Booked the 42 minute tour of Suncor,Syncrude @ townsite.Based my decision on Phoenix Heli-Flights safety record and reviews others have left.Was not dissapointed. Very convenient location near the airport. Very... read more professional & flexible staff. They did not ask for a deposit upon booking in advance,nor were they concerned we pay up front prior to flying.The pilot said " we'll deal with that when we get back." Also keep in mind while you are up there you can request to spend more time and see other things.You just pay for the extra time.So there really is a tour for everyone.
