Helicopter Tours

When my husband and I went on our honeymoon we went para sailing.  I was petrified, but it was definitely a great experience and I don’t regret it.  I am not sure now that I would do it again, now that I am older and starting to live more carefully.  I don’t take risks like I used to because now that I am a mom and wife, I want to make sure I am around to take care of them.

One experience I would like to take advantage of at some point is taking a helicopter tour.  It just seems like a safer way to be up in the air and yet still experience something exciting.  Something about the helicopter blades whirling around and whipping me up in the air, sounds like it would be exciting!  I don’t know much about any other helicopter parts but I guess I wouldn’t need to know about them.

I do worry though every time I fly on an airplane though about repairs, so I would of course be worried about helicopter repairs.  I suppose I would just have to trust that the helicopter was checked and is certified to go.  I would also be more comfortable knowing that md helicopter parts were used and are certified.

I don’t know where I would even catch a helicopter tour, but I recall seeing the tour in Las Vegas.  It would be exciting to catch a helicopter tour over the Grand Canyon or Hover Dam.  I don’t know that I would take my kids up, at least until I have been up first so I know what to expect.  I think though when my boys are older, it would be a nice family experience for the four of us to go up and take a helicopter tour together!  I know my husband would especially love it because he used to go skydiving before we got married.

I would love to know if any of you have any helicopter experiences.

  • Don't worry too much, any helicopter tour company takes strict measures to make sure they are up to par and safe for their clients. Do some research on a company beforehand though to check on their safety record and any customer reviews, that might help ya out.

  • My hubby and I took a short Helicopter ride over the Smoky mountains in Tennessee when we were on our honeymoon a few years ago! It was very fun, but a little scary at times. I would do it again. It was a great way to see the mountains.
