Saturday: Niagara Falls Helicopter Tour - View the awe-inspiring Niagara Falls from the air! This 12 minute helicopter flight is available from 9:00 am until sunset and you must indicate your preferred time on the order form.

As you lift off, the gorgeous views of the region appear below you, allowing for excellent photo opportunities! While in the air, you will have onboard commentary available in several different languages. Beginning with the Sir Adam Beck Generating Plant and the Niagara Parks Commission School of Horticulture, the tour follows the Niagara River from the Whirlpool area, over the Whirlpool Rapids and the Rainbow Bridge. The green grass and floral beauty of Queen Victoria Park stretches below as the aircraft passes by American Falls and the Skylon Tower. Just when it looks as if you may reach the Minolta Tower, the helicopter begins to change direction as if following the curve of the Canadian Horseshoe Falls. Rainbows appear and disappear from all directions and the helicopter begins to level off on its return to the heliport. The 12 minute flight certainly provides many Highlights of Niagara Falls!

Reservation times are available at 6:00 pm, 6:30 pm, 8:30 pm, and 9:00 pm. You must designate your time preference on the order form.
