About
Enjoy scenic tours with Zephyr Helicopter Company. Incredible views of North Routt County, Hahn's Peak, Steamboat Lake, Mt Werner, Strawberry Park and Emerald Mountain await you. We can design a custom tour anywhere in the Yampa Valley for up to 5 people, depending on passenger weights. There is nothing quite like a bird’s eye view of the Steamboat area when you are here on vacation! A helicopter ride makes a great gift, and is an exciting way to celebrate a special occasion.
Children must be at least 3 years of age, in their own seat with a lap belt; Children will not be permitted to ride on another passenger's lap. Small bags and personal items may travel by helicopter at the pilot's discretion (the items must fit safely into the luggage compartment). A jacket is recommended on cold weather days, although the helicopter is heated. And of course, bring your cameras!
Tours take off from the Steamboat Airport (Bob Adams Field) about 2 miles from downtown on Elk River Road. Zephyr Helicopter Company is closed on holidays and on weekends. Please contact Zephyr for special arrangements if you require a weekend appointment.
