Dubai looks different from the sky
A helicopter tour gives you the best view of Dubai in the shortest time. In about 15 to 25 minutes you fly over Palm Jumeirah, Burj Al Arab, the Marina and the downtown skyline, with the Arabian Gulf spreading out beside you.
Every seat has a window, headsets let you hear your pilot’s commentary, and the flight path is planned for the best views and photos. A short safety briefing comes before take-off, and the whole experience is smooth and comfortable.
Choose a shared flight for a great price or a private flight for a couple, a family or a special occasion. Sunset flights are especially popular.
