Your Great Salt Lake Aerial Tour - Fly from Emery County, Utah

Experience a unique aerial adventure over the Great Salt Lake in Emery County, Utah, where a quick safety briefing gets you buckled into a 40-minute flight that compresses what would take a full day by car into an action-packed sightseeing tour; half the time you’ll soar high for expansive, birds-eye views and the other half you’ll fly “low and slow,” feeling like you’re in a flying car. You’ll witness the scale and evolving beauty of this iconic landmark formed during the Bonneville flood over 14,500 years ago, and because you’re visiting from the air there’s no negative ecological impact while you look for wildlife such as elk, antelope, buffalo, deer, coyote, and eagles.

Summary: A very unique and rare experience! Getting to fly over Antelope Island and the Great Salt Lake was such a cool way to see so much more than by car or foot. Neil is so personable and a great communicator pre-tour. He is an experienced tour guide/pilot and does such a good job explaining the plane, the surrounding area and finding the animals on the island. I’m so glad I found this experience and hope to come back and do it again someday!
