We are rated as one of the country’s best tour operators on Tripadvisor, reflecting our staff who always provide exceptional service with care.

Helicopter Tours operates one AS 350 B2 Ecureuil, and one AS 350 B3 Ecureuil helicopters. Or as we refer to them as, Astars. This helicopter model has 5 passenger seats, one next to the pilot at the front, and 4 seats at the back. All seats are guaranteed a good 180 degree view. Astars are great for special aerial work, slinging, filming etc.

In June 2023, Helicopter Tours took into operation an Airbus EC 130 helicopter. The EC130 helicopters are one of the most popular air touring helicopters and were actually designed for sightseeing tours in Hawaii. The Airbus seats 6 passengers, 2 in the front, and 4 in the back. Each passenger has a great 180°view as the back row is elevated to see above the front seats.
