This will help you get your bearings as everything looks so different from this aerial perspective.
Each heli sightseeing session will give around eight minutes touring the skies. Now this may not sound very long in time but with the incredible manoeuvrability agility and speed of these aircraft you will travel an impressive 12 miles or so in that time depending on how busy the airspace is and prevailing weather conditions.
As well as checking out all the sights to be seen you will be swooping in low hovering and soaring graciously through the air in your heli – giving you ample opportunities to take some fabulous photos from an altitude of between 1000 an 1500ft.
