My guide was so nice, and he made me feel comfortable the entire time. If you are scared, don't be. These are professionals who know what they are doing. I honestly have never felt more secure or tranquil in my life. It's a moment, view, and feeling I'll forever remember and cherish.

This was such an incredible experience! Really punctual and efficient with the travel and then getting ready to go once there. Great pilots and the photo service is very quick - take your phone as they will transfer the pictures/video directly to it.
