The Helicopter Sightseeing
Experience
The
Experience
Your experience will start with a ferry boat crossing to the
historical Toronto Island Airport. Once you arrive at The
Helicopter Company’s main Base, you will be greeted
by their friendly crew who will provide you with an introduction
to the experience, a safety briefing and assist you with photographs
before departure. You will then board the aircraft and be
lifted high over the city by jet helicopter. The experience
is smooth, safe and comfortable. Sit back, relax and enjoy
the panorama of the Toronto skyline..
Once in the sky, you will see everything from the historical
to the ultra modern – Old Fort York, Casa Loma, Royal
Ontario Museum, the Sky Dome, the CN Tower, and everything
in between. With your Unforgettable Days camera you will be
able to take remarkable aerial pictures of Canada’s
largest city from a bird’s eye view, and capture those
precious Unforgettable moments. Enjoy this Experience of a
lifetime!
