Overview

The Grand Tampa Bay Tour is our most exciting and comprehensive helicopter adventure, combining every highlight from the Downtown Tour and the Ultimate Beach Tour into one unforgettable VIP experience. Your journey begins at Peter O. Knight Airport, lifting you above Davis Islands and Downtown Tampa from just above rooftop level before gliding over Ybor City, the Florida Aquarium, and the University of Tampa. From there, the flight sweeps past Raymond James Stadium for a front-row aerial view before crossing Tampa Bay toward St. Pete’s world-famous beaches.

You’ll soar above Fort De Soto, Pass-A-Grille, John’s Pass, and the iconic Don CeSar “Pink Palace,” with a breathtaking pass over the sunshine Skyway Bridge.
