In Los Angeles, airspace is closed when VIPs such as the president are in town. Also, when Dodgers or Rams are playing, we are restricted from flying over or near these sports stadiums. We do our best to monitor TFRs and in most cases we have 24 to 48 hr. warnings. But in some cases, flight restrictions can be imposed with no warning. The LA Dodger games usually affects the Downtown LA portion of our tours.

Magical trip to Malibu
We had an outstanding time on the Helicopter tour. Peter our pilot was fantastic, and showed us so many amazing landmarks and celebrity homes. AMAZING Brad and Mason Walton

Amazing!
Peter and Claudia are the best. They made adjustments to meet our needs and went out of their way to ensure that our experience was amazing. I definitely plan to do this again!
via Viator
A very enjoyable experience!
The helicopter trip was really great! The pilot was very friendly and made it a great experience. We had never ridden in a helicopter before so we were nervous but the flight was very smooth. He told us about all the different spots we were passing over. When we stopped at the landing he was very kind laying out a table cloth and pouring us some glasses of wine. He was also considerate and gave us privacy while at the landing. We had a great time and would totally recommend this trip!
via Viator
Wonderful and enchanting
Peter was our pilot and gave us the best experience ever. As someone who was afraid of heights, he gave us a smooth ride and made me and my wife’s first experience a magical one to remember. I would highly recommend going on this trip because you won’t regret it.

Why this scores 46
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
LA Helicopter Tour with Malibu Landing: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Los Angeles.
How much does LA Helicopter Tour with Malibu Landing cost?
+
Prices start at $995 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Los Angeles usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does LA Helicopter Tour with Malibu Landing take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Los Angeles is not rushed.
Is LA Helicopter Tour with Malibu Landing worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 46 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Los Angeles, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule LA Helicopter Tour with Malibu Landing?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is LA Helicopter Tour with Malibu Landing suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book LA Helicopter Tour with Malibu Landing?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Los Angeles can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Los Angeles and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does LA Helicopter Tour with Malibu Landing start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Los Angeles within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Los Angeles?
+
Los Angeles rewards travellers who cluster their bookings by geography rather than by theme. Studio tours and Hollywood walks sit inland, the Malibu and Santa Monica coast runs west, and Griffith Observatory and the canyon hikes work best at dawn or dusk. We weight transport clarity in the ranking here: whether pickup is included changes an LA day more than the tour itself. On Outty we rank every Los Angeles experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hollywood Sign 2.5-Hour Tour with Comedians and Their Dogs, Los Angeles Hollywood Sign Hike: Front, Behind, and Expert Guide, Los Angeles Original 90-Minute Walking Tour to The Hollywood Sign. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Los Angeles?
+
March to May and September to November, for clear air and open canyon roads. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Los Angeles?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
