It was such a fun experience! The pilot was very friendly and made the trip even more fun. The views were breathtaking and there was a rush of adrenaline being in the sky!
Amazing but pricey on Viator

We had a great experience, and the pilot was super nice and made the whole experience really fun. Would definitely do it again
Beautiful sunny day in...

Beautiful sunny day in the Columbia gorge with an exciting bit of wind driven turbulence added some spice to the flight! Excellent and competent pilot did expert job and clearly loves his work.
Great experience, one serious con

Once up in the air, the experience was immeasurably amazing. Beautiful sights (despite fog), and although quick, worth every minute. The only con is their booking system. We didn’t find out until arrival that our party of 3 well exceeded the weight limit, despite having input our weight during the online booking. After inputting guest weight online, there should be an alert that tells you what the limit is and how over you are to save people time and money. The realistic weight capacity of 3 is two adults and a child. This is a quick coding input and I would encourage Envi to push their partners on this as it was a huge disappointment for our group that one of them had to sit out and clouded a lot of the overall experience.
Response from Host , Dec 2021
Thank you for your comments and we appreciate your input! Unfortunately we have very little control on how reservations are captured via Viator/TripAdvisor Experiences and have encouraged them for several years to make minor updates to address this very issue. We have and will continue to work with them to avoid this in the future!
Amazing

This magical experience gave me a new appreciation for flying, nature and scenery when traveling. Clyde, our pilot gave us a smooth take off and great landing. The price is reasonable and I was speechless from the views. Yes, put this on your to do list!!
Well worth it!

Clay was our pilot! He was great, helped my grandma get in the plane and answered all her nervous-nelly questions. We wish we couldve been in the air longer than 20 min!
Amazing!

We walked right up to the counter where we met pilot and tour guide. He was very kind with a big smile and presented a calm confidence which made me comfortable right off the bat.The trip was smooth and breathtaking and extremely peaceful. I cannot believe that they offer this mini escape at session amazing rate! There was absolutely no hassle on the website or in person. I also found upon arriving that they offered different tours that could be found on their website or different areas and different durations. I plan on doing them all! I just want to thank everybody there for a lovely day trip that was literally above and beyond.

A truly magnificent experience! From the ease of booking a flight online to the great communication of this business about flight times and conditions. Our flight was postponed pretty close to lift off time but for safety reasons(wind and cloud cover has quickly come in the area) we were all very happy to know they were more concerned with our safety than meeting a silly schedule. The following week conditions were suitable and we took off with zero issue. The pilot(Adam) did such an amazing job explaining safety procedures and easing one of my party’s nerves. Such a Beautiful view of the Gorge and the flight itself had to be one of the smoothest ones I’ve ever taken. Even landing was cushion soft. Outstanding service! Can’t wait to do it again!

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.
