This was included in our package from our hotel. We almost didnt get to do it because it was over cast. But then it cleared up! It was such a nice thing to do plus awesome view! And I got to do this with my mom and it was her first time in the air, so that was fun. One... More

I don't know if they'll let me review this attraction because we did this in May of 2008 . I had totally forgotten about this site until I started planning our 2013 vacation other wise I would have posted long ago. My husband and 2 kids took this helicopter ride for my husbands 45th b-day. I wasn't able to go... More

Unbelievable ride! The entire staff at Niagara Helicopter was amazing. They even asked my 7 yr. old daughter if she wanted to ride up front with the pilot. She LOVED it! The ride is super smooth and the view is amazing. We were fortunate enough to fly on a day that was very clear and sunny and saw a rainbow... More

Very professional experience from first enquiry months in advance to the actual helicopter trip on the day itself. Three ladies took the trip including a 74 year old and a 5 year old and they all raved about it. Reasonably priced also.

This was one of the best experiences ever. Although it was only about a 20 minute ride it was enough. It really took my breath away. Well worth the money.

During the Christmas holidays, I took my nephews to Niagara Falls, specifically to take the helicopter ride. We travelled from Hamilton, Ontario, by bus. We then took a cab to Niagara Helicopters. It was a clear day, with a mild and gentle breeze. Our flight had been booked a few days earlier. First, I slipped on some ice on their... More

Our staff man the phones so that clients wishing to fly with us can receive up to the minute weather updates and act accordingly.

We only had 1 full day in Toronto and we chose to do this flight, booked well in advance, left our emails mobile and hotel number, sat on a bus for 2 hours and get there to find out no flight due to winds. Fair enough but a phone call or email would have been nice. Now had to wait... More

Dear Mr. or Ms. Rostagno: We are truly sorry you had a bad experience with our company. Unfortunately this is a situation we see often. We make every attempt to ensure our clients are informed that our attraction is weather-dependant. The issue is that we never know when the weather will change to the point where it will not meet...

I lived in Niagara Falls for 5 years, and I can tell you there are a lot of really cheesy attractions - this is definitely NOT one of the them. Niagara Helicopters is as professional and customer-service oriented as they come. The flight was a wonderful experience with the best view of the falls I've ever had.

I took the first flight out on Dec. 1, 2012 and it was a memorable experience. I was able to sit beside the pilot and although the tour itself only lasted about 12mins., the view was awesome. The pilot make sure people on both side of the helicopter get a good view of the Canadian and American Falls. You also... More

I visited Niagara in autumn of 2012 and took the helicopter flight. Though it is just a 10 minutes flight, but it is highly recommended for tourists. The aerial views are breathtaking and the orientation provided during the flight contains valuable knowledge. Maybe if one experiences the helicopter aerial views, then there is no need to view from Skylon Tower!
