They even accommodated my new pickup location, which wasn’t within the regular pickup zone, a huge plus. The flight itself was magical, and I really appreciated that the pilot didn’t take us straight up but instead timed it perfectly so we could watch the sunrise in full view. It made the whole moment unforgettable. I highly recommend this tour! 🌅🎈”
