- Yee-Guan W0 contributionsExcellent servicePunctual pickup from Hotel Albatros. Short (~10-minute drive) to the base. Training and 15-minute flight took about an hour all-in.Written 25 March 2025
- DebBaxley0 contributionsUnparalleled views of the AndesI found this company in be very professional. I was able to book at the very last minute the day beforehand. They supply transfer to and from the helicopter depot. I chose the 30 minute option, which was fantastic because it showed views of the Andes you’d never see otherwise, and landed on top of the mountain next to a beautiful hidden lake. The views were fantastic, the experience was great, highly recommend!Written 22 March 2025

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Absolutely amazing experience, flying close to the mountain range to enter into the valley of wetlands. Nicolas was our super friendly pilot, providing the necessary heli flying skills as well as some interesting explanation on the landscape. We would recommend this activity for sure when visiting Ushuaia!

He's never been in a helicopter and now I'd be flying him. Gabriela, very kind, everything impeccable, the preparation for the flight and the flight itself. Both the ascent and the descent, very smooth. The pilot was very kind, explaining everything. If I had the resources, I would go again. It's expensive, but it's worth it!!!!
