Private Helicopter Tour Over Istanbul
See Istanbul from an entirely different perspective with a private helicopter tour over Istanbul city and the Bosphorus.
Our private Istanbul helicopter tour is ideal for couples, families and private groups looking for a memorable experience in Istanbul. It is also a unique choice for marriage proposals, anniversaries, birthdays and other special occasions.
From the Bosphorus bridges and Ottoman palaces to the historic peninsula and modern skyline, a helicopter flight offers panoramic views that are simply impossible to experience from the ground.
Your Private Helicopter Experience
A private vehicle will pick you up from your hotel and transfer you to the heliport, at the arranged time.
You will receive a short safety briefing from the flight crew, before departure. You will then board the helicopter and begin your panoramic flight over Istanbul.
Three flight durations are available:
- 30 minute helicopter flight
- 45 minute helicopter flight
- 60 minute helicopter flight
The longer flight options allow more time to explore different parts of Istanbul from the air.
You can enjoy spectacular views of the Bosphorus, historic Istanbul, the Asian and European sides of the city and many of Istanbul's most recognizable landmarks, during the flight.
Your private vehicle will be waiting to transfer you back to your hotel, after landing.
