I’ve travelled to Dubai a few times and always love taking a helicopter tour to see the city from above. Nothing beats the feeling of flying over the tallest buildings in the world and taking in the beauty of this vibrant city!

As someone who’s experienced multiple different helicopter tours in Dubai, I can vouch for their quality and ensure that you’ll have an incredible time while you’re there.

I can personally recommend talking to other travellers who have experienced the different tours before making a decision – this way, you can get advice from people with first-hand knowledge and make an informed choice. So if you’re looking for an unforgettable experience in Dubai, why not consider booking yourself onto one of the many helicopter tours available?
