When we returned a goodie basket full of chocolates, a t-shirt, champagne flutes, and peach wine was waiting in a cozy little room. Highly recommend!!Written July 26, 2024
- johnwalkerp0 contributionsCo-Pilot Daniel.We have flown many helicopter tours, but, this experience was easily the best. The pilot, Tyler and the boarding attendant in particular, Taylor, paid attention to every aspect of this trip. They even put our six-year-old grandson in the front, (he thought he was a co-pilot) and it was first class from start to finish, just brilliant, thanks, guys. John, Jine and co-pilot, Daniel.Written July 21, 2024

- Kristy H0 contributionsWonderful Douglas Lake Reroute Trip!We did a reroute of Douglas Lake and it was beautiful. We have two boys, age 4 and 2, and staff was great with them. Jameson was our boarding attendant and took great pictures. He even put his sunglasses on our 4 year old because the sun was in his eyes during pictures. Galen was our pilot and he is definitely one of a kind! We had a smooth ride and he was very informative of the area. He was patient with our boys while they were yelling in the headsets and at the end he gave them some pilot wings. 100% recommend these guys if you are looking for a flight!! Thank you Galen for the awesome experience in the sky and all the staff at Scenic!Written July 6, 2024

- K3033TPconniem0 contributionsEnjoy a birds eye view!My husband and I had never taken a helicopter ride before and I had only been on a plane once, so I was a little nervous. That didn't last long though. Once we were up in the air, I enjoyed it very much as well as my husband. Our pilot was Scott. He did a great job, not only flying but also by making me feel comfortable. We rode on one of the bigger helicopters. Definitely want to do it again!Written June 30, 2024

We had an overall enjoyable experience. Only reason I didn't give it a 5 rating is because I think the prices were very high for the short amount of time you spend in the air. They do offer a small discount with a coupon code though. Our pics came out great and were very reasonably priced. I loved flying over the Parkway and seeing the mountain ranges. Pilot was friendly and took good care of us. Once in a lifetime experience for sure!

My birthday is July 14th, gift to myself and sons. First time in a helicopter we loved every minute. Wished I would’ve rode longer. Our pilot was very informative of everything around us, made us comfortable riding, gave my son the best experience ever. Did I mention he was terrified of heights but rode a second time willingly lol thank you guys again for everything.

This was our first helicopter ride and we were thrilled! Our pilot was amazing and he was very willing to answer any question we had. The staff was friendly and helpful. And our tour was the highlight of our visit to Pigeon Forge! We hope to do it again someday.

My husband and I did this for our honeymoon to step out of our comfort zone. We are both afraid of heights and flying so we decided to give it a go. We had an awesome time and out pilot was cool he gave us the tour while we were flying over wears valley and gave us a little history as well. He asked us how high we wanted to go and said if we were uncomfortable at any point that he could fly lower. Very impressed with how nice the staff were as well! My only disappointment was the lost the original photos that were taken so we had to do some "fake" photos. No big deal we still got our pictures. I would have liked to see the genuine surprise on our face however. Overall a very cool experience. I would do it again! I think my husband actually liked it more than me.

We took the evening flight last night and it was FANTASTIC!!!! This was my first time in a helicopter and it was totally amazing!!! This was the highlight of our trip and we will never forget it. Our plot, Scott was the greatest! He was very entertaining and full of information. The boarding attendant, Caden, took great pictures of us preparing for the flight and taking off. (Caden, it think you had a great first day! We LOVE all the pictures.) Everyone was so friendly, professional, and genuinely interested in making sure we had a great time. We felt like family and not just another tour package. The magic began when we walked through their doors. I highly recommend this company and trip to everyone!!! You want be sorry!

They just made my sons day with his very first helicopter ride ever. He was so nervous and they put him right at ease and left him beaming when he got off. Jay convinced him to ride up front and Sam made the ride totally worth every penny.

I wanted to do something different while we were in the area and make this a memorable vacation. I found these tours and decided to book being my husband and daughter had never flown on a helicopter.
I chose the National Park tour as we were headed to the Smoky Mountains the next day and wanted to get a preview of the park. The ride itself was about 25 minutes long and was over way too soon. We loved it up there and could have spent all day up there. It was $250 a piece but well worth it. Husband and daughter couldn't quit raving about it.
When we arrived we checked in, had to get weighed then were sent outside where Jay the photographer talked to us while they were getting the helicopter ready. When the helicopter was ready we were escorted to it, had a few pictures taken and then introduced to our pilot Collin. While we were in flight we were talking to Collin and found out had just moved from our area of the country. Collin was great at answering our questions as they came up.
It was over way too soon. Can't wait to go back if we are ever in the area again.

This is our third time here, and this time we took the Wears Valley tour in a Robinson R44 with Rico as pilot. We just had a great time. Rico talked about what we were seeing and answered all our questions. The ride was much smoother than I expected. I really can't say enough for this place. We'll be back fir another tour in a year.
