Lack of ability to talk to each other and no input from pilot was very disappointing... Also it is a long walk to the helipad...certainly not downtown barcelona

The flight was 30 minutes._br/_ As a helicopter flight, it was very good and interesting to see the sights._br/_ As a sight seeing tour, I don't think enough thought had been given to making sure that every passenger had a good experience. Passengers in the back were not given a good enough view, as the things everyone wanted to see were generally in front of the helicopter, not the sides. And passengers on the left hand side seemed to get a better deal than passengers on the right hand side._br/_ One other point. The helicopter windows were not very clean, making photos difficult. And brilliant white shirts reflected in the windows sometimes blotting out the view.

Helicopter tour itself was amazing views. Was an easy check in and check out process. Helicopters are smaller than some others we have previously taken. The pilot did not say anything during the flight which would have been much better. Having done helicopter flights recently in Hawaii and the Grand Canyon, not having the pilot speak during this one was a def difference in experience. Make sure you have prearranged transportation when exiting the location bc it will be hard to find a taxi close by. You may have to walk back to one of the ports if you don't call ahead. Staff at the location were neither friendly or not friendly. They spoke very little english and we spoke lil spanish. Def would not book the less expensive tour. Monserrat is the highlight of this tour.
