Chicago is famous for its skyline, but there's only so much sky you can see from the ground. That's why at Chicago Helicopter Experience, expert pilots lift passengers from Chicago's only downtown private heliport, to enjoy the view of downtown's busy streets and wide-open views of the city's magnificent architecture. Three types of tours each afford a unique experience, whether it's seeing the sunset reflecting off the Willis Tower or cruising over the nocturnal landscape of the city. Each tour takes place within the state-of-the-art Airbus AStar, which features plush leather seats, noise-canceling headsets, and bubble windows with a panoramic 180° view outside.
