Took my wife on a sunset flight w/flowers and it was amazing. It was an early evening flight and cooler than anything mid day. We met owner Juan on arrival and my wife was immediately out at ease by his professional but easy going demeanor. Our pilot, Drew, was a young and confident pilot with home an easy rapport was quickly established. Was very happy to take this opportunity on our first day here, and despite all the other terrific tours we took while in San Antonio, this Alamo Helicopter Sunset tour w/a dozen roses for my wife was off the hook amazing and literally way above all the rest of the tours. Thank you Juan and Drew. J&D😎😇

My husband surprised me with this Austin Tour in October for our Anniversary. It was great! The pilot is VERY thorough with preflight instructions on safety and checking his equipment. We really enjoyed the tour and got to see Austin from a very unique view. We loved it so much, I bought it as a gift for my parents AND my daughter and her husband! They took their tours yesterday and we were there to watch! My elderly father, who was NOT really looking forward to it, really, really enjoyed the whole experience!
Highly recommend the tour and the flight tteam! Both were fantastic!

I booked Downtown Austin tour for my family to commemorate my 9 year old son's birthday. I wasn't going to fly with them because the cost was already above my budget, but surprisingly, Alamo Helicopter tour decided that I must join the tour for free. I'm most grateful to the Alamo team for their kindness & helping us enjoy this experience as a family. Everything was spot on, the check in, take off, tour guide up the air, landing & above all, the hospitality.

This is an amazing way to see the Alamo City. The team, from ground crew to pilot was simply awesome. I can't recommend them highly enough. The views of San Antonio from above were awesome even for a long time resident.
If you are looking for something special to do for a family member or visitor from out of town this is the place to go.
On top of all that going to the historic Stinson Field is worth a trip alone, but hoping on a helicopter and flying around town...we that can't be beat.

What a great helicopter tour, we took "The Ultimate Tour" that took us all over San Antonio. My son sat up front and the usually very talkative 10 year old was so awed by the experience that he was mostly stunned in to silence taking it all in with a smile from ear to ear for the entire flight. It was his first flight ever and the best way i can think of to ever make your first flight, much better than a commercial aircraft with a tiny window. The entire staff was great and the pilot was super very knowledgeable very likable and very interesting ... when we were heading to the car to go home my son stopped me and said " best fathers day ever" ... and that right there really says it all. Worth every penny for sure a great way to see San Antonio and just a super fun thing to do! I highly recommend Alamo Helicopter Tours.. I really like that they are located at a smaller airport to you can park right there and walk in and there you are.

Wonderful adventure! The staff was so nice and helpful. They answered any questions we had. It was my son's birthday and they acknowledged it the entire time we were there making him feel it special. The pilot pointed out history and was an interesting and exciting experience! Loved it and can't wait to go again!

Outstanding service and professionalism at its best! Would like to become a rotor wing student at this establishment! Did research and found they are highly rated. From my experience, they are top of the line. Wish I could tour with them every week. My wife and I enjoyed the friendly pilot and staff also.

I took my girlfriend on the Hill Country Tour at 5 PM and it was an awesome experience. We booked about a month in advance and it was a quick and easy booking process. We showed up early, checked in, and were in the air by our scheduled flight time.
If you are not from the area, or want a different view of the San Antonio area this is definitely the company to go to, very professional, knowledgeable, and highly recommend!

This was a suprise gift for my wife's birthday. I'm an aviation nut and when we pulled up to Alamo's office she assumed I was just going to watch the helicopters operate. She - nor I - have ever been in a helicopter so when the crew started talking she suddenly realized what was going on. She had ablast! What a delightful present for her. The staff couldn't have been nicer. Our pilot - I'm sorry I didn't get his name - was great...even when my wife accidentally opened the door in flight! Very highly recommend this company for an air tour of San Antonio. Thanks,Alamo!

My wife and I did this, this past weekend and we had a blast. If your ever in San Antonio I would recommend doing this. My wife never flown before and she enjoyed it other than the turns were rough but with a little wind that happens.

We will be traveling in March '18 and don't know how to drive in San Antonio, do YOU have any available pick up/drop off bus or cab?
Written December 23, 2017
We do not currently have our own transport bus. San Antonio has multiple taxi services, Uber and Lyft and is just a short ride from downtown. We can always assist you with arranging transportation if needed. Hope to see you in March!
