Nothing else comes close to the thrilling sensation of a swift, vertical flight in a helicopter. Admire the views while swooping across the beautiful landscape from awesome heights. After what will seem a lengthy few minutes in the air, you settle gracefully back on the ground. This truly is an exciting and unforgettable experience.
You will be welcomed and briefed by a specialist team and given the opportunity to see and hear a modern helicopter at close quarters. Then you will experience climbing gracefully to over 1,000 feet, accelerating to over 120mph, swooping over the landscape and then settling gently back on the ground. Cameras are positively encouraged - with an experience this exhilarating you will want to relive it as often as possible!
