What Can I Expect

A full range of private sightseeing tours in an R44 helicopter for up to three passengers! We've got take-off points around the UK and you can choose from a 12, 25 or 45-mile tour.

These private flights of fancy for the three of you are operated by Robinson R44 helicopters. These are the sort of executive choppers you see at helipads all around the country - and they are great fun to fly in.

As private VIP voyagers, you'll feel like you're being ‘chauffeur-flown' as you climb aboard the awaiting chopper ready for your tour. From your seat, each of you will be afforded superb aerial views of the towns and countryside below.

And what incredible sights you will see on your tour from your privileged viewpoint inside the helicopter! From the rolling Surrey countryside, to the wilds of Lanarkshire, you will be flying like a bird in the sky over your favourite part of the UK. 

Maybe your sightseeing tour will take you near where you grew up? Perhaps you want to see the sea? Or possibly it's all about flying over your current home town. There's no doubt the panoramic vistas are unique from a helicopter.

And remember, the price is for the whole helicopter and you can fill it with up to three passengers. Even the kids can join you, as the minimum age is just six years old. Whether it's your first time in a heli or not, you will love being able to fly together on an R44 private sightseeing tour.
