“Thrill of a Lifetime”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed May 15, 2012

We flew with Phil and had the thrill of a lifetime on a gorgeous Fall afternoon. Ask for the tour of the High Peaks, Whiteface and Lake Placid. Run; don't walk, for this experience ! More

We saw all of Lake Placid including the hotel we stayed at.! You get a great view of the olympic venues and fly right next to the ski jumps. We loved the high peak tour and have great pictures to remember our trip with. What a unique perspective of the area. The service was wonderful. More
