Every tour below is a sightseeing flight over the city. The main difference between them is time in the air, and longer flights give you more of the coast and more time for photos.
Some guests fly for one landmark above all. These tours put it at the center of the route.
Every flight covers some of Dubai’s best-known sights, and longer flights add more. Depending on the tour you choose, the view can include:
Routes can shift with weather and air traffic control. Your planned route is confirmed when you book.
Prices depend on how long you are in the air and on booking a seat or the whole helicopter. Here are the current prices for each set tour.

Private flights on our set tours run from AED 3,020 for 12 minutes to AED 7,965 for 30 minutes, for up to five passengers. For anything beyond a set tour, an hourly rental is quoted around your route, timing, and group size.
These are the ways to book a private or larger flight, carried over from our booking options.
Tell us your date, group size, and what you want to see, and we come back with a full quote.
It comes down to your schedule, the people flying with you, and why you want to fly. Match the flight to your trip rather than to the longest option on the list.
Longer is not always better. Some first-time flyers enjoy a shorter flight more, and a second flight is always an option later in your trip.
The cooler months, roughly October to April, usually bring the clearest air and the most comfortable conditions. In the summer heat, haze and dust can soften the view, especially over the coast.
Time of day matters too, and each slot gives a different flight.
Afternoon flights suit guests who want an unhurried morning and the softer light that comes later in the day. Late-afternoon slots are often the most popular with photographers.
If your dates are flexible, tell us what matters most to you- the view, the photos, or the occasion- and we will suggest a slot.
Takeoff is vertical, which feels different from a plane, and within moments the city spreads out below you. In calm conditions, most guests find the flight smoother than they expected.
Helicopters are louder than planes, so expect engine noise in the cabin. Seating is usually set by the crew for weight and balance, so a window seat cannot always be promised, though we pass on your preference.
First-time and nervous flyers are welcome. If you are prone to motion sickness, eat lightly beforehand, ask a pharmacist about remedies, and consider a shorter flight first.
On a shared flight, you book seats and fly with other guests on the same tour. It is the simplest way to fly and the lighter option in cost.
A private flight works differently. The helicopter is booked for your group of up to five, so the cabin and the photos are all yours, and couples, families, and anyone marking an occasion tend to choose it.
Still deciding? Tell us who is flying and what the trip is for, and we will point you to the right one.
Some flights are about more than the view. We book romantic flights for couples, proposal flights, night flights over the lit-up city, and private charters for groups and visiting guests.
For these, the planning matters as much as the flight itself. We help you choose the timing and the tour length, plus the small details that keep a surprise a surprise.
A flight makes a memorable present for a partner, a parent, or a friend. Tell us when you book that it is a gift, and we help you plan the timing so it stays a surprise until the day.
Helicopter tour booking in Dubai with us runs on a few messages, not a long form. Here is the full process from first contact to takeoff.
Your confirmation includes the helipad location, so you can plan a taxi or drive in good time. If you would like a hotel transfer, ask when you book, and we will tell you what can be arranged for your date.
We handle every booking from first message to landing, so you deal with one team the whole way. These are the things we commit to on every flight.
One team, start to finish.
Every flight follows the operator’s safety briefing and procedures. Your pilot runs the flight, and you follow the crew’s instructions from check-in to landing.
Weather comes first. Strong wind, haze, or low visibility can delay or move a flight, and if that happens, we help you reschedule.
Age, weight, and health requirements apply to every flight. We confirm them with you before you pay, so you know where you stand well before the day.
If weather grounds your flight, we help you move to another slot. For changes on your side, the cancellation terms for your booking are set out in writing in your confirmation, before you pay.
Your departure helipad and check-in time come in writing with your booking. Check-in and the safety briefing happen before takeoff, so arrive at the time we give you.
Pack light. These are the things worth bringing.
Large bags, tripods, and selfie sticks usually stay on the ground.
