Description
Soar above the picturesque landscapes of Santorini and the surrounding sea on an unforgettable helicopter trip over the island. Spot the volcanic formations of the caldera and the charming, white-washed villages like Fira and Oia on a thrilling ride over the Aegean gem. The experience of taking off in a helicopter is like no other. As you rise vertically, the ground shrinks away and you lift off into the blue skies. Head out over the azure waters of the Aegean Sea toward Santorini's half-submerged caldera. Learn about the fascinating geological history of this former island, which collapsed following an ancient eruption, and catch sight of the nearby active volcano—Nea Kameni.

Honeymoon Helicopter Flight
We had an incredible experience. Views are spectacular. Our pilot was named Roman and he was friendly, professional and informative. The driver to and from the experience was also great in a very comfortable vehicle. Everyone really makes it a very special and private experience for you. I would highly recommend this activity to anyone.

Worth it!!
Loved this. Highly recommend doing this on your first day. It gives you a great perspective of the entire island and where everything is situated. Our pilot gave us a brief tour with some historical points along the way which was a nice touch. The only thing is that the helicopter is small and people in the back won’t have a great view. Still worth it though.

Unforgettable Experience
Amazing experience from the start. The transfer was in a nicely air conditioned mini bus, and the driver was very friendly and informative - the transfer itself was like a mini tour of the island. Our pilot Daniel was great, very enthusiastic and offered to go through all the technical information and checks before take off, which my dad loved. The flight itself was breathtaking, the best way to see the island and caldera. Daniel pointed out all the various landmarks and points of interest, and explained everything very well. And at the end, the driver offered to drop us anywhere on the island if we wanted to go somewhere other than back to the hotel. If you're contemplating booking this trip - just go ahead and do it!
