Take a thrilling helicopter tour of the most picturesque cities in the UK and experience the breathtaking view of the world from above. The choppers used for these tours are the four-seater Bell Jet Ranger and the six-seater Bell Long Ranger, providing all passengers with superb views. The helicopters are impressive-looking machines and the whirring sound adds to the excitement of the pre-flight build-up.
Helicopters are quick and graceful in the skies, allowing you to soar over the city in no time. They can also hover, giving you the opportunity to capture great photos of the best sights from a unique perspective. Depending on where you take off from, your flight path may vary. You could tour your local town centre, hover around famous football stadiums, or even check out ancient castles from up in the air.
Regardless of which UK city you are hovering over, the view from above will be completely different. Take off in the early morning and follow the snaking lines of commuter traffic heading into the cities for work. Or, take off in the early evening and watch the sunset over the city spires. It's a wonderful experience that you won't forget!
