Amazing

Our pilot was knowledgeable about what we flew over and the area. The support staff was amazing, they took a photo of us with the helicopter before we took off. We got the most amazing pictures and videos. They are called 5 Star for a reason, we give them a 10 out of 10. I highly recommend it we got 5 star treatment the entire time.
