Sightseeing Tours

Your Sightseeing flight begins from our base in Aerodromo Son Bonet, just outside Palma city. We can fly over most places in Mallorca, apart from a small restricted area in the Palma area, and therefore you will be able to choose where you would like to go, especially if there is something particular you’d like to see such as your hotel, or villa. On the other hand your experienced pilot will be more than happy to recommend a route to see the best views of the island.

A typical route is from Aerodromo Son Bonet; flying past Palma city, up to the spectacular north coast to Valldemosa, Deia and Soller then across the peaks of the same Tramuntana mountain range and back to Aerodromo Son Bonet on a different route.

The sightseeing flights range from 15, 30, 45 minutes, or 1 hour.

We also offer “The Big One” Sightseeing Tour, of the Mallorca coastline in its entirety, which lasts 2 hours 30 minutes and includes light refreshments and chilled Champagne on board.

The helicopters we operate are the Robinson R44, which can seat 3 passengers plus pilot.

Your instructor will give you a ground briefing on the helicopter, the controls, how it flies and what to expect. Then you’ll accompany your instructor onto the flight line and assist in a helicopter pre-flight inspection.

Once safely back on the ground you’ll receive a Souvenir Map and Gift to commemorate your special day, and you can ask any questions you may
have. The Trial Lesson is actually part of the official training course towards your Private Pilots Licence! If, at the end of your flight you’d like a Certificate to show that you’ve completed the Helicopter Trial Lesson please let us know.
