Vancouver: Coastal Mountain Landing Helicopter Tour

1.Coastal Mountain Landing Helicopter Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 22 reviews · 45 - 75 minutes · from $361Our pick

Fly from Pitt Meadows with an English-speaking pilot over farms, Pitt Lake, waterfalls, forests, and snow-capped peaks. The 30-minute flight includes a 15-minute wilderness landing at a mountain peak, alpine lake, or glacier creek bed. Pilots such as Kyle and Daniel are known for thoughtful local commentary.

“My pilot was crazy knowledgeable about the area we were flying to. She pointed out where movies had been filmed, where bears feed on wild blueberries in the summer. We flew through a rainbow!! Taking this flight in January was stunningly beautiful with the snow dusted mountains, low clouds, and the blueish green water. We landed in a river bank before heading back. I would highly recommend this adventure to anyone that has the time and money.”

Vancouver: BC Backcountry Helicopter Tour

2.BC Backcountry Helicopter Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 15 reviews · 30 - 90 minutes · from $305Best value

Fly with SKY Helicopters above British Columbia’s west coast backcountry for 30, 45, 60, or 90 minutes. Your English-speaking pilot shares the story of the area as you pass steep peaks, alpine lakes, forests, rivers, and waterfalls. Flights hold up to five people and change with the day’s weather.

“Absolute 5-stars from start to finish. Robin - the shuttle driver - picked us up from the hotel and provided interesting commentary about Vancouver all the way out to the hangar. The helicopters were ready, waiting and super clean. Our pilot gave us a safety briefing and we were off. The mountains and lakes are beyond beautiful, and our pilot seemed completely calm and comfortable the whole time. I absolutely recommend this experience to anyone of any age.”
