What Our Passengers Say

★★★★★

"Did the Hill Country tour for my parents' 40th anniversary last March. My mom is terrified of heights but Buck talked her through everything before we even got in. She was laughing by the time we flew over Pedernales Falls. Only downside - now she won't stop talking about doing it again lol"

★★★★☆

"Really cool experience! We did the skyline tour around 6pm and got to see the Congress bridge bats starting to come out. Buck knows a ton about Austin history. Taking off one star only because I wish it was a little longer - 25 min goes by SO fast when you're up there. Already planning to do the longer Hill Country one next time."

★★★★★

"Surprised my fiancée with this for her birthday. She had no idea where we were going until we pulled up. The Skyhawk helicopter is super smooth and the views of the vineyards out toward Fredericksburg were unreal. Buck even circled back over this one spot so I could get a better photo. 10/10 would recommend for anyone wanting to do something different."
