About this activity

Depart from flyVENTURE to the West, enjoying a view of the most elaborate homes of Davis Island and Bayshore Blvd as you turn North towards Downtown Tampa. View the St. Pete Times Forum, the Florida Aquarium, University of South Florida, and Tampa’s skyline from just above rooftop level.

You can add extra flight time to include the Raymond James Stadium serving as the home field for the Buccaneers and the Bulls, and has been the site of three Super Bowls in 2001, 2009 and 2021, the third of which the Buccaneers became the first team in NFL history both to play and to win a Super Bowl on their home field. From there you'll return to flyVENTURE.

And for an even better and more spectacular unobstructed birds-eye view, you can choose to have the aircraft doors removed during your flight. Champagne and extra time (to include Bush Gardens, Raymond James Stadium or the Beaches) are available as additional options during checkout.
