Royal Gorge Helicopters prides itself in being the only local helicopter excursion company in the Royal Gorge area. A helicopter tour over the Royal Gorge in Colorado offers breathtaking views of one of the most stunning natural wonders in the U.S. Fly over the 1,250-foot-deep Royal Gorge, carved by the Arkansas River over millions of years. Witness the dramatic rock walls and rugged terrain from a unique aerial perspective. Royal Gorge Bridge, get an incredible bird’s-eye view of one of the highest suspension bridges in the world, towering 955 feet above the river! Spot the historic train winding through the canyon along the riverbanks, a stunning sight from above. Keep an eye out for bighorn sheep, elk, and soaring eagles over the rocky cliffs and forests. Fly past rolling hills, rugged cliffs, and the beautiful Colorado landscape stretching into the distance.

The sky-high adventure of a lifetime.

Go Pros are available for a small fee.

Is this a private or semi private flight?
The answer to this question is yes! We offer both types. If you are a group of three or four, your flights will be private. Groups of two may share the aircraft with another couple. We do offer and encourage you to choose the “Private” option when booking, which reserves your tour just for you and your group. A small surcharge guarantees you will have the experience all to yourselves!

Royal Gorge Helicopters highly recommends you bring your smartphones or cameras with you. Feel free to take all the pictures and video you want. The only restriction we have is the use of flash photography. No flash photography is allowed on board to protect the pilot. (And you!).

We have Go-Pro 360 cameras we can rent for a small fee. You will get a full 360-degree view of your entire tour. At the end, we simply give you the SD card, and a link to software to view the footage. Highly recommended!
