our pilot was super funny and nice, but the helicopter ride itself was just o-kay. i felt as though it was a bit deceiving. first, the trip that i booked was for forty minutes. we boarded at 3:00 P.M. and got back at 3:20 P.M. i told the pilot that the trip was very short, and he said that we were up in the air for forty minutes. although i knew we really weren't. i still tipped him anyways because he was nice. i would try a different helicopter ride next time. might as well pay a bit extra and not have to drive to compton and probably a more non exaggerated time.
