San Francisco Vista Grande Helicopter Tour

Following pickup from a central San Francisco location, transfer to a quiet, comfortable Bell Jet Helicopter for your aerial tour of the city.

Sit back, strap on your seatbelt and enjoy the musical accompaniment as the helicopter flies over the Mission, the Castro, Chinatown, and the Presidio neighborhoods. See iconic landmarks like the Transamerica Pyramid and Coit Tower from above.

Continue your flight by heading out into the greater Bay Area. With informative narration from your expert pilot, view both the Bay Bridge and Golden Gate Bridge, as well as Alcatraz and the Marin Headlands. Fly over Angel Island before returning to your San Francisco landing pad.

Please note: The helicopter can accommodate four or six passengers. There is a minimum of four people required to operate this flight.
