"Great Experience! Fun ride!"

Reviewed November 28, 2024

This was a great experience! They were very nice and informative. They had a great attention to safety. They did not pressure you to do more than you wanted for your ride. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to see Hilton Head from the sky.
