Description:

In a Bell Jet helicopter, soar high above the San Francisco cityscape and surrounding vistas. See the hilly neighborhoods before flying over the iconic span of the Golden Gate Bridge and rocky, hidden Alcatraz Island.

A convenient transfer takes you from downtown San Francisco to the helicopter pad. Board your chopper and take to the skies for a birds-eye view over the City by the Bay. Gaze down for a look at the city’s signature Victorian townhouses, parks, and the steep twists and curves of famous Lombard Street. As you fly, your pilot points out landmarks and well-known sights and provides commentary on the city’s history and culture.

Hover over the skyscrapers of the Financial District and marvel at the unique, 853-foot (260 m) tall Transamerica Pyramid. Leaving the cityscape behind, fly out over the Bay toward Alcatraz—often referred to as “the Rock,” this infamous prison housed some of the country’s most notorious criminals during its 29 years in operation. As you loop back beside the Golden Gate Bridge, catch a glimpse of the oldest operating lighthouse on the West Coast before touching back down on solid ground.
