 minutes. The views while in the air and on the mountain were spectacular. Our pilot Andy was amazing! He made sure we were safe, directed our attention to the mountain peaks and glacier lakes while we were in air, and made the whole trip more wholesome. Try it out at least once, it’s worth it!!!
Definitely the highlight of my trip to Whistler! Adam was the perfect pilot - friendly, informative and highly skilled.
Outstanding experience, total trip time 55 minutes with 20 minutes on the mountain top. Pilot was helpful and thoroughly professional. All in all 10/10 as an experience.
Wow, what a lovely crew. This was a really nice experience. Professional & Personal.
The only negative of this is that there should be more stars! This was worth so many more. So I’ll add them myself. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🤩 Apologies in advance as the excitement and trepidation took away my ability to remember names (other than Rosie, as I have her on email!) but I can’t remember our driver nor pilot names but 200% full credit to them all! From the minute we booked, and the questions we had, Summit Helicopters could not have been a better experience. As (nervous ✅, scared ✅) first timers, they put our minds at ease from the get go. Fast forward a couple of months until ‘D-Day’ and they were just as great. We arrived, were totally put at ease and, funnily enough, dropped our fears immediately. After a short safety briefing, we were boarded and up, up and away. We were both so very surprised as to how smooth the take off, flight, just everything was. The commentary was informative without being overwhelming and the whole flight was just surreal. To land up on one of those HUGE peaks and feel like you’re standing on top of the world is something neither of us will ever forget. Thank you guys for looking after us, showing us the most spectacular sights and, most importantly bringing us down safely and leaving our fears behind. 1000% recommend!
Amazing tour, with great information from our pilot Doug about the area. Absolutely stunning views of the mountains and surrounding areas.
Amazing Views! Adam, out helicopter guide and operator, told us about the area, glaciers, took pictures in the glacier and more! Do not miss this adventure!
Was absolutely wonderful.. Best helicopter trip ever... The scale of the landscape .. The staff were all welcoming...
Amazing experience, the views were fantastic. Must do for anyone. Adam, the pilot, was terrific and knowledgeable.
Just do it! Worth it! The mountain and lakeside stop made it extra special. Friendly staff. A nice drive over even!
