About our Helicopter
Our decision to operate the Robinson R44 helicopter was quite easy. Why? because it’s the best helicopter for the job, it is the most utilized tour helicopter in the world. We chose to operate brand new helicopters, providing the best margins for safety and fun! All seats are facing forward and have a perfect panoramic view. Your safety is our top priority; the new design of the Robinson R44 helicopter enables us to carry all the latest equipment without compromising safety or performance. The R44 cabin and seating afford increased comfort – with noise-reduction headsets, passenger microphones, and luxurious interior.
