See Breathtaking Aerial Views of Hot Springs on a Helicopter Tour
I lived and worked in Hot Springs, Arkansas for almost 11 years and while living there I learned a lot about the spa city, the people, and the culture. One of my favorite things to do was drive up on one of the mountains that overlooks the city.
The view was always amazing but I often thought man, wouldn't it be nice to get an aerial view of this wonderful National Park with its surrounding lakes and picturesque Ouachita mountain range? Good news, now you can with Sky Tours helicopter rides!
Whether you are planning a weekend getaway a week-long vacation or a special occasion in Hot Springs you have to take a helicopter tour starting at only $39 per person with different flight options with various lengths. You'll get some amazing breathtaking scenic views of the Ouachita Mountains, Lake Hamilton, and Lake Ouachita, the land of of 200 islands.
According to Fun in Arkansas, Sky Tours offers well-maintained helicopters with licensed experienced professional pilots who know the area in order to give you the ultimate adventure of your lifetime. Rides depart daily from Hot Springs Memorial Field Airport and each passenger will be given a headset and microphone to communicate with the pilot.
You will learn some interesting facts and the history of the Hot Springs region that was called the "Valley of the Vapors" from the native Indians that roamed this area centuries ago. Sure, you can see quite a bit on top of the mountain but nothing compares to seeing from up above.

Sky Tours are available Wednesday- Sunday and reservations are encouraged because they stay pretty booked. There are so many things to see and do in Hot Springs but you have to add this experience to your bucket list.
