Everyone knows that our Orlando attractions are quite the sight to see but have you ever considered the amazing aerial views? With a wide range of companies and offerings, we think helicopter tours in Orlando should make your bucket list of things to do.
Here are some of the Best Helicopter Rides In Orlando:
MaxFlight Helicopter Services' tour explores the Four Corners of Central Florida, including helicopter tours of Disney Celebration to Universal Studios | Orlando, SeaWorld | Orlando and surrounding areas. One perk of flying with this company is the availability of both day and night flights. MaxFlight also offers rentals for special events like wedding proposals and video shoots.
Air Force Fun Helicopter Tours offer six different tours ranging from 4-5 minutes to 20-25 minutes, with the latter roving over a dozen attractions, including SeaWorld | Orlando, Universal Studios | Orlando, and Disney World. The company's offices speak English, Spanish and Portuguese, making booking easily navigatable for many international tourists.
Soar Above The City With A Helicopter Tour In Orlando
HeliTours | Orlando and Kissimmee
The HeliTours helicopter tour in Kissimmee explores the theme parks, but also offers a tour that crosses the Butler Chain of Lakes. On this 65 mile tour, you'll fly over famous Florida homes, including that of Tiger Woods, Ken Griffey Jr., and Vince Carter. HeliTours | Orlando and Kissimmee operate out of the Orlando Executive Airport for anyone looking for a tour starting close to downtown Orlando. Their website does not have their tours listed, but Living Social currently offers a night flight for two (or four) that includes glasses of champagne. This team can also often be found at fairs and music festivals.
And finally, there is Air Florida Helicopter Charters Inc. They might offer the most extensive range of tours, with nine listed offerings. The Orlando Helicopter Tours include flights over the theme parks, International Drive, Downtown Orlando, and Lake Apopka.
If you are sold on a helicopter flight, we have a few hints that might prove helpful. Great deal packages can often be found on coupon websites like Living Social and Groupon. Flight packages are often sold in pairs, so solo riders should specify if they are alone to avoid being surprised with a double charge at checkout. Infants can often go on flights, and those interested in flying with a lap-riding child should inquire about infant rates. And finally, while a drunk helicopter ride may sound to some like a great idea, customers should avoid intoxication before a flight or risk being turned away at the tarmac.
