Awesome experience! I took a flight with my aunts for their birthday. The helicopter fit 7 people. This included our party of 3, another party of 3 and the pilot. Our flight was less then 10 minutes long for the one we chose but they do have longer flights (they go off of mileage). The views were stunning and I would definitely recommend. We did end up having to wait quite a bit until our flight even though we arrived on time so that was a bit disappointing. read more

The most exiting experience ever! Parking is free which is super convenient. The tour was fun, short and safe! I was able to bring my 11 year old along and he loved it as well!. I would definitely do it again. The staff was really professional and experienced which gave me the peace of mind I needed to feel safe. read more

Before getting into the helicopter, I wanted to take some pictures outside, but they didn't allow it. Only one employee was outside with a phone, taking photos for us. You're allowed to take pictures once you're inside the helicopter during the flight, but after the ride, they charged $30 for per photo the employee took. That's ridiculous charging for memories they wouldn't even let us take ourselves. read more

I had a chance to work with Daniel at Vertiport Chicago and it was such a pleasure. His dedication and hard work to assist with making my best friend proposal was phenomenal. I have never worked with someone who was so kind and professional. He represented VERTIPORT so well. He was awesome and I look forward to sending tons of proposal engagements your way! Thanks so much Daniel! Your efforts, dedication, and hard work doesn't go unnoticed! read more

What a mind blowing experience. This is something that I always wanted to do and finally today I had the chance to do it what an amazing experience of seeing Chicago the city I've lived in all my life from a helicopter. The atmosphere was very clean and updated and the staff was super friendly. Thank you Trevor And everyone at Chicago helicopter tours will definitely be doing this again! read more

Vertiport Chicago - Tours Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

If your looking for a VIP helicopter experience I would recommend Vertiport! Danny was the rep that I've worked with and he provided a great experience - the tour took about 30-45 min and upon landed we were greeted with a red carpet and black Rolls Royce chauffeur to dinner - the entire experience was 5 stars! When considering a helicopter tour in Chicago I would say Danny and his team are the go to! read more

Wow! What an amazing place! And who knew something as cool (and big) as this could be located smack dab in the middle of the city? Located basically at Ashland and Roosevelt, this gorgeous facility has a lovely lounge area, complete with bathrooms, vending machines and comfortable chairs while you wait for the real treat, which are the helicopters! I was there to do a 30 minute tour of the city, but you can also rent a helicopter to take you and your crew to a golf outing up in Lake Geneva, travel around to check out real estate or do anything within their flying range. They offer both tour packages as well as shared ride services. Gee! Too bad I can't take this from the burbs to the city during Friday night rush hour. But I digress. Back to the tour. I ordered a 30 minute tour of the city (please note: price at the time of booking this last year was about $200 a ticket. Today $150 ticket price covers a 15 minute tour). Our choice of times were during the day, twilight or night sky. My friend who is an avid flyer suggested daytime for the first time but now I know I want to go back and see our city at night. Our pilot Russ was great, explaining what was going to happen, getting us situated with headsets and then off we went! If you are a Cubs fan, and want to see Wrigley from the air- know that during game days, there is a "no fly" zone up that way so you wont be able to see that landmark. We went to the south instead, flying over Hyde Park, the Museum of Science and Industry, Soldier Field and then up through Grant Park, through downtown and out to the United Center before circling back. It was stunning. If you are looking for the perfect gift for someone who loves Chicago, or just want to see our city from a different perspective, call Vertiport. It's a unique experience! read more

My brother and I saw a booth on Navy Pier about this offer. We became interested and asked the ladies for information. We had the prices details and the times and the length for this trip. It was affordable to us and decided to take it! We picked 8:30 hoping the sun would be set and we would get a great view of Chicago night lights. We were provided transportation, taken to the location, went over instructions, and within minutes were ready to fly. Unfortunately the sun was just setting, which wasn't bad we kind of waited a couple hours for this tour. Overall it was an amazing experience; I've never been on a helicopter ride before. read more

The rentals are amazing the customer service sucks! We came to return a car and there was three of us they did not have enough chairs (2) in the check-in area when try to sit down the employee offered to bring another chair out and didn't bring anything. In the waiting area was told it's reserved for someone else the waiting area has a sofa a bench two loveseats and more they have me standing around waiting. No one was in there. They have an hour waiting period of inspection on the vehicle. We told them we have a flight to catch. And there all in an office sitting around talking not making us a priority. This company should hold their employees to their car standards. With out customers you have no business. read more

That flight was Amazing, the people that work there was extra nice. Aylah was very helpful in making sure our flight was more than what we expected I definitely will be going back sooner than later. It is work every dollar and the pilot was down to earth and helped us notice certain things about the city from a birds eye view. read more

Vertiport was awesome! I had the best time with the most beautiful views of Chicago! The pilot, Jake, was super friendly and the staff was wonderful with getting scheduled. Natalia, Zack and Aylah made everything easy, enjoyable and fun. I would 100% come back for another flight if I find myself back in Chicago again. The perfect ending to my trip! Thank you! read more

I was very impressed by the high quality of service by everyone associated with Vertiport. I had help adjusting my flight departure time based on my son's trip home from school. Although the ride was short (no surprise since it clearly states it is a short ride) I loved the opportunity to check off something on my bucket list (a helicopter ride) and no doubt will someday pay more for a much longer ride now that I know I love it. I'm not an avid fan of jet planes and realized this is a much less scary way of flying! Thanks esp. to Aylah for your help with all! read more

One of the most memorable experience i had, thanks to Captain Ryan and the staff who was so friendly. They made sure i was treated well, the helicopter ride was amazing, so far the smoothest take off and landing ever! Ryan was very down to earth. I had a private tour which felt awesome! People were running late but i am glad i wasn't asked to wait for them. Thank you for the experience..you guys are doing a great job specially pilot Ryan ..thank you! read more

this is the absolute best helicopter tour agency in the city of chicago! the folks over at vertiport are incredibly friendly they'll make you feel right at home, and what i love so much is that in your tour you have almost no restrictions where to go! i had a very specific route on what i wanted to go and the pilot had zero problem, plus had extra suggestions to make my 15 minute tour the more worthwhile. i don't have to go into detail how incredible the sunset views were i'll let my photos speak for itself on that. thank you so much aylah and the rest of vertiport chicago for making this photographer very happy and giving him an amazing and unforgettable experience. highly recommend this helicopter agency over any other in chicago if you're a photographer or just a thrill seeker that wants to see chicago in a whole new perspective! read more

Had such a great time! First time in a helicopter and had a blast. Price point was great - I got to see the city from a helicopter for less than $100? Don't mind if I do. Have to shout out Zack as well. Took good care of me as I waited for my tour read more

Worth it! They have wonderful staff that were willing to answer our questions. This was my first time in a helicopter. The trip was truly magical. read more

AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING!!!! Booked a 6:15-6:30 helicopter ride for my parents 30th Annivesary! Adrian on the phone when I booked set the mood for a special experience!! We walked into the lounge and were instantly greeted by Daniel and an impeccable staff- truly made my parents evening!! I can't recommend enough to fly with Vertiport VIP Helicopter tours!! I could tell by their faces they were astounded by the ride & enjoyed their pilot Mike!! I will be back to take a ride myself!!!! read more

Awesome experience, highly recommend. If you're a Chicago native, you might think you know everything about the city and have seen most everything. You haven't seen the city until you've experienced it from a helicopter at dusk. Amazing views, totally different perspective of buildings and the skyline. Our pilot Fernanda was informative, pointing out buildings and neighborhoods and points of interest. read more

What a fantastic experience, the staff were friendly and very helpful, the pilot was really good at pointing out Chicago landmarks. Overall it was great value for money, thanks again. read more

My wife & I(Terri & Jeff) wanted to thank all persons responsible for this wonderful tour of Chicago.Rotorzen/Veriport fulfilled a bucketlist! read more

One of the coolest things I've ever seen! Wish it was longer but it was still amazing!

It doesn't get any better then this! What an incredible way to see this beautiful city. The flight will take you up to Wrigley Field, then hug the shore line so you get incredible views all the way around. We went during the day, but sunset would be spectacular as well. They can also have corporate events there, as well as have one of their helicopters take you to other destinations-for example, a friends lake house in Michigan or Wisconsin. Dan was wonderful to work with and Nick was our pilot. I felt safe and comfortable and would highly recommend this trip for either a local Chicagoan, or an out of towner. read more

Had an amazing experience with Vertiport. Just simply the best helicopter tour you could imagine at sunset covering major sites throughout the city of chicago. Great Service, Great professional staff and lots of great great service. It went by soo fast and had our adrenaline pumped for such fantastic views. An experience like no other! read more

As a resident in this area, I am NOT amused by the noise, the constant overhead flights and the lack of respect for residents. This is the last place a helicopter operation should be located and who in their right mind would suggest that helicopters, flying amongst hi-rises, is a good idea? Yeah, I think we all know how this happened. read more

The views are nice but if its for a date I won't recommend it. They put you with another couple and someone inevitably gets separated so its you in the back with strangers and your significant other in the front. Meh read more

This tour of Chicago, from the sky was the best. The river view, the skyline and the drop in view of soldier field were awesome! Was indeed the best tour. The people were easy going and a pleasure to speak too. The pilot was cool and everything about our experience was great. Thank u for making our chicago trip memorable read more

Such a wonderful experience in Chicago. I would recommend this place for anyone who want to try helicopter tour.

This is an amazing facility, very clean and beautifully decorated. I had the honor and the pleasure of the 15-minute tour (which, by the way, is a lot longer than it seems) and offers a once in a lifetime opportunity to literally see a side of Chicago that most people don't. The staff are very friendly, personable, and knowledgeable. The check-in process is quick and easy. The pilot was very friendly and made sure to point out all the landmarks and answer any questions we had. This is definitely an opportunity and experience that everyone should do, as it was a memorable experience and I cannot wait to go again. read more

I took my fiancé there for his 40th birthday. He was like a kid in the candy store! We both LOVED it!!!! Jake the pilot was very informative with great energy! Daniel, helped me make the reservation and went above and beyond his call of duty to ensure that this experience was memorable and enjoyable! read more

I found this place through a Navy Pier kiosk, and they offered me and my family a free Bus Shuttles from downtown Navy Pier to The Vertiport. I had no idea that the largest airport for helicopters is in Chicago! The Vertiport has an app where you could ride share a helicopter to resorts, casinos, golf courses and to and from airports... Truly raised the bar! I highly recommend if you are planning on flying with someone who might be nervous about flying, the staff was incredibly comforting and had us feeling like VIP's! read more

Awesome and amazing at the same time. Our pilot Mike was the best! I "highly" recommend this as a trip of a lifetime!

3 months ago I booked a private helicopter tour. I was double charged for this tour but the company refunded me after I spoke to the manger about the mix up. Today I drove 5 hours for my private helicopter tour and I was informed that they had the wrong date in the computer system. No one at the location could help me with this issue because the boss wasn't present. Not only did I drive 5 hours but the surprise helicopter tour for my husband didn't happened. If I could rate them lower I would. read more

At first i thought the price was high but it was well worth it. Had a great time and it was the best view i have ever seen. Definitely going to come back and take the half hour tour. read more

Just took a tour of Chicago with Vertiport. Great team that delivers a wonderful experience. Would recommend to anyone.

This was the most amazing experience of my life!!! Worth every single penny and the pilot, Jake, did an amazing job of showing us the city and narrating the entire tour. My first time in Chicago and it was the best way to see the city! HIGHLY recommend! read more

Truely the only way to see the city of Chicago by is helicopter. One of the best helicopter tours I have ever been on. The service was great, the pilot/tour guide was unbelievable. I personally took a night helicopter tour and it the best way to see downtown Chicago. Thanks Vertiport Chicago for taking me on the amazing helicopter ride, I never knew the city of Chicago was so stunning! read more
