EXCELLENT Based on 271 reviews AbdullaVerified Fantastic 45-min helicopter ride! James F. was brilliant, and Geoff & the EBG team made it unforgettable. From start to finish, my 45-minute helicopter ride with EBG Helicopters was nothing short of outstanding.Our pilot, James F., was highly professional, reassuring, and made the flight feel incredibly smooth and safe. His skill in the air gave us complete confidence, and he also made the experience fun and engaging.A big thank you to Geoff and the entire EBG team – their warm welcome, organisation, and personal touches really set the tone for the day. Everything ran seamlessly, and their hospitality made us feel like valued guests from the moment we arrived.The views from the helicopter were absolutely breathtaking, and the whole experience was the perfect mix of adventure, comfort, and unforgettable memories.If you’re looking for a once-in-a-lifetime experience, I couldn’t recommend EBG Helicopters more highly. Truly first class! P SVerified EBG Helicopters made my day. From start to finish the team at EBG Helicopters were fantastic. Every question during the booking process was answered in a helpful manner by Geoff and the pilot Mark covered a professional and knowledgeable breakdown of the details of the helicopter and what happens via the controls during flight. It was a fantastic and fun experience which I would highly recommend to anyone with interest in or flying helicopters. I just wished I could have spent a little longer in the air getting used to the controls before having to land. It felt all too short, but that just proves how much I enjoyed the experience and I will deffinatly look into the details for a full lesson. A little longer would give you 100%. Thank you Gentleman you made my day.Mr P Shackell paolo sVerified Amazing experience! We had a great time, what an experience! Our pilot James was very professional and guided through the different parts of London we were seeing. Geoff welcomed us and he was super fun, The booking process and check-in was super smooth and easy. It’s an experience that we recommend to everyone. Amy KVerified Amazing Experience! We had an amazing trip, Pilot James was fantastic and so informative pointing out all the London sights. We would highly recommended to anyone and we look forward to doing the tour again soon! Lisa KVerified Brilliant It was a fabulous experience - would thoroughly recommend it - the views were amazing. Our pilot Anne-Marie was great - very knowledgable - pointing out all the sights. She even managed to take us over Selhurst Park when she found out my husband was a Crystal Palace fan. Thank you to James for organising and to Anne-Marie for flying and for making our wedding anniversary so special. Can’t wait to do it again. Hoolia01Verified Amazing experience! Would recommend 100% From the first contact with EBG Helicopters to the actual day, the service was superb. I wanted to organise a flight to surprise my husband for his 60th birthday. I actually booked their 45 minute trip across London to the Olympic Park and back. James, who I spoke to a few times, and who was on hand on the day to organise the paperwork was amazingly helpful and just a lovely chap to boot. Our pilot Anne-Marie was just wonderful. She explained exactly how it was all going to work and was just so lovely with our teenage son who wasn’t quite sure that he would like it. Her sense of humour and obvious passion for her job shone through. My husband enjoyed every minute of his surprise. We would thoroughly recommend EBG Helicopters for the trip of a lifetime. My husband will never forget it. Five stars for everything! Pisces232Verified The best experience that you could have, on such an exciting day. Today, my wife and I took a helicopter tour over London. The tour was a Christmas present for me from my wife. The whole experience could not have been any better. It was excellent from the moment we were first received by James, the Operation Manager, when we arrived, through to when we left. Originally we were given information about the experience, then we met our Pilot Anne-Marie who was very friendly Anne-Marie did everything that she could to explain all about the helicopter and the views of the tour. At the end of the tour we were photographed by James. Again, nothing could have been any better. AndySVerified A fabulous experience An amazing way to see the sights of London. Thoroughly recommended. The team at EBG helicopters are friendly, courteous and professional. andrew fVerified Great experience all round. We were very happy with our Kent Heritage tour with EBG Helicopters. They couldn't have been more helpful or accommodating from booking to the day. Very welcoming to us and explained everything. The pilot was great and even went a little of detour so we could see an area we really wanted to. Couldn't recommend enough for anyone wanting to do one of these tours. Very pleased. Matthew KVerified 10/10! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Such an amazing experience! We were greeted by Geoffrey who was very welcoming! Geoffrey went over safety precautions with us and was a joy to speak with. Our pilot Ross was absolutely phenomenal! As someone who is prone to motion sickness I can confirm the ride was super smooth and spectacular. Ross went over all important information with us and was so informative, he answered all our aviation related questions! The view was stunning from the G-Lyra aircraft! Ross was super friendly and we really enjoyed flying with him! I would highly recommend EGB helicopters - not even just for a special occasion! 10/10 service!!
