Full description

Picture yourself lifting off from our seaside helipad, the city's pulse fading away as you ascend into the wide-open sky. The helicopter's bubble windows offer a front-row seat to breathtaking vistas. As you soar to cruising altitude, the sparkling waters of Sausalito and Tiburon come into view, their charm meeting the coastline with a warm embrace.
Prepare to be entranced by orbital views as you embark on a journey that traces the footprints of history over the legendary Alcatraz and Angel Island. These islands, each with their own stories etched into the very rock they rest upon, reveal a new perspective from the air.
Next, your airborne escapade turns towards Downtown San Francisco, a dazzling urban expanse that sprawls beneath you. Oracle Park, the revered home of the MLB World Champion San Francisco Giants, welcomes you with open arms as you glide over its arena.

A breathtaking tapestry of Midtown San Francisco comes into view, with the iconic Alamo Square and the Painted Ladies painting a colorful picture of city life. As you circle Golden Gate Park, a haven of museums and gardens, you'll realize that this adventure is not just a tour—it's an exploration of San Francisco's heart and soul.

The pièce de résistance is none other than the majestic Golden Gate Bridge. Its iconic span connects the past with the present, a testament to human engineering and creativity. As you soak in the grandeur of the bridge, your journey carries you to Sausalito, a serene town that feels like a world away.

But every adventure must find its way back to solid ground. Your return path traces the coastline near Angel Island, offering a last glimpse of its tranquil beauty. The helicopter's whirring rotor announces your landing on the Richardson Bay helipad, marking the end of a truly unforgettable experience.

An adventure of a lifetime! The helicopter tour not only showcased the mesmerizing beauty of the Golden Gate Bridge but also treated us to panoramic views of Alcatraz Island and the city's hilly landscapes. The smooth ride and knowledgeable pilot made this an unforgettable journey.
