  • Fly High Over Lake Tahoe in a R44 Raven II Helicopter
  • Spot Eagle Falls and Vikingsholm From The Air

Experience South Lake Tahoe's Emerald Bay from the air on a scenic ten-minute helicopter tour.

After a thrilling vertical take-off, approach Emerald Bay and witness the vivid emerald green waters that give the bay its name. The bay is surrounded by thick forests and rocky cliffs, and from above you can see the intricate pattern of inlets and coves that make it such a popular destination for boaters and kayakers. As you circle the bay, your pilot points out the various landmarks and points of interest, such as the historic Vikingsholm mansion, perched on the edge of the bay and surrounded by gardens and terraces. You also get a great view of Fannette Island, which sits in the center of the bay and is home to the ruins of a small stone castle. 

A ten-minute Lake Tahoe Helicopter Tour is a wonderful experience to share with loved ones, and makes a unique gift idea for celebrating special occasions.
