There is no comparing an airplane tour to a helicopter tour, as enthusiasts and novices alike can tell you. It's an entirely new and thrilling experience that you will not soon forget. Imagine being able to hover over your favorite moment in time or place — now get in one of these helicopter tours and make it happen!

Sky Helicopters offers the greatest variety in tour destinations from the air. Ranging from tours that specialize in areas to specific destinations, Sky Helicopters is bound to show you something you've never seen before, and even if it isn't your maiden voyage to a destination, seeing it from a helicopter will guarantee another perspective on the beauty that North Texas has to offer. Try Sky Helicopters if you want to give it a whirl with a downtown Dallas tour, romantic sunset tour, Dallas/Fort Worth tour, Lake Ray Hubbard tour, or even the more recently added AT&T/ Globe Life Stadium Tour.

The only helicopter company with the option of a fireworks tour, Epic Helicopters offers this unique find during major holiday weekends like Memorial Day weekend, Labor Day weekend and the Fourth of July. For a more tranquil, yet thrilling ride, try one of Epic Helicopter's romantic tours or mix your business with pleasure over a wine tour option.

Air Center Helicopters provides general local sightseeing, through Dallas/Fort Worth's most renowned sites and scenery.

What's really tempting at Longhorn Helicopters is the Discovery Flight. For $275, the brave can take a 30 minute flight after ground school with an instructor, where they can experience a flight as if they were the pilot, from inspection to hovering. There is nothing like taking hold of the controls for the first time. Try it for yourself!

Custom aerial photography, not standard tours, and special events charters are the bulk of business for North Texas Helicopters. They cater to those who need to get somewhere quickly and safely. So, make a grand, unforgettable entrance with a helicopter ride to a wedding, corporate event or even a date night to remember!

Frequently asked questions.

Helicopter tours are great for corporate events, birthday parties, fundraisers, bachelor/bachelorette parties, family gatherings or other special occasions. Tours can be conducted away from Epic’s home base provided there is a safe landing zone and we have written permission from the land owner. Your booking agent will be able to handle these items for you. Ensuring the highest level of safety is our goal. We provide trained ground crew for loading passenger groups safely and efficiently. We have hosted small groups and groups as large as 300 people. Our Fort Worth facility has an observation room for rental with a view of the flight line available for hosting catered events for up to 15 people.

Payment in full is required at the time of booking. We accept all major credit cards. Payment cards are subject to a convenience charge.

Helicopter tours depart from and arrive back to either Addison Airport or Fort Worth Meacham Airport unless a custom flight itinerary has been arranged such as landing at one of our restaurant or hotel/spa partners. Check out the Helicopter Charters section for more info about point to point helicopter charter service.

We encourage you to arrive 15 minutes prior to your departure. There will be some paperwork and a safety briefing conducted before your flight.

Of course! Bring your camera so you can enjoy the memories. While still photography is allowed, video recording is not allowed.

Bring your playlist along with your favorite songs and we’ll pipe your music through the headsets. If your phone requires a special adapter, please bring it along. If you would like, you can listen to your pilot interact with air traffic controllers instead. We’ll leave that choice up to you!

Yes. Some tours have upgrades you can select during the online checkout process, such as an extension of flight time to see more landmarks, an apparel purchase, photography package or Epic wine glasses. For upgrades that involve landing anywhere other than the point of departure, we recommend you review our Helicopter Charter options and make a charter booking inquiry. We are happy to accommodate your requests to make your flight unforgettable.

We offer many signature helicopter charter arrangements that are quoted based on your required itinerary and number of passengers. You can use the helicopter charter reservation form to let us know what itinerary you have in mind. If you need help with ideas, we have plenty of them. Dinner dates, BBQ fly-in lunch, private remote picnics, spa and resort getaways and more! Just call to learn more. 817-625-1800 or 214-296-2289.

Children under 13 must be accompanied by at least one adult. Younger children will need to wait until their 4th birthday to experience an Epic Helicopters tour.

Yes. Simply call the office for redemption. Please be sure to bring the gift certificate with you the day of the tour or credit cannot be applied.

Refunds will be processed less a $25 flight cancellation charge deducted from the refund amount. Refunds processed within 72 hours of the reservation time will incur a $125 flight cancellation charge deducted from the refund amount. Any flight may be rescheduled to a different date or time without penalty and subject to availability. Alternately, the account balance may be converted to a gift certificate for a discovery flight or helicopter tour without penalty. Unfortunately, we cannot issue a refund on certain upgrades requiring special arrangements. Please note that all gift certificate sales are final.

On rare occasions, a flight may be cancelled or postponed due to airspace restrictions, weather or other reasons out of our control. You will be notified by phone in a timely manner if this situation occurs. Sometimes, weather-related postponements will delay your departure a few hours. Your pilot will make this decision and ask whether you would like to delay departure or re-book the flight for another time at no charge. Flight routes may vary due to air traffic control, weather, flight restrictions or other reasons beyond our control.

Your pilot is a trained weather observer that will decide whether the flight will launch based on available weather information. Generally, flights will not launch when there is widespread thunderstorm activity, lightning in the vicinity, low visibility, low cloud ceilings or extreme turbulence. If a flight is cancelled or postponed, we try our hardest to notify you by phone 2 hours before the flight. In the event the flight is canceled for that day, Epic Helicopters will keep your balance on account and the flight will be rescheduled by a booking agent who will be in touch with you the following business day.

Acceptable passenger loads change depending on how much fuel weight is carried onboard for your flight. Because this is different each flight, leave the complicated weight loading to us. In general, you should know that each passenger and their belongings must weigh 300 lbs or less. The total weight of all passengers is subject to limitations depending on fuel weight onboard. Try to have your passenger names and weights available at the time of booking. If passenger weight information is not available at the time of booking, you may book the flight, but we will need passenger weights 48 hours prior to departure. Your booking agent will inform you if the total passenger weight for your flight is not within limits.

Quite simply, it’s what you get to see. Helicopters are authorized to fly at lower altitudes and the visibility from a helicopter is superior with every seat having an unobstructed view. Helicopters also have access to airspace that airplanes do not, such as close-in fly-bys of downtown Dallas below building tops or flights right down the middle of DFW airport.

Your flight length is stated on each tour description page on our website, which is calculated as engine start to engine stop time.

The price for this tour is offered as the price for all passengers on board. 

Pricing is the total price for all passengers, not a per person price.

PRIVATE RIDES UP TO 3 PEOPLE – This option ensures there will not be any passengers from another party on your flight and you may have up to 3 passengers in your party for one total price.

PRIVATE RIDES UP TO 4 PEOPLE – This option ensures there will not be any passengers from another party on your flight, you may have up to 4 passengers for one total price, and you will be in a more spacious helicopter.
