The experience

Rio’s Icons, Seen from Above

From the moment the helicopter lifts off, Rio reveals a completely different sense of scale. Mountains rise between the city and the Atlantic, beaches curve along the coastline, and familiar landmarks become part of one uninterrupted panorama.

Depending on the selected route, the flight may offer aerial views of Christ the Redeemer, Sugarloaf Mountain, Copacabana, Ipanema, the Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon and other highlights. Every departure is coordinated according to availability, weather conditions and the experience you want to create.
