Rainbow Air Helicopter Tours over Niagara Falls 2026

Rainbow Ari Helicopter Tours was a beautiful experience to see Niagara Falls with views of both the American and the Canadian sides. The ride is about 15 minutes long and the helicopter has large windows for viewing and taking photos/videos. The hours are 9-dusk, weather permitting. The Tour offers pick up at select downtown Niagara hotels but it was not needed as there was a large free parking lot at their location at 56 Archeson Drive, Niagara Falls, NY. Call ahead to book and to check if the weather allows the helicopter to fly that day. A short safety film is required before the flight before ear protection is put off before going outside. Clothing cannot be loose and bags even pocketbooks are not allowed for safety. They have lockers to use if needed. The staff are friendly and the facility is very clean. Photos are taken in front of the helicopter before the ride and from each side of the open helicopter doors before they are closed for take off. The photos can be purchased after the ride is over. They have a gift store and fascinating historical displays to enjoy as well. Also there is a Niagara Vitural Gameplay attraction inside the facility wereby you sit in a sling with a virtual 360 degree headset on. You can control your parasailing ride over the falls to score points or just enjoy your Niagara Falls and goat island virtual ride. This can make some people feel dizzy though.

Great experience. We flew over the falls for a fantastic view. Didn’t even feel like we left the ground!

Awesome experience! This is a must for seeing Niagara Falls!! Everyone was extremely friendly and professional.

Had an amazing helicopter ride with my mom! Such an incredible way to see the Falls. We were lucky enough to be the only two passengers on our ride, so we got to sit at front with the pilot, and have an amazing view. Pretty short, ten minutes, but that's all you need to fly over and see the Falls, so really the perfect amount of time.

Great experience! Great for kids and adults!

If you're looking to book with these people make sure your means of commute is certain and you don't get sick last minute because they have no sympathy nor empthaty despite you calling to change reservations 24 to 36 hours before.Is either no answer or they promise you a refund or other to which you won't get then continuous back and forth between the site you book with and the actual merchant.I didn't get insurance because I was certain i am going but life happens and I called to reschedule not cancel and now I'm still without that money and I didn't get that experience smh

This was a great experience. Our 13 year old grandson’s birthday trip! Friendly staff, very informative, and truly nice!! So exciting to see the falls from above… beautiful area.

I saw beautiful views of the water falls. It was neat seeing the falls in the air. It was a different experience seeing Niagara Falls.

Great views and very friendly staff. The only disappointment was that it is advertised as 1 - 1 hr 30 min. The ride is only ABOUT 15 mins. Very disappointing (time wise) for the price. Otherwise it was a memorable experience.

All the staff from the front desk to the pilots were very professional and kind. The experience of seeing Niagra from the helicopter was exciting as it was humbling. I highly recommend the Rainbow helicopter tour to everyone.
