The helicopter ride was amazing! Hands down one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. All of the staff was so nice, from the ladies at the front desk to the pilot, everyone was great! If you’re doing this with your significant other, definitely add the romance package, it was worth it!
Awesome Experience

Short but fun trip over the city. It was very hard to hear the pilot at times because of hearing problems. Really scheduled this for our adult grandchildren and they loved it. Provided an interesting view of the Lake and water alignment in the city, which would be difficult to see any other way
Exhilarating

This was a lot of fun! The hosts were kind and courteous and the tour was informative. It was a unique way to see the city and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this to our friends and family when visiting NOLA.
Worth It!

Amazing experience. Our Pilot Cameron made the ride smooth and relaxing and was very knowledgeable about New Orleans history throughout the flight. We did the $20 photo package and got some cool pictures with great poses in front of the helicopter as well as plenty of cell phone pics from the flight.
Loved it 🥰

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
