Full description
Experience the 1000 Islands from the air on a breathtaking helicopter tour. Choose your own adventure with three unique tour options ranging from 10 to 30 minutes. Depart from Gananoque Heliport, located within a 20-minute drive east of Kingston via Highway 401 in beautiful Gananoque, Ontario.  Check in at the front desk then relax in the lounge before your pre-flight briefing. Feel the thrill as you rise above lush greenery, sandy beaches, and rocky cliffs, admiring the sights from your guaranteed window seat.  Wear audio headsets complete with microphones for easy communication. Enjoy pilot-narrated commentary in English or select one of the recorded multilingual audio tours. The duration depends on your selected option. Choose the 10-minute tour for a taste of the 1000 Islands, including the town of Gananoque, the Admiralty Islands, Navy Islands, and the Lake Fleet Islands.

GetYourGuide traveler – Germany29 September 2023 – Verified booking
The flight was a real experience in beautiful sunny weather. It's great to see the many islands from this perspective. The pilot gave us many explanations that were easy to understand even for us non-native English speakers. I can only recommend the flight and on-site support.

Amazing.. I loved interacting with the pilot. He was so nice and fun loving he did allow me to take the videos and photograph and he was so ready detailed about the safety precautions that is to be taken while on the helicopter. I enjoyed my 10 minutes ride with my parents. It was the best memory ever

It was a surprise for my brother Doug who is rapedy losing his eyesight. So this was an experience of a lifetime and something he wiill carry in his memory forever. We all will. And for my sweetheart Graeme, who has wanted to do this since long before we met. So this was a part of our two year anniversary present to him. The look on their faces said it all. Our pilot Bill was amazing and made sure my brother, Doug could get the best visual and all round fabulous experience. We all feel the same and have raved about our experience to everyone we've spoken to since. A huge thank you to all of you that made our flight so very special. Sincerely, Brenda, Graeme and Doug
