This unique Backcountry Beer Tasting Tour offers a 30-minute scenic helicopter flight from Vancouver, landing at a remote, crowd-free patio with breathtaking mountain views. Enjoy a complimentary craft beer tasting from Twin Sails Brewery while soaking in the pristine wilderness. State-of-the-art helicopter and expert pilots ensure a safe, exhilarating experience.
The jagged, snow-capped peaks of the Coast Mountains and the pristine silence of the British Columbia wilderness serve as the stage for this 2.5-hour ultra-exclusive aerial expedition.
Operated by SKY Helicopters, this "Top Rated" journey transitions from the urban glass towers of Vancouver to a remote backcountry landing where the population is exactly zero.
You move from a luxury shuttle to a state-of-the-art helicopter, experiencing a vertical ascent to "the best patio in town"—a mountain ridge where you will sample local craft beers.
Because this tour offers rare access to areas seen by only a handful of people and includes a private landing, you should book your beer tasting helicopter tour early to secure your flight for the 2026 season.
Expect an exhilarating, high-service, and deeply serene adventure. The transition from the buzzing city to the total silence of the mountains is profound. The environment is one of "pristine isolation," designed for those who appreciate the intersection of nature and luxury. While the flight is smooth, it is a vertical journey into a high-altitude climate. Our agency notes that this is a small-group experience, limited to just 5 participants per flight, ensuring personalized attention from your pilot.
Our agency reminds you to hold our SKY brochure when waiting in your hotel lobby. Travelers with us have found this makes it significantly easier for the shuttle driver to identify you among the morning crowds.
Us at the agency stress the importance of calling 604-239-0760 the day before your flight. Our clients have noted that because weather changes quickly in a coastal city, this call is vital to confirm your exact departure time and flight status for the 2026 season.
If you are a solo traveler, our agency recommends flexibility with your dates. Our travelers know that a minimum of two seats must be sold for the helicopter to depart; our agency does its best to pair you with other adventurers to ensure your tour goes ahead.
Our agency highlights that the shuttle is highly flexible. Our travelers often ask to be dropped off at the Cruise Terminal or a specific downtown restaurant after the tour instead of returning to their hotel, making it a perfect final activity before departing Vancouver.
The mountain visibility and landing conditions vary with the coastal seasons.
Recommended Start Time: Morning flights are highly recommended by our agency. The air in the Coast Mountains is typically more stable in the early hours, providing the smoothest flight and the crispest light for your backcountry photographs.
The tour includes 30 minutes of air time and a 30-minute landing, with a total duration of 2.5 hours including shuttles.
We proudly feature local craft selections from Twin Sails Brewery.
Sturdy, closed-toe shoes and layers. It is always cooler at the mountain landing than in downtown Vancouver.
At almost all major downtown hotels and the Canada Place Cruise Terminal.
Safety is the pilot's priority. If weather prevents flying, our agency will offer a reschedule or a full refund.
