What do you want locals to know about your business?

The dream of flight is as old as time itself. Similarly, buried deep in the Canadian soul is the desire to travel across Canada from coast to coast. This quest has captivated the earliest explorers as well as our modern day heroes.

The appeal of FlyOver Canada makes the imagined real. Since opening in June 2013, FlyOver Canada has brought smiles to over two million riders of all ages, from every corner of Canada and over 40 nations worldwide.

During the Ultimate Flying Ride you will see numerous cities and vistas across the country. The production team for FlyOver Canada were able to select 18 scenes from over 100 hours of footage to represent Canada in the ride film. There are no subtitles or voice-overs during the experience, as we did not want to detract from the flying sensation.
