We really enjoyed the trip Sara was such a pleasant helicopter pilot she really gave a personalized tour. It was really windy so we had to change plans and took the 30 minute trip to see the countryside. My mother-in-law really enjoyed her 90th birthday present.

Steve was amazing. My partner and I went for my birthday and as someone who is afraid of heights… i had fun. Chicago is beautiful. Even better when you’re flying privately in the sky. Steve was phenomenal. Very friendly and made being in the air fun. I definitely recommend bringing someone to enjoy this 45 min ride with.
Surprise Heli Date Success!

It wasn’t worth what paid

Wayne our pilot was incredibly nice. The But he was late from the previous tour. We had gotten short changed on our flight ...I was not happy about it. Why I stress that about the time is because after you book this experience they are non-stop texting you not to be late so we were there 45 minutes prior to our flight time because you have to be there a half hour to your flight time so then we had to wait an extra 15 minutes to actually even go on the ride. The time that he was late was not added on to our flight time either so I paid the full amount for less time not because of my doing ;but because of somebody else. I do not think that’s right because time is money. . I feel like if we were informed better that he was running late we could’ve maybe had something to eat while we were waiting Also your private tour should actually be an hour and a half then because it takes forever to get out to the city from the Schaumburg airfields..
Bucket list dream come true

What an amazing time. My Mom has said for years that she wanted to take a helicopter ride so we put it in her bucket list. When we decided to come to Chicago for a game I decided to make that wish come true. The people we dealt with were amazing!!!! The flight was a dream come true and view will be something we will never forget. Thank you so much for helping our dreams come true
Best Skyline View in the city.

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
