Hovering Over History: Exploring London’s Landmarks By Helicopter


London is home to one of the world’s most iconic skylines. From the domed roof of St Paul’s Cathedral to the jagged point of the Shard, the city is just as distinctive from above as it is from ground level.

Fly over the UK capital in a helicopter and you’ll enjoy stunning views of some of London’s most famous and historic landmarks. What’s more, you’ll get to take in these spectacular scenes without contending with the crowds that throng the city’s streets.

Aerial Perspective

Helicopters offer a fantastic vantage point from which to admire London. High enough to give you a unique perspective of the city, but still close enough to sights – like Buckingham Palace, the Tower of London, Tower Bridge and Big Ben – that you can take in their detail, helicopters get you nearer to the action than any other form of aerial transport.Seeing the capital from above gives you the chance to appreciate how the city has grown, evolved and developed over the centuries.

Look east to the glittering skyscrapers of Canary Wharf and The City, north to the spires of Highgate and west to the exclusive mansion blocks of Kensington and Chelsea. From the air, you’ll see just how green the capital is, with parks, gardens and waterways crisscrossing the landscape.

Unmatched Luxury And Privacy

A private helicopter ride over London affords you unmatched levels of luxury and privacy. Exclusive and intimate, this unique form of travel lets you take in the city’s historic sights without any distractions. During your flight, you’ll be able to enjoy a selection of personalised extra touches, helping you get the most from your journey over the rooftops.

Efficiency And Convenience

Private helicopter hire gives you the chance to see almost all the city’s landmarks in just a few hours. If you don’t have a lot of time, but still want to get a real feel for the history of the UK capital, this is the perfect way to travel. Personalise your tour to ensure you get up close to the buildings, areas and landscapes that interest you most. There are a number of heliports in London, so you can select the departure and arrival points that best suit your schedule.

Stunning Photo Opportunities

From the seat of a charter helicopter, London is your photographic oyster. Capture breathtaking panoramic shots of the city’s most iconic sights, taking in centuries-old structures and cutting-edge modern architecture all in one frame. These photos, like the memories you make in the air, will stay with you forever.

Unforgettable And Exhilarating 

Flying over London in a helicopter isn’t just a unique way to see the sights, it’s also an exhilarating and unforgettable experience. Merge your historic, personalised tour with the thrill of soaring above the city’s streets, creating memories that will last a lifetime in the process.
