The LA Dodger games usually affects the Downtown LA portion of our tours.

My girlfriend and I wanted to experience something different and romantic
We took the helicopter ride with pilot and Owner Peter, who was fantastic
Once I got past verse VIATOR to reach Peter directly, we knew it was going to be a great experience. His originally from Ireland and very professional, and his wife was very welcoming when we arrived.
They worked with us because our flight ended up being late coming from Houston with TSA problems and allowed us to move it an hour later since there was availability
I’ll definitely go back there when I return and look to do it at night time with all the city lights
Thank you all for a great experience for our eight hours that we were in Los Angeles

My partner and I took a tour of the L.A area with Group 3 aviation, and it was amazing! The pilot Peter was a true professional and just a lovely person. Not only did he make us feel completely safe, but he provided fun and engaging through the flight. Peter and the ride were just wonderful!

I cannot say enough great things about this tour. It was my husband’s first time in a helicopter, and we had an absolute blast. The scenery was phenomenal. This is definitely a bucket list experience and worth every penny!

First time on a helicopter and it was a fantastic experience. I felt safe the whole time and got to see beautiful beaches (my favorite), downtown skyscrapers (so close!), Hollywood sign and much more. Peter, the pilot / owner was great too. Highly recommend! Best activity of our trip.

This was our first helicopter ride. Our guide was so helpful and made us feel very comfortable. I highly recommend this experience. A must do for visiting LA.
Response from Host, Jul 2024

Your review helps our team and it helps other travelers to make an informed decision on 'things to do' in Los Angeles. Hope you come back again! Thank you from the entire Group 3 Helicopter Crew!

Our pilot Peter was excellent. Never rushed, explained everything concisely. The route was extensive, and we saw the whole of Los Angeles. Yes, it is expensive, and it was a treat, but I would say it was worth every penny. Possibly once-in-a-lifetime experience, but if you can afford it, certainly do it. It was magical.
Response from Host, Jul 2024
Thank you Ramsay for your kind review. We are so pleased that you all enjoyed your helicopter flight over Los Angeles with us.
Thank you again. Peter & Claudia

Thank you Michael for your kind review. We are pleased that your family enjoyed your experience

Great experience with great views. Panoramic views, highly recommend. It’s so good to have a “helicopter” view of a large city like LA. It would be nearly impossible to see all of that from ground. We were in good hands and were given an excellent overview of LA and it’s surrounding.
Response from Host, Apr 2023
Thank you for sharing this. It is indeed a wonderful way to see LA. We are glad you all enjoyed the flight and adventure. Come back and see us again.
