Louisville Biplane Ride Customer Reviews

Average Rating: 5 stars out of 5
Great expierence

I purchased a ride for a friend for her birthday. The 'gift' included two persons, so I went with her. It was so nice to see her so excited over the plane. Our pilot was terrific, explained what to expect and what sights we would see. The view was amazing, the ride smooth and the day sunny and warm. I would definitely purchase and recommend to anyone that has ever thought of flying on their next adventure.
