Fantastic

Great experience and out-of-this-world views of Chicago. The flight downtown was exciting and pleasant. Sara our pilot was very friendly and knowledgeable. Being a private ride with just my wife and me, we could see areas we wanted and Sara was more than happy to show us. It might take some time to travel to the airport in Schaumburg from Chicago but it was well worth it. The airport is private so no long lines or hard to find and very friendly. Above the meeting point is a restaurant called Pilot Pete's, fantastic food so go early and eat here you will not regret it. It does become busy so go early and enjoy the food before your flight. One final note. just use Pilot Pete's as the GPS and you are at both places.
Excellent trip!! I gave...

The Amazing Pilot! She definitely did her best to make sure we enjoyed every moment. Also she went out of her way to take us to the helicopter on a ATV. More than appreciated her kindness. She opened both doors of the helicopter for us. Also helped my gf down the helicopter Sense she was wearing heels. Also took beautiful pictures for us <3

Steve was amazing. My partner and I went for my birthday and as someone who is afraid of heights… i had fun. Chicago is beautiful. Even better when you’re flying privately in the sky. Steve was phenomenal. Very friendly and made being in the air fun. I definitely recommend bringing someone to enjoy this 45 min ride with.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it 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. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
