Open Door Helicopter Tour

If you book an open door experience, you can’t use a big camera. You can use a cell phone attached to a harness. It was a little scary (for me) but worth it

Helicopter tour was...

Helicopter tour was amazing…Vitor picked us up and provided us with history of the regions on the way to the heliport in perfect English, making the hour pass by quickly. The helicopter ride was incredible, full 45 min covering the major landmarks including circling around Christ the Reeder. Highly recommended!

Incredible Helicopter Tour + Fantastic Guide!

We had an amazing experience with this Rio helicopter tour from start to finish. Our English-speaking guide, Romayne, made the 45-minute drive to the heliport feel like part of the adventure. He shared so much interesting information about the different neighborhoods in and outside of Rio, giving us great context and helping us appreciate the city even more before we even took off. The helicopter tour itself was absolutely unforgettable—breathtaking views, smooth ride, and a truly unique way to see Rio’s landmarks from above. Everything felt safe, well-organized, and professional. Highly recommend this tour, especially with Romayne as your guide. It was one of the highlights of our trip!

30 minutes helicopter flight

We spent a wonderful day Romayne picked us up from our hotel with a chauffeur and took us to the heliport On the way, he explained the different landmarks we could see in the city After a short briefing, we took a 30-minute helicopter flight. The aircraft was nice and the pilot was very skilled. We saw all the classic landmarks of Rio with perfect viewpoints On the way back, we made two stops at the beaches. It was very complete and a really nice day Thank you!

Highly recommended

My experience was phenomenal. Romayne, my tour guide, was courteous and informative. He arrived punctually and picked me up from my hotel. At the heliport it was easy and simple no long wait. The pilot circled twice around Christ the Redeemer for which I am grateful! I would definitely recommend this tour company
