Personalize Your Sarasota Helicopter Tour

Picture this:

• A romantic sunset anniversary flight, flying out over Anna Maria Island and the Gulf of Mexico beyond.
• Or: A fun-filled sky tour showing Sarasota newcomers the downtown skyline, coastline, marina, bridges and more.
• Or even: A thrilling, doors-off, bucket-list ride through the clouds, wind in your hair, zooming over the wilds of Myakka State Park, the intricate layout of Venice, or up to marvel at the Sunshine Skyway Bridge.

Whatever your dream southwest Florida helicopter flight, Sarasota Helicopter Tours will make it happen—and all within our standard private flight and scenic tour options. We are professional, experienced pilots running our business operation from top to bottom. And our helicopter tour business revolves around you.

Who are Sarasota Helicopter Tours for?

As a coastal, tropical tourist destination, Sarasota and Manatee counties draw delight from visitors year-round. Our tours are fantastic for introducing the area and its stunning beauty—waters, beaches, natural areas, neighborhoods, cities, and architecture—to vacationers and visiting out-of-towners looking to get a lay of the land.

And for Florida natives and long-time residents, a helicopter tour lets you see your home, your history, and your usual haunts in a whole new way—from the sky! Folks can take a picture that captures their childhood home and elementary school in a single shot, or see their daily commute in the blink of an eye, or just bask in the incredible beauty of the place we’re lucky enough to call home.

The Sarasota Helicopter Tours Service Difference

What makes us stand out first and foremost is our commitment to personalized service and the comfort and joy of our passengers. In short, we listen to you.

We start our experience in an air-conditioned lobby. It’s important to us that you’re comfortable from the moment you arrive.

We plan your trip around what you want to see. Many of our clients have specific destinations in mind, whether it’s our striking local attractions (like John Ringling’s estate and bayfront mansion) or specific landmarks (like the Sunshine Skyway Bridge). Other clients have ideas of areas they want to visit or things they want to see, whether it’s a trip up our amazing beaches and coasts, a zoom around downtown Sarasota or Bradenton, or a sky-high view of developments or natural areas out east.

Whatever you’re looking for, we’ll take you there.

We set up the helicopter according to the experience you want. 

• Our air-conditioned helicopters allow you to ride in climate-controlled comfort while you take in the view. 
• On the other hand, you might prefer that we take the doors off at the start and have an exhilarating, visceral experience of flight. 

Either way, it’s part of our standard menu of Sarasota tours with no added charges.

We fly according to the experience you want. From absolutely serene to an exciting thrill, from an overview of the area to an opportunity for you to celebrate a special occasion, we can tailor our flight style to the emotional response you’re looking for. 

We listen to your fears and concerns. If you’re more of a nervous flyer, we can discuss your options regarding weather and other flight variables. We want you to feel safe, and we’re eager to share all the information about what we’re doing, how it works, and what you can expect before you get into the helicopter.

Why should you try a Sarasota Helicopter Tour?

Rather than zooming past Sarasota-Bradenton in a landing plane or trudging through its highways in traffic, a helicopter tour allows you to take in great swaths of this beautiful place from a totally unique perspective, in a single, comfortable trip.
But more than that, Sarasota Helicopter Tours invites you to choose your own adventure and state your preferences out front. This is your one-in-a-lifetime experience; we’re just here to make it happen.
