They discriminate against non vaccinated. They refuse to take anyone unvaxed EVEN WITH THE 72 HOUR TEST. ALL Other heli tour companies in the area do NOT require vax OR will take a negative test within 72 hours of flight but NOT ALPINE. Even though that is the current regulation for flying on airplanes from international airports. They do NOT… support FREEDOM of choice or religion. I have chosen not to put an injection in my body, or my family's, that I know nothing about. I offered to take a test within 72 hours as APPROVED FOR INTERNATIONAL FLIGHTS but ALPINE will not accept one. Very

Easy to book, great crews, simple safety brief, all around good time.
I booked with 24 hours notice for my wife's birthday. Using the website was simple and made me confident I was in good hands. We showed up with ample time to find a smooth running operation. Watched the safety video, got weighed and had time to watch a couple flights leave.
Lucas was our pilot for our 20 minute flight and from the get go was very friendly and put my wife, on her first ever helicopter flight, at ease. He pointed out all the local sights as we flew past them and was ready to answer any questions we may have had

I brought my husband on the Mt Assiniboine and Glacier tour for his birthday and it was an absolutely magical experience. We got to see some breathtaking views and had a very informative and friendly pilot named Bailey. Thank-you for making this such a memorable day, we will definitely be coming back!

A spectacular experience start to finish. Everyone at Alpine Helicopters was welcoming and knowledgeable about their service. It was amazing to be given this gift from my employer to view the gorgeous Rocky Mountains from such a unique perspective. We took the Mt Assiniboine & Glaciers tour...I was amazed how close we got to the mountains and that… we actually crossed over to BC. We could not have had a more beautiful day with big blue Alberta skys creating a breathtaking backdrop, highlighting the snow capped mountains. It was a tour filled with excitement, anticipation, & shared

When we booked this heli tour as a present for my sister's birthday just this Monday Sept 28 , we we're so excited and really looking forward for the best experience. Well its not! The pilot was not so eager and pleasant, from the time he asked us if we can reschedule the trip or we can continue. We chose to continue and from that moment he wasn't… as friendly and gave us a very cold treatment. The whole experience is ruined by this pilot that makes us feel uncomfortable the entire time. Yes, I will remember this trip for a long time, but not in a good way. Ill give you 2 stars because the
