Helicopter tours in Whistler, British Columbia
Whistler's glaciers, alpine lakes, and peaks like Black Tusk are best appreciated from above, adding a different perspective to a resort town most visitors otherwise experience from the valley floor.
When's the best time to fly?
June to September is when Whistler's alpine lakes and glaciers are most accessible for a landing tour, with the most reliable flying weather. Tours run year round, and a flight outside those months trades landings for dramatic snow-capped views of the Coast Mountains.
What should I bring?
Warm layers even in summer, since temperatures at altitude and on a glacier landing are noticeably cooler than in the village.
What if the weather doesn't cooperate?
Like most operators, tours in Whistler have standard weight and balance limits (you may be asked your weight when booking or checking in), and pilots will delay or reschedule rather than fly in unsafe wind, low visibility, or storms. Booking a tour with free cancellation means a weather delay won't cost you anything.
