Helicopter tours

See Idaho from the air.

The experience

Helicopter tours allow you to experience the adventure of flying in Idaho and seeing it from a bird's-eye view. You are able to sit back and enjoy the view while one of our professional pilots takes you on a ride over mountains, rivers, canyons, and much more.

Our tours are available year-round and can be customized to meet the desires of the client. We can do helicopter tours for large events such as weddings and fairs, Christmas and New Year's, Valentine's Day and more! Contact us today to schedule your helicopter tour with a professional pilot at Alpine Aviation.

Photo flight

If you need photos of something from the air — or just want a picture of your house — our expert pilots will always get you the shot you want. Professional photographer or amateur, whether you're shooting with state-of-the-art camera equipment or a disposable camera, taking photos from a few hundred feet above will always give you photos you'll treasure. Enjoy breathtaking scenery from thousands of feet up.

Realtors, take pictures of your properties to give a unique perspective to your customers. Contractors, need an aerial survey of the land you're working on? Or maybe just a photo of a work in progress? Get that dramatic photo that will put your customers over the top.

Our Robinson helicopters are ideal, highly stable and safe aircraft for photographers and film crews. The doors can be removed, offering an outstanding view and a wide variety of angles.
