Fantastic flight around Whistler but unfortunately no mountain landing due to clouds which was a disappointment.

Awesome beauty!

Chris_C, Feb 2025
Fantastic! If you are considering doing this, you should! Incredible way to take in the indescribable beauty here. It was amazing. The pilot and staff were professional and we felt safe!

Amazing experience! A must do when you're in Whistler. .

This was a truly an amazing experience, flying over Whistler, Blackcomb and surrounds. We had perfect weather once we were up and it was clear and sunny. The landing on Rainbow Mountain was amazing and we got some great pictures. It was so clear and quiet up there and not even cold. We were very lucky with the weather. As far as the operators of the helicopter tour, Blackcomb Helicopters - we could not fault them. They were professional, informative and the price was very reasonable in our opinion. We had a slight delay at the beginning due to some fog, but this was unavoidable and was communicated to us straight away. The staff in the office were friendly and helpful too. We also appreciated the shuttle back to Whistler village at the end. I would highly recommend doing this tour if you are in Whistler and have great weather and want to get a birdseye view of the area. We would definitely do it again!

Really Amazing!!!!

AnaLuisa_L, Dec 2024
It’s an incredible and an unforgettable experience, don’t miss it!!!! We enjoyed every second, the view is spectacular!

A Must Do!

Rebecca_R, Oct 2024
Absolutely incredible experience. Wish it was longer. First flight was grounded due to poor visibility, the team were so helpful in rescheduling us via the app. I was nervous as I’ve never been in a helicopter before but it was as easy as taking a lift. Thank you Nick and the lovely lady on reception who checked us in.

Exceeded expectations

Elizabeth_F, Oct 2024
An incredible experience! We were on our honeymoon and decided to do something memorable, and a helicopter ride fit the bill. The ride exceeded our expectations. Nick, our pilot, made the flight fun with twists and turns, but ensuring we felt safe at all times. He was extremely friendly and funny. The landing on top of a mountain was incredible. It was so quiet and remote. The scenery was stunning. It was an experience we will always remember.

Anniversary tour

Angela_C, Sep 2024
We were celebrating our 40th anniversary. This adventure was so fun and memorable. Nick was a great pilot and guide.

Parent's 60th Birthday Surprise

I booked this excursion for my parents as a surprise for their 60th birthday. It was their first time in BC and Alberta and this was the HIGHLIGHT of their trip. They would recommend this to anyone and I hope to go myself on my next trip to Whistler. Thank you so much for giving my parents such an amazing experience!

Breathtaking

Great experience and awesome staff!! Beautiful views and well worth the cost of the excursion. Will book again!

Perfect way to spend our 25th Wedding Anniversary!!

Nancy_S, Jul 2024
Flying over the glacier and seeing all of the crevasses up close was just amazing. And while landing on the mountain looked like it could never work, it was phenomenal once we were landed and could walk around and take in the view.

God's landscape

Best flight ever

Eric, Jun 2024
From the moment we arrived to check in for a flight, the staff was super friendly and welcoming. Our pilot was great also. He was very knowledgeable and entertaining during the entire ride.

Best excursion ever

Jeremy_M, Jun 2024
This was one of the coolest things I’ve ever done in my life. Our pilot was amazing and hilarious with his jokes, and all of his knowledge about the surroundings was educational and is so cool definitely worth the money and the trip up to Whistler. It made my whole vacation amazing. It was very easy to check in and sign our waivers on site. The front desk was awesome and so was the crew very clean and professional.

Amazing!

Alexia_O, Feb 2024
This was the best experience ever!!! Nick our pilot went above and beyond, pointing out different mountains and history of them. Luckily, we were able to land on Rainbow peak and it was absolutely beautiful! Definitely recommend this trip for anyone who comes!

Book it

Omg this place is a great and such a wonderful experience. The two ladies in front were warm and welcoming. You see a crucial safety film and then you fly off and land on some glaciers. And come back for some warm tea.

Great experience, professional crew team!

Elina_J, Oct 2023
Great experience, professional crew team! It was a bday gift and everyone loved it! I wish the timing would have been longer ;)

Unbelievable Sights

Orlando_S, Oct 2023
Overall the tour was outstanding. Our helicopter pilot and tour guide, Jif (sp?) was great. Throughout our ride he pointed many areas of interest and on our landing he shared insightful information about the wild life in the area and search and rescue operations that occur occasionally. Plus he noted the film site for Stallone’s Cliffhanger movie and Wahlburg’s Shooter movie. It was a great experience!!

Our guide was awesome for...

Melissa_B, Sep 2023
Our guide was awesome for our trip, the views were amazing. It was overall the best tour we have done while being in BC.

Whistler MUST DO - DO NOT miss this one

Egon_w, Sep 2023
Fantastic views and as close to the glacier as you can get. Fantastic mountain landing in the middle of nowhere. Enuf said.

Awesome adventure

Dan_S, Sep 2023
Awesome adventure. Our pilot did a great job and narrated the whole flight. We landed on top of the mountain at a neat little lake. I would recommend this trip anytime.

Absolutely worth every cent!

Brooke_B, Aug 2023
We had an absolute blast with our Whistler Tour. We landed by a beautiful alpine lake and spent a bit admiring the beauty of Whistler. Our pilot was friendly and outgoing, and gave us a ton of info about the areas we were flying over. HIGHLY recommend this tour!

10/10 would fly again

Stanislau_H, Jul 2023
Flying over the mountains and glaciers was a surreal experience. Also got to scout out my next hike to black tusk while flying overhead. Landing in rainbow mountain and glacier was wild. Pilot was great and knowledgeable about the area. She was dope.
