Helicopter Ride in Abu Dhabi

A helicopter ride over Abu Dhabi gives you an aerial view of the capital's landmarks, with a choice of a 17-minute or 30-minute flight departing from Al Mina, Mina Zayed. A trained pilot flies the route and narrates the sights as you go.

Once airborne, you fly over the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, the Presidential Palace and Emirates Palace, along with the country's tallest flagpole, taking in the scale of each landmark from above. Depending on your flight route, the helicopter also passes over the Arabian Gulf, the mangroves that line the coast, the Corniche, and islands such as Al Hudariyat, Reem and Yas. A safety briefing takes place before you board, and the pilot narrates the sights over your headset throughout the flight.
