5/5

Great experience despite the weather (fog). The pilots are very friendly and good at explaining things. Would do it again. The little bonus is that they offer a drink at the end, which is really nice.

It was a great flight with Mika, and you immediately felt confident because he explained what he was doing and what you could see, without going overboard. The flight over the city and the castle were magical. On the other hand, future passengers should be given a little more information about the duration of the service: arriving on site at 5.45pm and returning at 9.30pm, we were very hungry and... we had to pee.
