Beautiful ride with Blake this morning. We did the “Ultimate Adventure” tour which goes around HHI and over to Daufuskie Island. We were able to see dolphins 🐬 in the ocean in addition to beautiful views. Blake was a great pilot and knew history about the island. Definitely want to do it again!

Our helicopter tour over Hilton Head Island was fantastic. Pilot David was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience feel safe and fun. The views were stunning, and we even spotted dolphins just off the coast and in the waterways—such a breathtaking moment from the air. Highly recommend this tour! 🚁🐬

"Fun turns and dolphin sightings!"

We had a fantastic experience with Hilton Head Helicopter tours! We booked about an hour in advance and they fit us right in. David at the desk handled our check in and safety briefing, then got us into the helicopter about fifteen minutes after we arrived. Blake was our pilot and he gave a great tour. He took us along the beach to Coligny, gave us a view of the regatta and then even made a few circles over a pod of dolphins that was surfacing. On the return trip we took a few “fun turns” and got to land alongside a small plane that was coming in for a landing on the runway right next to ours! Super cool experience and would definitely take another tour in the future.

We wanted to do something fun on our anniversary and this was worth every penny. We did the HH eco trip and flew for 30+ minutes. My wife and I had a great pilot. His name was Blake and he did a great job. If you’ve never been in a helicopter or you have, then this is a trip worth taking while at Hilton Head. We had a great time and great experience. The whole team at this business were very kind.
