Online Reviews Summary

Based on recent traveler reviews, it appears there may be a misunderstanding regarding "Orto Yokohama View Tower (JP-1622)" as a helipad for traveler experiences. The Orto Yokohama View Tower is primarily an apartment building located in Yokohama, not a public helipad offering tours or general traveler services.

However, there are established helicopter tour operators in Yokohama, namely Minato Mirai Heliport (Yokohama Sky Cruise) and Yokohama South Heliport (AIROS Skyview), that offer scenic flights. Traveler sentiment for these helicopter experiences is overwhelmingly positive and highly satisfied, with many describing the flights as a wonderful and moving experience, often booked for special occasions like birthdays or anniversaries.

What Travelers Love

Exceptional Scenic Views: Travelers consistently rave about the stunning panoramic views of Yokohama, including the Minato Mirai skyline, Bay Bridge, and on clear days, even Mount Fuji and the Tokyo Tower. Both day and night flights are highly praised for their beauty.
Professional and Kind Staff: The pilots and ground staff at the heliports are frequently commended for their kindness, politeness, and hospitality, with some even taking photos for customers. This contributes significantly to a positive and reassuring experience, especially for first-time helicopter riders.
Ease of Access: The Minato Mirai Heliport is noted for its easy accessibility from nearby stations, making it convenient to combine with other Yokohama activities.
Memorable Experiences: Many travelers highlight the helicopter tours as unforgettable and deeply moving memories, often exceeding expectations and bringing joy to those celebrating special events.
Smooth Flights: Passengers report no shaking during flights, allowing for a peaceful and enjoyable viewing experience.

Common Complaints

Limited Flight Days: A notable complaint for the Minato Mirai Heliport is that flight days are generally limited to Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and public holidays due to government restrictions, with weekday flights being longer and more expensive.
Cost: While not explicitly a complaint, the experiences are often described as "short tours," suggesting that for some, the cost might be a consideration for the duration of the flight, though most still find it very satisfying.

Overall, helicopter tours from Yokohama's operational heliports offer an exhilarating and highly recommended experience for travelers seeking unique panoramic views of the city and its surroundings. The positive sentiment is largely driven by the breathtaking scenery and excellent customer service, with the main limitation being the restricted flight schedule.
